All-time best recordings for romance


What is your vote for the all-time best hedonistic music--- music to set the romantic flames afire? PLEASE let's maintain the high road on this. I have no desire to see this most genuine inquiry turned into a discussion thread for jokes, porn, smut, etc. Thank you in advance for your good taste.

kennyt. depends on whether you're into fish or camels (the animal, not the cancer stick). to each his own, eh? BTW, what the hell went wrong with your taste after the zappa concert? tori amos? portishead? i'd prefer eating my own vomit. but then the other apparently "sincere" posts on this thread would do tipper gore proud, too. fam124? sounds like you're heavily into "family values" and the abridgement of 1st amendment freedoms that's part of the pogrom.
Willie Nelson Stardust is also a winner in the romance category. I normally wouldn't suggest a c&w artist, but this album transcends the genre into romance.
I think it depends who your with.If your with someone more conservative or classical, CANON from PACHELBEL, another classic would be the ADAGIO by ALBINONI, that one seems to turn any woman into that soft but yet firm substance called play-do! If they're more into commercial or soft rock, you could go for Chris De Burgh and his album "The love Songs", or maybe some Marvin Gay or Roberta Flack.For someone more ravy you have to listen to CAFE DEL MAR "volumen seis"(volume six)or the album "Tattoo" by Jay Jay Johanson and another good one would be "Sao Paulo Confessions" by SUBA. For someone more jazzy Diana Krall is a safe bet, or you could try the album "Deep Song" by Ranee Lee or maybe Holly Cole Trio "Don't Smoke in bed". Me, for my favorites, I would have to go with the language of love... French! Joe Dassin with the album "Les Plus Grandes Chansons" or listen to the album "Comic Strip" by Serge Gainsbourg, you have to listen to song number twenty(Je t'aime... moi non plus), this song, at the time(1969), was considered so HOT that it was censored from some countries like Spain, England,Italy,Sweden...hey, if it was censored in Sweden, it must tell you something!!! Another good one would be Jacques Brell, he is the one that wrote the song that was voted the most beautiful song of all time "Ne Me Quitte Pas", you might know this song from other singers like Nina Simone or Sting, as it was used by a lot of singers. Et voilà mes choix s'arrete là!
