<font color="lightblue">
I would be interested to know what somg is the one that says all the right words in your opinion. The lyrics seem to speak from your heart and say exactly everything that you wish that you could say. Or, maybe you feel that there is no song out there to say it the way you feel it. Have you ever thought about writing it yourself?

Next question...Does anyone find themselves attracted to somebody because of their foreign accent? What about languages, generally...do you get the hots for a guy or girl that speaks french? Has anyone ever wondered why the French are the ones that get the attention for romantic language? I can speak in Spanish and attract attention just as good as anyone can in French...

Feel free to answer or comment to any one or all of my above stated inquiries.</font>

Er,well, yes and no. About the music, nah I cant really find a song that would seem to express my feelings.

But then again I have never erally been in love..

About the Accents, yes, I do find the french launge,,,atracting.

Ive always thought an English accent made a cute girl way more attractive, as for a song it depends what Im feeling, but both Ben Harper and the Counting Crows have a few good ones in my humble opinion, and of course Bobby Dylan

The song "I miss you" by Incubus

here are the lyrics:

To see you when I wake up
Is a gift I didn't think could be real
To know that you feel the same as I do
Is a three-fold, utopian dream
You do something to me that I can't explain
So would I be out of line
If I said, I miss you.(?)
I see your picture, I smell your skin
On the empty pillow next to mine
You have only been gone ten days,
but already I'm wasting away.
I know I'll see you again whether far or soon.
But I need you to know that I care and I miss you.

My all time favourite song ;)

And about the accent well Im currently wooing [img]tongue.gif[/img] a mexican girl who I lived in NZ with who has a spanish accent.

<font color="lightgreen"> I have had a sneak erm.. listen to a pending artists songs. The guys name is CrownD... hes my brother.

One of his songs (Serenity Blind) does sort of express it. DONT ASK HOW. This is one of his early songs, and he wont be performing it in public.. he SAYS it lacks talent... i disagree.

This is the chorus of it (and all of it that i know :D )

We are they in the Untold land
Where the fires burn and the Witches sing
And dogs run free to rule mankind,
We are they in seranity Blind.


As i said, dont ask HOW i think that answers this question.. it just, does. </font>

The song by Aerosmith (done for the movie Armegeddon--damn, whats the name of it!) I can hear it in my mind but the title escapes me. It's beautiful and poignant--

Accents don't attract me, per se, as much as the voice itself. Certain timbres really are turn-ons, rich voices with deep resonance, a certain manner of speaking. I've been to Europe and it didn't matter whether in France, Italy, Spain, Sicily or Greece--it was an almost undefinable quality that sparked me rather than the lingual accent.

Hi, Larry. I hate to be old and boring and predictable, but the Lennon/McCartney song "Carry That Weight" has always seemed to sum it all up for me. Also, I have always been a sucker for a guy with an English accent, but, I'm married to one from Texas, like me. Like I say, boring and predictable. :D

Garnet FalconDance...
That song would be "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing".
It was also done by Mark Chestnut (country).

I can't think of a perfect song that says everything I want to say to those I love. But, "Time in a Bottle" Jim Croce comes close.

As far a poingnant songs or melodies to touch the heart, in my humble opinion, nothing beats celtic music. Anyone who has heard Loreena McKennitt or Clannad can testify to this.

Accents are a turn on. Always have been. Maybe because they are exotic or different from what we hear everyday.

Garnet FalconDance 01-18-2002 07:56 AM

That's it, Wulfere! Thanks. The lyrics keep going thru the brain but the title slithers on by... (The country version should never have been recorded it was so inferior)

Galadria, don't think of being boring and predictable---think of being comfortably cozy.

Well, Larry, you finally goaded me into posting something. [img]tongue.gif[/img] ;)

Knowing I can't resist such a subject (see my sig), I'd have to say this:

On the song issue, some that have been mentioned here are good, but lately, there's been Enya's "Only Time" and I just heard on the way in to work this morning Shania Twain's (I think) song (not sure of the title), but I think it's "From This Moment"...

As to the accent...yes, I find 'foreign' accents sexy. French and Spanish are good, but I really like the German accent myself. ;) *hmmm...I wonder why that is...* ;) [img]tongue.gif[/img]
