Helloooo R&P! ~~;-)

This was influenced by a question from C.F. about, why does music make us feel so good? So thank you for that excellent question.

Well it got me thinking, can music be sexy? Well it can be for me, a huge part of me feels that way. I'll hear a song and think...damn thats a sexy song. :p But I have talked to people that just dont get that and think I am nuts. I think that is unfortunate and I cant understand why they wouldn't respond to certain music that way. So I want to know your thoughts on this...

BQ: What are some songs you think are sexy:

BQ2: What are some great songs to have sex to:

BQ3: The best songs to slow dance to:

Just a few of what I think are sexy songs, but I could name 100's more:

Hellooo R&P! ;-)

Say someone you know with a very young impressionable mind came to you not knowing much about music other than what is played on the hip hop/rap internet radio station or even country or classical, anything but rock. They want to get into rock music, but dont know where to start. Here is your chance to open up their world to rock music and leave them wanting to know more. In other words the ultimate rock/metal playlist for someone new.

MQ: List some albums and/or songs that would introduce someone into rock/metal music:

BQ: Do you have any bad habits you'd like to get rid of?

BQ2: What are some things that you do well?

G'day ~~;-)

This question was inspired by Birdy's question, "What is your favorite Steve Winwood Song" ;-) Thank you Birdy!

There were so many great blues rock musicians popping up back in the 60's & 70's. I have been listening to a lot of blues rock lately, and I keep finding groups that intertwine with each and break up to form other groups, etc, etc. Eric Clapton is one of those musicians that seems to have had is hand in a lot of the groups, not to mention his solo career...

Just for fun see what comes up. :-) Put you player on shuffle and name the songs that come up and put them with each of these different situations....

What you would say if you just woke up and realized the last 5 years was just a dream, and you now have to do it again...

What you would do if you were standing on a street corner waiting for a bus, and someone drives by and throws a spit bomb in your face...

What you would say when your dog has pooped on the floor and you manage to step in it with your bare feet...

How you would feel right before that first date with your secret crush...

What you will say during that date that is sure to to win his/her heart...

That thing you think about every night just before you go to bed...

What you would do if you found $1000 in a envelope in the parking lot at the bank...

This is the one thing that you are afraid of but no one knows, until now...

What you would do if you landed your dream job with a huge salary to go with...

Its my birthday, what would you say to me?

Thanks everybody, have a great night/day! ♥

Helloooo R&P ~~;-)

I am taking a little trip to the ocean soon. Going this time of the year, it will probably be stormy, maybe rainy and windy. But I kind of like it that way sometimes because I really enjoy watching the waves crash up against the rocks and the power of the ocean. So I was thinking about how many songs are based on the ocean, the sea, or rivers or just bodies of water in general.

MQ: So what are some of your favorite songs that are about the "Ocean" or any other body of water?

Some of mine:

River Of Deceit ~ Mad Season

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fm72DPJCX58

Down By The Seaside ~ Led Zeppelin

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atuU12Ye9F8

Crossing The Ocean ~ Scale The Summit

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqK0-8iyfNg

Strange Seas Of Thought ~ Amplifier

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rabb51EbKno

Six Days At The Bottom Of The Ocean ~ Explosions In The Sky

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wLXJASUOmI

Sea Of Sorrow ~ Alice In Chains

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbrANo-1QMQ

BQ: Have you ever seen a sunset or sunrise on the ocean?

BQ2: Favorite thing to do in and/or around water?

BQ3: Do you ever go fishing?

BQ4: Tell me a fish story...

L'Oceano è un posto così bello...Grazie!

Hellooo R&P ;-)

Are there any bands that you can think of that have continuously stayed together for over 20 years and haven't added any other members and are still active?

There has to be, can you name some for me?

Thanks R&P, and have a great week! ♥

Hola R&P ~~ ;-)

Make a short playlist of a few of your most favorite songs, any genre will do but it should say what it is that you love about music. Kind of like a insight to you musicial tastes.....I will listen to all of them!

BQ: So tell me anything random about yourself...

BQ2: Anything else you want to share?

Thank you and have a great weekend! ♥

Hello R&P ~~:-)

I think a lot of what makes a pop group successful is based on their appearance and image to the public for them to sell records. Which, personally I could care less about, it should be about the music.

On the flip side, I dont think it is at all important for metal bands to have a certain look to achieve success as a musician, its all about the music.

MQ: Your thoughts on this?

In referring to "your style" what do you like?

BQ: Do you have a certain image/style you like to portray?

If so.....

BQ2: Describe your hairstyle?

BQ3: Do you have piercings?

BQ4: Any Tattoos?

BQ5: Do you have a certain style in the clothes you wear?

BQ6: Anything else you want to say about the way you dress/look?

Hey thanks for sharing, you all have a great weekend! ♥
