Yeah, if you could figure out what that tune was and convince men if they only had such and such for a stereo system and played that song for a woman they were trying to get romantic with that they would be successful, you could make a zillion dollars.
 
At least we know for sure we can scratch The Macarena off the list of candidates! One down..........
 
Along with Ice, Ice Baby....Two down :)

I usually listen alone unless someone expresses interest in hearing something of their choice. It isn't often that they will say anything until the selection is over. I just so happen to like it that way, so I can enjoy it too.

Don't know anybody who played "Can't Touch This" that was ever allowed to touch hers......Three down :D
 
Yeah, but then you will want to talk about the first thing that pops up.

I doubt that "talking" will be on my mind though.....perhaps a few utterances......LOL!

Back in the early 1970's when I was in college, that would have been The Moody Blues, "Knights in White Satin" from Days of Future Past.

The statistics on that were VERY good. . . .
 
You already have a pair of speakers with a sweet spot large enough for three. Ménage_à_trois?

Let me ask my girlfriend! but....yeah!
 
So is Mep a guy with a solitary arm in a solitary hobby?
 
My 2 cents.

The world is obsessed with multi tasking.

I think having a one on one with music is a very healthy activity.

And when a friend or friends come over and do partake in a serious, one on one session, everyone always says "I need to do this more often".

Guys-When I had my first surgery on my right arm last September, I heard so many masturbation wisecracks I can't even remember them all. Now that I have had the second surgery, I'm hearing round two of them. My favorite from last year was when one guy looked at my arm and said "Freak masturbation accident?"
 
Jumping in late here. Music is a solitary hobby for me BY DESIGN. My late night listening sessions are like meditation sessions . I will enjoy watching a concerts DVD with friends occasionally, but listening for me is a 90% solitary hobby, and I like it that way.
