Love to Love you Baby / Donna Summer
Ms Summer had to run up ten flights of stairs to the recording studio and despite obviously being out of breath the pleasure she got from her new fitness regime is clear for all to hear!

Crowded House Private Universe
Make of the lyrics what you will. It's a gorgeous wee song.
no time no place to talk about the weather
the promise of love is hard to ignore
who said the chance wasn't getting any better
the labour of love is ours to endure
the highest branch on the apple tree
it was my favourite place to be
I could hear them breaking free
but they could not see me
I will run for shelter
endless summer lift the curse
it feels like nothing matters
in our private universe
I have all I want is that simple enough
there's a whole lot more I'm thinking of
every night about six o'clock
birds come back to the palm to talk
they talk to me, birds to talk to me
if I go down on my knees
I will run for shelter
endless summer lift the curse
it feels like nothing matters
in our private universe
it feels like nothing matters
in our private universe
and it's a pleasure that I have known
and it's a treasure that I have gained
and it's a pleasure that I have known
it's a tight squeeze but I won't let go
love is on the table and the dinner's cold
I will run for shelter
endless summer lift the curse
it feels like nothing matters
in our private universe

Well I've got to get out of the rat-race now
I'm tired of the ways of mice and men
And the empires all turning into rust again.
Out of everything nothing remains the same
That's why I'm cloud hidden
Cloud hidden

well, it's bang on theme, very beautiful, Michael kamen's orchestration is stunning - a pleasure to listen to and I'd love to hear it played on GIO...but..it's about Kate's moments of pleasure rather than Henri's so I'm slightly unsure.... more thinking needed... it would definitely work in the montage though...
It's a strange theme, since quite a lot of what constitutes 'pleasure' will be struck off by GIO as 'indescribably filthy' - so we must think of higher things.
So I will think of higher things....
