German.
If you'd ever heard a male voice recite Poetry in German you'd know why.
Sadly, that's an art mostly performed by foreigners nowadays.
British English is a pretty seductive language, too. :adore:

If you can contend yourself with a female voice, here's an example for a (rather ecstatic) German love poem: http://sdg3.com/z/audio/poem.wma

It is called "Ich liebe" (I love) by Rainer Maria Rilke and translates as:

Now the world may tremble in its foundations,
the element may rage unleashed;
for a new era is born,
which knows no hatred nor disagreement!
Through my soul whispers a breeze of magic
oh! how it ignites my heart, predicting happiness!
My pulses race, my lips tremble,
I feel this is what calls iteslf "love"!
And if everything around me should founder in nothingness,
I live and love's stars are beckoning!

That all depends on which British accent you're hearing. There are dozens of them, you know.

Most Brits would say a scouse accent is anything but sexy. To them, it sounds like the proverbial fingernails on a chalkboard.
 
I'm not the right person to answer this question, but French was scientifically designed to be sexy, so I think that's probably the right answer. I love Italian, but it can certainly be all over the map depending on the region.

True. I was primarily thinking of Queen's English or a moderate Midlands accent. But a slight tinge of Welsh can be pretty cute, too, as Peter Wingfield proves :adore:
Cockney is perhaps not exactly a sexy accent (no offense meant to the Londoners)
 
Scottish isn't a romance language - meaning a language descended from Latin.
 
...we need a thread dedicated to which dialect sounds least sexy:

Some nominees

1. Newfoundlander hey 'der buy
2. Bostonian vowel abuse
3. Texan drawl
4. the Fargoian bleat 'ohhh'
5. the valley girl likening
 
French was scientifically designed?!

Yes, by a heavily drunk scientist. I could tell when I learnt the grammatical rules.

The gender labels, for one. Also, "du" can go fuck itself.

It deserves it : no one ever bothered to set rules for gender labels and "du" or other funny things like that. It just sounds better like that. French isn't sexy, it's frivolous ;)
 
I think i should have used the term Latin Language instead of Romance Language. Romance refering to the group of languages being descended from Latin.
