What is the ultimate hook up song?

Do you remember that night when you meet that special someone? Your eyes met, you danced, you talked, and that outfit you wore really made the difference. Then it happened. You made out or spent seven minutes in heaven. What song was playing at that moment? For me it was at Spizes, that dark club with the black walls and the one black couch in the back. The girl was Karen, the song was
“Forever Young” –Alphaville

What song was it for you?[;)]

Blondie - AutoAmerican

The entire album. I had a girlfriend (at the time) that would go into a frenzy when that album was played.
It has GREAT memories for me.[^]

Ministry's entire "Twitch" album. New Year's Eve with Christine who was wearing skintight cycling pants for some reason. We were liplocked from midnight to 1:30. After Twitch ended I faintly recall someone playing Q-Feel "Dancing In Heaven."

THE ONE I LOVE R.E.M. GREAT SONG I REMEMBER SITTING IN MY OLD 68 DODGE
LISENING TO TAPES WITH MY HIGH SCHOOL SWEETHEART. Every time I hear that song I think of her, the moonlight, and Stuarts lake public access. Those were great times.
