timepiececlockI am trying to write a fanfic where it involves an epic make-out moment, and... I don't know what to listen to!
Music is VITAL to my writing process. And all I can seem to find to listen to on my comp is break-up songs! ARGH!
I need some quick recs. Something sweeping. Romantic. Swooning. Swooping. Other cleaning & vertical movement metaphors, I don't know. I'm not asking for links, just names I can play from youtube or something. Anything to jolt my brain into the right sphere of sappy romantic thinking! They can be totally mainstream, too. I don't discriminate in my pop.
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeellllllllllllppppppppppppppppppp!
ETA: The pairing I'm trying to write for is Uhura/Spock, if that helps.
ETA 3: 1. You guys are so thoughtful for responding! 2. I don't think my romantic vernacular matches everyone else's, apparently. I should figure out how to fix that. To clarify my confusing and incomprehensible request above: Not slow songs, because slow songs tend to be sad even if they are romantic and my brain thinks sweeping/swooning/epic = big music and energy. Seventy-six bloody trombones.

OH CELINE DION, YOU SOFT ROCK MY WORLD.

IN YOUR EYES - THE LIGHT, THE HEAT. IN YOUR EYES - I AM COMPLETE. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zrzr4R3LpsQ)
If its good enough for John Cusack, its good enough for me!
I first heard that song in an X Files vid! Oh, fandom days gone by!

Date: 2009-06-03 07:05 am (UTC)I've...never seen this before. I am overcome with a need to do a running commentary!
1. Wow, the lyrics are being taken literally with the car thing.
2. Wow, Peter Gabriel is pretty weird looking.
3. OMG, they're actually using giant zooms of eyeballs!
4. Wow, at 1:44 he looks like a giant fish face with the eyes on either side and oooh, that's weird.
5. Mysterious white flashes over a naked Peter Gabriel. Metaphor???
6. The churches I get (lyrics), but the small heart candies? Je suis muy confused.
7. Lady jumping from bed in a dream illusion and reappearing in front of her mirror? Shadow hands floating in fuchsia/purple light? I did not realize this was going to be a horror movie.
8. I give up. You win, video. I concede. You have bested me and my intellect cannot decipher what I see in your eyes.
