Late night tunes

[Xavier_Blake]

Following on from my post in the current Xmas mix track list thread, what tunes are (almost) guaranteed to soften up a   at the end of an evening?

For me, it has always been Beginnings by Astrud Gilberto, and obviously you have the cliched (but often a winner) "What's Going On" by Marvin Gaye (or "Sexual Healing", but that's a little too obvious for my liking), and for Noel Gallagher it was (supposedly) Burt Bacharach (although I always felt he was just jumping on that "early-90s-lounge-is-cool" bandwagon).

I was kind of assumed that if you've got the bird at your place at the end of the evening, I don't really need to break out the smooch to freak her... Avoid Oasis.

talking getting priorities wrong, there's a bit in the George Melly autobiography about some jazz player he knew who would only make love while listening to Sidney Bechet records, and would keep getting out of bed to change the record... and this was in the days of 78s

p diddy told in an interview that he has a special "bonking section" in his ipod. now who listens to an ipod in bed? cordless headphones a gogo.

Blimey, and they've only got small holes.  

Yakyakyak...

you could always try what george carter from 'the sweeney' did when he managed to entice a new bird back to his drum in one episode - slip on a prime slice of deWolfe library action...

ok, she ended up leaving half-way through the meal, but y'know...

Such discussions always remind me of MacArthur Park. No my choice but I was not going to argue.

Thus my inordinate fondness for The Harris.

Last time I had to think about this, *was* during the days of 78s....

Yeah Ive played the old 'stick on a record to great a smoochy ambience' trick.

And yep got pissed off every 20 mins flipping the record over.

Its all about having a 'smooooooth' playlist in itunes/winamp.
