Hehehe, yes how could one forget - it was an aphrodisiac for many couples who attened the initial performances back in the days.
After hearing the piece, audiences would go home and shag like there was no tomorrow and some were so arroused that they left half-way through the concert.

I LOVE the Godfather theme!
I think its from some hungarian dances, I have to ask my director.
THere's also a jazz song that uses the theme, one of my favorites
It's called 'Come Live Your Life With Me', I like Peter Cincotti's version of it.
