"Je t'aime . . . moi non plus" by Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin was considered quite sexy in the 60s, the decade which of course invented sex. Probably a bit tame by today's standards. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFl2RC6kyVw I've really got the hang of this internet lark, adding youtube links. Blame it on Cath.

Nude portfolio?! Can I have your friends, Yan? To answer your question, I have to find the likes of Nirvana, Puddle of Mud & Nickleback sexyâ€¦ oh, and the theme to Starsky & Hutchâ€¦ â€¦ Perhaps not Nine Inch Nailsâ€¦ ~PEPS~ You canâ€™t finish a man till heâ€™s finished his Texan Bar

Sexy music is whatever turns you on. There's the blindingly obvious like 'The Stripper', there's the ironic like 10cc's 'I'm Not In Love', there's the beautiful like Tom Waits' 'Martha' or you might prefer something large and explosive like Beethoven's 'Song of Joy'. It's what works with the sequence that counts.

Thanks guys. Bruce, that's uncanny because she is french. I'll have to dig that one out. I was thinking along the lines of sexy 70's funk or some dirty sax instrumental. I'm trying to steer clear of commercial stuff because I'll get shafted for copyright. :) There's nothing more mind-teasing than the incomprehensible eagerly avowed - Dennett

"I'm Your Man" - Leonard Cohen... good and sleazy! "Unfinished Sympathy" - Massive Attack... such a sexy vibe "Black Flute" - Leftfield... same "Miss World" - Hole... 'I'm Miss World... somebody kill me..." Okay...

How about 'Peaches' by the Stranglers? *guffaws* I can't see how a nude portfolio could be anything but cheesy when accompanied by music, but if I were making one, I'd probably use something softer and New Agey, harps or a single flute or something, which *might* make it more elegant. Steve Roach does some good stuff. Using 70s funk would make it 'sound' more like porno; then again, I haven't seen the photos/fillim so maybe it is! :-)

Thanks for your comments guys, it helped alot actually. I've cheesed it down, thought "respectable" and chosen this one: http://jruaux.free.fr/clips/Gene_Harris_and_the_Three_Sounds_-_Put_on_Tr... which I'm gonna loop under a voice-over in wavelab I only get asked to do these things because I have the studio equipment - I'm pretty crap at vid. What do you think as a track. Imagine slow-fade photographs interspersed with short photoshoot vid clips. There's nothing more mind-teasing than the incomprehensible eagerly avowed - Dennett

Shame you've already chosen yan! I think the sexiest song in the world is "I don't want nobody" by Eddie Harris (to be found on his album "I need some money" [Atlantic Recording Corp/Atlantic Original Sound CD]. It's 11 minutes and 52 seconds long (not that there is any special meaning in this, ahem) and it is multilayered, multirhythmic, multitonal stuff which even has some hand clapping in it towards the end! Ok, that last element is maybe less sexy.

http://www.freewebs.com/michaeljamestreacy/index.htm Great post, Galfreda! I think I'd struggle with the hand clapping bit, though. Ever since I stopped smoking... I just need a quick snooze.

Galfreda - I haven't chosen yet. I've milked that track I thought was suitable and it's not. It's like AG said - it's too 'porn'. I'm going to have to make a list of all these songs and download them/check them out. I tried to find summer breeze by the isley brothers but couldn't hunt it down - i'll have to try singingfish or somewhere. The more songs the merrier...I'm sure one's gonna hit the nail on the head. I spent all last night rummaging through tracks at home and just can't get it. There's nothing more mind-teasing than the incomprehensible eagerly avowed - Dennett

hey alan...some great recommendations there. I think you may have got something with Hole. You know, punk it up a little, give her some attitude...i think that's gonna work. I'm thinking the naked surfer advert. There's nothing more mind-teasing than the incomprehensible eagerly avowed - Dennett

I'd go for massive attack's unfinished sympathy every time. sublime and classy. The one you've chosen sounds like it's been lifted off a low budget early seventies porn vid. mind you, i dunno what the pics are like... that might suit them.

I thought about that one...I found the original...but it was too depressing. I need something dark but beautiful, romantic but not too cheesy sloppy kissy kinda romantic. Can't find any hole. Gonna keep flicking through some massive attack. Cheers There's nothing more mind-teasing than the incomprehensible eagerly avowed - Dennett

The first thing that came to mind was something by Roxy Music. What about "Beauty Queen?" ... That may be too weird though.

Thanks for your suggestions. It's been a big help actually. Judge for yourself: i started with some cheesy porn crap and have ended up with this. It's perfect.
