#17  ThePerfectSongFor .. seduction

By reputation, there is an art to seduction. It's an intricate and delicate web spun by the protagonist, who needs all the tricks of the trade available. In its best form, you are never quite sure who is doing the seducing and who is getting seduced. Whatever the case, you are going to need the perfect song. Journalists and writers Fred de Vries and Tim Cohen are joined by entrepreneur and musician Gary Rathbone to discuss the finer details of songs of seduction, and the perfect song for couch ballet. Our choices are: Wicked Game - Chris Isaak; Lover’s Rock - The Clash; Je T’aime moi non plus: Serge Gainsbourg/JaneBirkin; Wild is the Wind - David Bowie, Diamonds, FurCoat, Champagne - Suicide; Dirty Diesel - Paul Westerherg; Body Language - Isaac Hayes; Nights in White Satin - The Moody Blues and Your Love Is King - Sade. And the timing is great for Gary, who has just brought out a new album, Where We End Is Where We Begin, available here https://orcd.co/mr-opportunity He is also launching the album at The Radium Beer Hall, on Saturday, September 14th 2024.
