[atlantaprog] Re: Proggy love songs

I've consulted with my girlfriend, and after telling her that The Beatles PROBABLY didn't count as prog, per se, she agreed with my last statement about none of this being as seductive as soul/funk/disco.
That said, I feel remiss that I didn't mention any of the amorous offerings of Daevid Allen. Yeah, he and Gilli rocked the psychosexual boundry within the prog format.

Step one,,, the seduction stage.

I Hear You Now by Jon & Vangelis
Cinema Show By Genesis
Anything off of Avalon by Roxy Music
Turn of the Century by YES. (there's a version with Steve Howe and Sandy Denny that I really like) 
Safe (Canon Song) By Chris Squire
From The Beginning by ELP
Heartbeat, Waiting Man, Matte Kudasai by King Crimson
Woman by John Lennon
Fripp & Eno's Evening Star



Step two...  The turning point

Love is the Drug by Roxy Music



step three,,, in the clinches (or the bump and grind)

Ladies of the Road by King Crimson
Larks Tongues Pt. 2 By King Crimson (it worked for one of the Emanuelle movies) 
Innagoddadavida BABY!!! for those with endurance :-)



Note-
NONE of this will get you "laid". I mean c'mon, none of this compares to Otis Redding or Marvin Gaye for seductive power... Or even Gino Vanelli... ;-)

The world may have had enough of Silly love songs but how about proggy ones? I am looking for a nice grouping of love songs for my valentines day show next week. So here are some things to think about: Have you ever used a prog song to woo a loved one? Have you ever used a prog song in a mixtape? Is there a prog song that is particularly sexual in nature, or that really sets the mood for a romantic/hang from the ceiling sort of night? Is there any prog song that makes it easier for you to communicate the feeling of love?
Universal love like Yes is ok, but I would like to pull it down to Romantic love and just plain sex. Your suggestions are appreciated. 

Cheers,
Woody
