    Right, I was working the other day minding my own business when this idea popped into my head after observing so many couples Eating dinner in the pub where i worked,

    Now it was just after Race week and the candles were still on all the tables in teh Bar so I got the Idea to light them, now romantic as it was it still seemed not the most moodiest place and after watching a few people just Scoff their food and leave I began to get thinking while pouring a pint, then the Bar manager who was off asked me to turn Off that awful Radio show and pop on a cd he just had bought, Now teh cd was classical Jazz, no Lyrics , just various instruments being played...
    Well it went down a treat cause it is definitly Relaxing to say teh Least but not only that, the Place seemed to Fill up aswell with couples Having the most Romantic Fish and Chips I've ever seen....and so for no Reason I've decided to Pass on this piece of Advice to people...

    If you want to "Woo" the woman of your dreams, and yee are enjoying a Romantic Meal together, Classical Jazz with no Lyrics and just some Candle-liht will most definitly get her into the Mood....just dont ruin it by telling crap jokes.....or being Nekkid when she arrives!

    Satanic Death Metal, goes down a treat also.

    I find if you make a space in the middle of the floor start urinating on a dead sheep, with a look of complete insanity, couples will actually start making out there and then mad.gif

    Marvin Gaye "What's Going On" ---- Of course you may not get to finish the meal with this on.

    Also another one that's relaxing and brilliant is Van Morrison "Astral Weeks" ---- I don't care if people think he's ****e now, his first album was absolutely ****ing brilliant.

    Also maybe Nick Cave + The Bad Seeds "The Boatman's Call" or a bit of classical music

    Classical, or proper spanish guitar instrumentals smile.gif

    Then again if you're wooing a goth chick maybe "the damned" would work better biggrin.gif

    anything in the baroch stylee of classical music is nice.
    handels water music is good and mozart is good as well, coz theres little of the thumping ride of the valkeries type stuff there smile.gif

    Anything other than the cranium-boring Ravi Shankar-stylee stuff they insist on in most Indian restaurants. It's hard to be romantic when some git is pitching his whiny, incomprehensible, warbling over some plinky-plinky tune which sounds like you've been transported back to childhood and your sister's just opened the lid on her wind-up jewellery box.

    Werl, try some contemporary stuff as well - Air, Nightmares On Wax, Massive Attack, general jazzy, chill-out tunes.

    Fatboy Slim's 'The Weekend Starts Here' was a lucky one for me... wink.gif

    What about Texas, but only if she doesn't have a Sharleen Spiteri hang-up.

    id have to agree with Sico, Air 'Moon Safari' is a brillant album. really relaxing. My girlfriend loves it

    There are lots of good ones, but if I have to choose one, I'd go for Natural Woman by Aretha Franklin.

    Think about the situation first though. No girl is going to feel Aretha Franklin for you on a first date. Something funny romantic like Rupert Holmes's The Pina Colada Song would be more appropriate in that case.

    Oh and remember you are not Elton John, so don't sing along ;)

    Aaagh, I hate panpipes.

    Miles Davis' Kind of Blue should do the job (a little less upfront than Marvin Gaye's Let's Get It On, though that can do the job in the comfort of your own home probably.
