Hlao-roo 389 Posted November 22, 2002 Share Posted November 22, 2002 The pulsating wood blocks in 'The Conspirators' from JFK should do the trick... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RomanticStrings 10 Posted November 22, 2002 Share Posted November 22, 2002 If anything, I've learned that most people want background music out of movie scores. That means nusic that is not intrusive. I would recommend, thus, Schindler's List, Main Title from Rudy, and Hymn to the Sea (Titanic). It doesn't matter what the music was written for, but what it makes you feel.~Conor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlesk 0 Posted November 22, 2002 Share Posted November 22, 2002 The E.T. music that was supposed to be used when ET is with Elliot installing the signaling device. Strings simulating the wind. If she doesn't fall with this, leave her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eplicon 53 Posted November 22, 2002 Share Posted November 22, 2002 Somewhere in Time always works. Chicks dig that film & score. Or rather, they dig that piano piece, "Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganni."Romeo and Juliet has many nice romantic moments.Body Heat has a track called "Kill for Pussy" that might work...

Lurker 5 Posted November 22, 2002 Share Posted November 22, 2002 The score to Debbie Does Dallas worked pretty well for the people in that film. Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mark 3,631 Posted November 23, 2002 Share Posted November 23, 2002 Here's my advise,keep the film music out of the evening(or at least save it for after you get somehere with this girl).Go buy a compilation of mushy trendy pop tunes,that will do just fine.K.M.

mahler3 478 Posted November 23, 2002 Share Posted November 23, 2002 Anything (well almost) by Georges Delerue should have her reeling with romantic intentions.Check out Varese' compilation as part of the 'Great Composers' series, it's gorgeous!James N. Howard's 'Prince Of Tides' is also a winner (IMO, and experience )Williams wise, i would agree with Miguel re 'Sabrina', would also include The Balloon sequence from 'Witches Of Eastwick' & 'Jane Eyre's' theme.

Romão 2,274 Posted November 23, 2002 Share Posted November 23, 2002 I couldn't do that. Could you, King Mark, could you live like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romão 2,274 Posted November 23, 2002 Share Posted November 23, 2002 Anyway, besides Sabrina, I would recomend Mina and Dracula by Wojiciech Kilar and Chase Noir from Batman Forever (one of my all-time love-themes). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Barnsbury 8 Posted November 23, 2002 Share Posted November 23, 2002 Out of Africa (Barry), Pearl Harbor (Zimmer). Of course, you have a wide selection of Williams love themes as well.Ray Barnsbury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 23, 2002 Share Posted November 23, 2002 Stefan,I can only give you some titles which my girlfriend happens to like. She's not into film music at all (like most girls are not into film music; most people are actually not into film music...), but she kind off liked these pieces:* The Portrait (Titanic). I used to play this for her on the piano. * La Califfa by Ennio Morricone. You probably don't know this piece, but it's extremely romantic and one of the most gorgeous melodies I know. It's truly amazing.* ...Well; that's it actually. The months we spend together I didn't really listen to film music at all. Maybe she would have liked more, but we were way to busy doing other things.... Bye!Roald Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miz 139 Posted November 24, 2002 Share Posted November 24, 2002 Band of BrothersA slow but very romantic score. Some tracks are obviously very inappropriate, but Austria or some of the earlier tracks may work. I think they're more of a romantic mood setter than a romantic night-of-passion accompaniment.

Trumpeteer 302 Posted November 29, 2002 Share Posted November 29, 2002 4. Pillow Talk- Basic Instinct (Jerry Goldsmith) That sounds like more of third-date music. Those pulsing strings.....if I were on a first date I'd know exactly what the owner of that CD was going after. Glad to hear it went well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to hear it went well.I never claimed it was for a first date.We were actually celebrating the fact that it was six months since we first met.As for including that Basic Instinct cue, i did it primarily because i wanted to examine how it would work.Now i know.

Hoorn right.Have you settled already, or do you still need to get used to it?Cleaning up is the worst part isn't it?Anyway, does this mean you'll be hosting a Williams party soon?(The prick always understands at what point to press people to do something that the person doesn't want, but the rest do.)
