What is the song played in the movie? If I remember well the song is heard twice, once played on the organ in the house when they are in the swimming pool, once from a gramophone (The record is seen turning). Thank you!

It's "Shanghai Lil" from Footlight Parade (which if you haven't seen, you need to immediately.) When I recognized it I had a little giggle about it being used as her "seduction" leitmotif!

Ohcinema is right it's Shanghai Lil, and it sounds very strange on an organ!
Here it is (not from this film or Footlight Parade, as it happens):

It sounded like HOW DEEP IS THE OCEAN to me but I am not that sure.

This is definitely Shanghai Lil, but the melody IS similar. That whole scene cracked me up, with the organist up on the wall. A scene I could imagine in Dracula, perhaps to emphasize how she sucks the life out of everyone she meets.

Every time she'd toss a pillow on the floor I'd say to myself "I have got to get a record of "Shanghai Lil".
"What else can you fellas play outside of "Tiger Rag" and pinochle?"
