The Fall. What do I win?

To the OP: My suggestion would be the Van Morrison album “Into The Music”, especially the original B-side (last four songs). Very seductive.

I’m coming back once more because this thread must not die without a mention of Dusty Springfield’s “Dusty In Memphis”. If this doesn’t get you in the mood, then nothing does.

My choices don’t really seem coherent. Different times, different moods, different soundtracks. Maybe that’s how it should be.

**No Ordinary Love** - Sade

**Catch The Rainbow** (live) - Rainbow

**Busenfreunde** - Tosca (plus countless other Kruder&Dorfmeister tracks)

**Feelin’ Love** - Paula Cole (isn’t this on _everyone’s_ list?)

**Wicked Game** - Chris Isaak

**This Corrosion** - Sisters of Mercy (original version, no remixes thank you)

**Fields Of Gold** - Sting

\*\*Black Coffee \*\*(entire album) - Peggy Lee

**I Wanna Get Next To You** - Rose Royce

**Every Day Of The Week** - Jade

**Good Times** - Aretha Franklin (if the mood’s right)

First one that came to mind was Black Velvet by Alannah Myles  
Constant Craving KD Lang or Channel Cole  
Natural Woman Carole King  
quite a few of the ones already listed - especially Magic Man

“Oh My God” by Pink.

I don’t follow Pink all that much, but the first time I heard it… well…

[![](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ObLlaX3TgLE/hqdefault.jpg "5.Oh My God- P!nk(feat. Peaches)- Try This") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObLlaX3TgLE)

I can’t hear it and NOT get all hot and bothered.
