This is not a trick or rude thread!(I do not want to know the colour of your smalls...honestly! )

When I'm on the org I usually listen to music...Very loudly (through headphones of course!);)

Right now I'm listening to a mixture by Andrea Bocelli....Very beautiful...haven't a clue what he's singing about but it is lovely none the less!

So what are you listening to?

Im listening to a chorus of muuuum coming from the bedroom.The little ones want their night night kissy apart from that all I am hearing is the tumble drier getting my next lot of ironing ready for me:lol: I have nothing normally in the background so that I can listen out for the kids.

I have to admit that I haven't really listened to much of Andrea Bocelli before,but this is giving me goosebumps!:eek:
It sounds so lovely and yet so sad........I'm such a big softie at heart!:lol:

I usually prefer things like Thin Lizzy which is what I have playing in my car.
I'm thinking my age is catching up on me ( and if any of you youngsters ask who Thin lizzy is.........well!)

I feel jealous...my cd's are in the car and I'm too lazy to go get them...but they make the journey into work more pleasant....except for my singing!
So if you see a madwoman who looks like she's talking to herself....or shouting obscenities at you....please remember it could be me singing!!

"...dancing in the moonlight,it's caught me"....oops sorry!;)

You know how it is ..it makes great 'air guitar' music......now that would worry me a bit!...both hands off the wheel!....
But tell me what is it you do to get this response from women? Being a bit older perhaps I can give you some pointers as to 'what women want'!;) and that will stop the unfortunate signals you've been getting! lol:lol:

Meatloaf....good choice!
I actually love music....all kinds!....well I'm not at all sure about jazz.(Some is ok )
If ever there was anything which can change your mood it has to be music!
and with such a large amount to choose from why is it most shops get it wrong?
I have caught myself singing in the Co-op though...only once or twice...just before they've asked me to leave!:lol:

Indeed Sapphire, you're very correct, however I don't like to linger over it too long, as it invariably ends up with Wee'estBurd springing awake with the biggest smile ever - and me thinking "Don't give me that beautiful, cute smile, when I'm just going to bed! Now you'll want to be up, and babbling, and wanting cooches!!"[lol]
