Who were the key bands that defined "bow bow, chika chaka, chika chaka" with adult films? Id love to know more about these musicians. ill leave it at that one question, but an article on the subject would be nice guys... —Preceding
- If you are interested in the music, you may be interested in Inside Deep Note - a collection of popular porn movie music from the seventies. You'll notice that the music doesn't really have any band information. My understanding is that a sound person would take a bunch of sound loops and string them together to make a porno-sounding song. Change a couple loops, you have a new song. Very low cost (as the movies had almost no budget) for a high return on investment. -- kainaw™ 18:37, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
- I can recommend Mondi Caldi di Notte and Erotica Italia. This is fun to listen to too Take It Off! Strip Tease Classics. I have all three in my collection. Don't forget Marilyn Chambers released a single "Benihana", and she sings the opening song to Insatiable, although I don't think the soundtrack was ever released on vinyl or CD; shame the songs actually aren't too bad. Andrea True with More, More, More is probably the best known song associated with porn.--TrogWoolley (talk) 11:07, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
Can you help me find this spanish band I used to listen to?
editI unfortunately have very little information to go on but assure that I have already spent several hours googling for variations of it. I've been finding Spanish lyrics sites woefully inadequate. I hazily recall one line from the beginning of one song: "me dijo que su boca era de miel / y su cuerpo tambien" and also that there is one song where, as part of the chorus, the band shouts in unison "LAGARTA." I had hoped this was the title of a song but nothing has turned up. A few of their videos feature the band on beaches or boats in spring-break or vacationing style. They are all fairly young (late teens? early 20s?) and similar in tone to bands such as Blink 182, Green Day, Weezer, Sublime, etc. I appreciate and thank you for your attention in this matter.
In addition, other popular bands that I already know are not the one I am looking for include:
Amaral
Attaque 77
El Cuarteto De Nos
Fiel a la Vega
Johnie All Stars
La Barranca
La Ley
La Lupita
La Oreja de Van Gogh

What is this melody from?
editWhat is the above melody from? I have a feeling it's from some 1960s movie that takes place in Greece, but I don't think it's either Zorba the Greek or Never on Sunday, and I can't think of any others. —Angr 17:27, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
- My guess is that you're thinking of Lara's Theme from Doctor Zhivago. Check this link. — Kieff | Talk 17:58, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
- You're right! It was those mandolins sounding more Greek than Russian that threw me off. Thanks for your help! —Angr 18:07, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
- No problem! :D
- Also, I just found out we actually have an article on that tune at Lara's Theme. — Kieff | Talk 18:09, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, I just found that too! There it is revealed that those "mandolins" are actually balalaikas, and therefore thoroughly Russian after all. —Angr 18:11, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
- I've just asked a question at Talk:Lara's Theme about the possible origin of the theme (Alexander Glazunov?). -- JackofOz (talk) 23:21, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
