BLOG BATTLE! Sean & Steve's Love-o-rama!

Hey, baby, how you doin'? Mmm-mmm, you're lookin' fine tonight, girl. Welcome to Chateau Seany, where all your dreams come true. Why don't you sit next to me, lemme rub your shoulders, take the stress away. Yeah, that's it, that's it, sit back, relax and -- oh, hey, get up, get up, I'm not kidding, you're sitting on one of my vintage Hulk comics. Jeez, not cool, not cool at all. They're mint, okay?.....No biggie, no biggie, aww yeah, we're good, we're good now. So where were we, baby? Can I pour you a drink? It's Colt 45, chilled just right. If it's okay with Billy Dee, it's okay with me. Heh heh. That's it, drink up. Mmmm, yeah. I like your foamy beer mustache, baby. It's sexy, thick, malt-liquory.

Hey, how about we put some music on? I made a lil' Valentine's Day mix for you, 15 sweet soulful party starters. My friend Spearsy, he think he's so cool. He made a mix, too. You can check it out later for a few laughs. I told him he doesn't know what he's talking about when it comes to setting the romantic mood, getting down with date night. Spandau Ballet? Please. That's why he's home alone, watching Red Dawn in his tightie-whities. And that's why I'm here with you, my sweet foamy princess. So lemme take your glass. Lemme press play. And you just enjoy the floor show. 'Cause all my shirts come with seven buttons, baby, if you know whattamean. Take it away, Otis...

Seans Supa Seduction Playlist

Comments

[Blaine]

As a card-carrying member of Stuck in the '80s Nation, I love ya, but was all set to rip your playlist... until I saw "Love on a Real Train" on there. Well played!

[It's a Holiday!!!]

Monday,

Don't forget your:

stove pipe ccok
and
your axe handle of love

will they fit inside your mantyhose?

[Gary in Gilroy]

Bassnote, I think "Let's get it on" is #15, not by way of ranking, but in terms of playlist order. Once Marvin starts the jam, the clothes start flying,, as he's gradually drowned out by the squeeking of the posturpedic springs...it's baby-makin' time...

[Sit on my FaceBook]

And tell me that you love me!

[Bassnote]

Let's Get It On at # 15?! Are you insane? That song was practically responsible for most of the children born in 1973.

[Jamaica Mistaica]

I wished you would have talked like this on the beaches of Montego Bay.

[Clark]

I'm disappointed that neither of you have any Teddy Pendergrass, but at least you both included Marvin Gaye. Marvin's like Greg Maddux; he'll give you 7 or 8 strong innings every time but when you need someone to come in and bring nothing but serious heat to seal the deal, Teddy P is Goose Gossage.

[Marissa]

*curtsies*
Creepiness Factor. Excellent!

[don in tulsa]

the kings of leon tune is very good but that's about as far as i can go on this list.

[moved away]

uh.....i think you need a restraining order for you know who....

all in all, mazzy star is really the only one that's my style. i guess you & I are never gonna get to jump in the sack together..

too bad....you & the ff have a great valentines day!

[DerekT]

Well Chad, I Can't Fight this Feeling was the song for me and at least 2 girlfriends in the 80's since I was a huge REO fan then and now. It even played at my wedding, I had forgotten the two songs I had paid the organist to play during the actual wedding and hearing Can't Fight This Feeling being played on an old organ in a 2 hundred year old church in Germany is something I will never forget. The other song was Friends and Lovers by Eddie Rabbitt and I want to say Juice Newton, but I may be wrong.

not to worry baby, your frothy little come-bunny loooooves you too

[Shocked and awed]

Ewwww! I think I just threw up in my mouth.

[CHAD]

well derek, personally i prefer can't fight this feeling, but keep on loving you was the first power ballad. many will say dream on, love hurts, or even babe, but reo's classic was the first to use heavy guitars in a ballad. as the decade wore on, keep on loving was the template of the power ballad. a very soft and sensitive slow song with a dramatic guitar solo in there, and viola, pure gold. as far as warrant is concerned, i like sometimes she cries. to me, it's their best ballad.

[Steve Spears]

Feel free to start e-mailing must-includes for that power-ballad show and we'll start working on it.

Oh, no, no, no, NO! Sean! Which vintage Hulk comic did she sit on?! Tell me it wasn't #181. If it was, how could you leave the first full issue appearance of Wolverine lying around where Miss doesn't-look-where-she's-sitting could plant her big butt on it? It's worth up to $1400!

If this happened to me, she'd be out of there. Partly because I'd be so emotionally distraught that I'd want her to go, but, mainly, because she'd realize what a geek I am and would want to go.

Then I'd sit there alone, sobbing over the wreckage of one of my most cherished possessions, and wonder, "Is this why I never get the girl?"

[DerekT]

Great idea Chad. I think Keep on Loving You should be the top power ballad. Also Whitesnakes Here we go Again, Warrant's I saw Red (one of the best songs of betrayal ever) Journey's Faithfully, Kiss Tears are Falling, and several others. Come on Sean and Steve, it would be a great podcast.

[CHAD]

or better yet, that long talked about top 10 power ballads of the 80s. get on spears, we need some metal on the podcast.

[CHAD]

so is this gonna be a subject of a new podcast?

[Miguel]

Sean ma`man you know we love you,but by adding Mazzy Star and João Gilberto in the playlist my respect for you increased 34,79% .Well done! Talking about Bossa Nova gotta add "Girl from Ipanema" by Jobim.
Other sexy tunes:
Whisper-Morphine
Need You Tonight-INXS
Move With Me-Neneh Cherry
This is Hardcore-Pulp

Sexiest song of all time,Let`s Get It On-Marvin Gaye is a must.

[CHAD]

this is a good list, although i haven't heard of a lot of the tunes. gotta love otis redding, but frank would have to go. as much as i love the king, there are much better tunes from him. let's get it on is soooo overplayed. i'm sorry, but when i hear it, i think of austin powers. what about true love ways by buddy holly? prince has made much better songs, as well. where's missing you by john waite and allison krauss? both of ya'll lists have standouts, and some questionable tunes. as a 80s fan, i might have to side with spears, but barely. he does have some questionable songs on his as well. c'mon, true, thompson twins, asia, jackson browne, and two bryan ferry songs, just don't cut it. but since i know most of the songs on his list, i'll have to side with spears, but not by much.

[DerekT]

I like Steve Spear's list a lot better. It is closer to my personality. Not that there is anything wrong with your list, I usually like your taste in music.

[Sean Daly]

Earlier in the week, I recommended Sam Cooke to a young man trying to soundtrack a sexy dinner date.

I love Sam, but alas, he placed #16 with "You Send Me."

[Ray]

No Sam Cooke?

[BOTB]

Although it would be difficult to produce a list more atrociously UNsexy than the 80's list, your list manages to leave one feeling...unfinished. May I suggest:

Cruisin' - Smokey Robinson
All Night Long - Mary Jane Girls
Love of My Life (An ode to hip hop)- Erykah Badu

I'd even accept:
High - The Cure
I Remember You - Skid Row

Otis Toole

[the Lady in Red]

Based on the extreme creepiness factor of the first four comments here, I'd say Spearsy has this one clinched.

[Marissa]

WAs your daddy a meat burglar? Can I offer you a fine glass of Courvoisier? Perhaps take a little trip to the Skanktuary?

[can I buy you a fish sandwich?]

Tell us Seany, just how hugeified is your wang?

I have two fine hams stuffed down the back of my dress for you sweet thang.

[Marissa]

Alrighty. Now that I've showered and err umm, taken care of things, I can tell you how much I giggled over the textual content of this post. "my foamy princess" -- "all my shirts come with seven buttons"

[Marissa]

Me-yowsa **purr**
d-d-d-d-dayummmm

I need a shower. and maybe a cigarette. and some other things I can't mention on this blog.
