Romantic songs, love making music - what puts you in the mood for love? I'm talking about songs that get your heart beating and make you feel warm all over. I'm talking about music that leads you in only one direction, straight into the arms of your lover.
You could ask 100 people what their favorite romantic music is and you'll get many different answers from many different genres of music. Classical, jazz, pop, R & B, rock, ambient... there really isn't any type of music that isn't considered romantic to someone.
No matter what your answer is, no matter what type of music you enjoy, if you think it's romantic you're right!
Science Proves It
What does love sound like to you?
Without going too deep into the technical stuff, there is a whole lot of science that explains why music help us get in the mood for love.
Things happen in your brain, your nerves, your heart, and your whole body when you hear songs that you consider romantic lovemaking music.
Ever hear of entrainment? That's when organisms synchronize themselves to an external rhythm. Certain tones and rhythms will cause your brainwaves to sync that external rhythm.
Your body actually changes to match the rhythm of romantic songs that get you thinking about lovemaking and soon you are in the mood.
Of course that is a very basic explanation and only part of the big picture. Without going totally scientific on you here, and admittedly leaving out tons of relevant information, that explains why music helps us get in the mood.
Do I Make You Randy?!
Is it the music or is it him? Music, like a man (or woman) is only a piece of the puzzle that makes up romance. He looks a certain way, he looks at you in a certain way, you smell his cologne, you see his eyes sparkle by candle light...
Sweet sounds from your sweetheart
As that sweet melody plays softly in the background you wonder, was it him or the wine that caused the wave of heat that just came over you?
Probably by that point it doesn't really matter. You're in the mood for love, for the feel of your lovers arms around you, and the music just makes it that much easier to be on the same wavelength.
Now that is truly what it means to march to the beat of the same drum.
So, What Is The Best Romantic Music?
You'll know it when you feel it. There is no one right answer.
Today my favorite love making music has no words, just sounds like rain and Tibetan bowls. Tomorrow I might be in the mood for sappy romantic songs that were popular as I was falling in love with my wife. The day after it might be whatever happens to be playing in the background as I notice the way she looks in her work clothes.
The best romantic music is whatever tickles your fancy at the moment
At the top of my list of favorite romantic songs is classical. There are no words to get in the way or guide me in any particular direction.
All the feelings come from inside me and my thoughts as I connect to the sound. A soft touch is purely what I feel and translate from sound to actions.
The best romantic songs are, of course, whatever happens to increase, prolong, create, initiate, ignite, or otherwise inspire the mood for love.
We all have our own list depending on what kind of lovemaking mood we're in. Romance comes in many different sizes, shapes, colors, and sounds.

This has to be my favorite romantic song mostly because my girlfriend loves this dude and this song. I turned the song off one time and she freaked on ...
Unchained Melody Righteous Brothers

First song for the first time we ever made love. Still "our" song, and the way we end a long stressful day.
