toine 30556 Report post Posted April 17, 2011 Well, there ain't no Candy Shop a la 50cents in there, but, in French, here is a classic from Georges Brassens, Le mauvais sujet repenti (from 1964), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mVqzZxKZmI; as well, his La complainte des filles de joie (1961) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9dWmijny2U and a lesser known one La fille à cent sous (1961)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8z6Kb3GPyM). Moving forward in time, Thomas Fersen has something for the ladies of the night, as I know of three songs all about Ladies of the night, or with clear allusion: Louise (1995) ; Ou trouver des fleurs le lundi soir après minuit (1997); and Les papillons (1997)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AcbOkZd6SVw. While Brassens's songs are coloured by the grinding poverty of the post-war 40s and 50s, Fersen's tend to be recollections from his years of (compulsory) military service. Both have a thing for SW and umbrellas. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nntsci 11076 Report post Posted July 17, 2012 (edited) In this scene from act 2 (act 3 when they did it in Toronto) of The Tales of Hoffman by Jacque Offenbach, set in a brothel in Venice, Hoffman played by Placido Domingo realizes that a courtesan, Guilletta, has not only captured his heart, but has stolen his reflection. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoB42XMZ2HY The music is in part a reprise of the Bacarelle, one of the biggest hits of the entire opera. The reflection is apparently the more serious loss probably cause he loses his heart to pretty much every skirt in the opera, including a mechanical doll. I love this opera. It so romantic, but mocks the ideals of romance throughout. In an earlier scene Hoffman boldly claimed that one does not fall in love in a brothel... and sure enough he does in the very next scene even though the girl was trying to warn him away because he would lose his reflection if he loves her.

Reuben Sandwich 13841 Report post Posted July 18, 2012 I have always liked this song but with the choreography by Bob Fosse, this is one of my faves from the film version of Sweet Charity. Big Spender http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iG3VfKlfDEkh In Sweet Charity the girls are working as dance hall hostesses rather then prostitutes from the original inspiration, Fellini's Nights of Calabria. We can't leave without seeing Shirley Maclaine as Charity singing If My Friends Could See Me Now http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3JpLvS0ook Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nntsci 11076 Report post Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) Ok, this must be the most famous song about a Lady engaged in the provision of "services" to men. From the Opera Carmen. Its never actually clear in the opera if she is a prostitute. In fact she offers herself for free apparently. She appears to take on the role more of as a mistress than a prostitute and relationships last up, but no more, then 6 months according to Escamillo. But I did find this analysis of the story. "Carmen makes connotations throughout the opera stating that she's not really interested in getting paid for sex; although Carmen is a prostitute, this is her ongoing theme throughout the opera. She's interested in making love, only for its sexual sake, and not for the sake of getting paid." From http://voices.yahoo.com/the-opera-carmen-womens-rights-2487398.html But you can never trust anything you read on the internet. Anyway, she is very choosy about who her next lover will be... She only takes on clients she likes. But makes a bad choice with Don Jose, a french soldier, because the silly man screws up his profession by letting her escape from jail and falls in love with her. Worse still, he doesn't want to share her with the other men that admire her like the Toreador Escamilio. In this scene Escamilo offers to pay for her, but Don Jose says the price is a dagger so they fight for her. Edited July 21, 2012 by nntsci 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
