Not only have I heard it, but I've played it before (trombone, but still). It's not full enough.
Listen to the Mozart piece I posted. It's full, encircling the listener like a violent storm. Bolero is a masterful piece, but it's never had the depth necessary to represent the complexity of love, imho. And while for the sake of this thread it's probably accompanying thrusting and grinding, it's still a bit too redundant. It's not as bad as Cannon in C (*shudders*), but it needs to move through different emotions and themes in order to really represent a proper session. Unless it's a quicky, in which case the Minute Waltz will do just fine.
But who wants to put on music for a quicky?
