My brothers and I wrote a song for my mum once, it was called "my mother the whore" very Nick Cave it was too

we think she saw the funny side


I look like the kind of guy who pimps his sister not just for the money, but because he hates her

I guess I am too late to make a suggestion now, but how did it go Simon? What did you sing? Did she fall for you on the spot? Did she laugh her ass off?

Help me! He keeps making me post!

Of course she fell swooning at my feet, pledging her undying love to me on the basis of 'The First Time That Ever I Saw Your Face'.

Ha. Not in my wildest dreams.

Oh well, never mind Simon. You tried at least, and God loves a tryer. I know he wasn't exactly who you had in mind though.

I do Lover You Should´ve Come Over in the street. Jeff Buckley is far easier to sing than you´d think, you just gotta wear it in like a new pair of shoes.
As far as serenading goes, it´d have to be something original (or a flamenco version of Do Ya Think I´m Sexy?)

Si piensaaaaaaaaaaas que soy sexy
Y deseas mi cuerpo (cue lots of handclaps, adlib moribund yowling)

Hehe, you got to reviving it first, I was still reading through.

Suffice to say, our hypothetical friend never tried it, or was likely to. Still, he can dream.
Any new suggestions?

Haha, thanks, I think. I'll pass the message on.

Just flicking through this thread, I definitely have looked up more Kristin Hersh now, and it's just great. I saw her with 50 Foot Wave last year and solo this year, and she's brilliant.

Once my girlfriend wrote me a poem about herself, in portuguese, and as i went home I sang it back to her on the telephone..it was.. almost 20 years ago, when i barely played guitar..
The other day i was back in Vigo and walked past her door, the same way we walked back from college, i had walked it for almost 18 years..
unfortunately, i lost that poem along with her letters, i had lost her long ago.
I agree, True Blue is a great song for serenading
In my life many things have disappeared, but is clear what endures
BTW hte othre day met a nice girl in a boat on my way to cacilhas.. we had to go our own way when the trip ended
a pitty, because with a sunset as that there is no need of serenading

I miss this thread.
The other evening I ended up in a girl's flat, after she'd invited me in for some coffee, playing her flatmate's guitar and singing 'Been Thinking About You' at her. All entirely innocent, no attempted seduction I assure you, but it reminded me of here.
That's a pretty good serenading song, maybe? The main sentiment, at least.
Been thinkin 'bout you, and there's no rest,
Should I still love you, still see you in bed?
But I'm playin' with myself, what do you care,
When the other men are far far better.

Fits for me at least. Um, to some extent, maybe the 'been thinking about you' bit.

Yeah perhaps it's a bit too creepy for some girls though. The lyrics border on the stalker-ish or at least obsessed, as beautiful as they are. Not too many girls like stalkers.

Try Every Breath You.........actually forget that.

You had balls to play that to her though. I admire that. Wish I had some.

Glad this one's back!

Serenading is sweetly romantic, Simon. Do it as often as you can!

It wasn't THE girl, I should probably stress that. And it was just a random situation rather than a specific serenading. 'There Is A Light That Never Goes Out' goes down well, I find.

That's still sweet. Impromptuness has its own special softspot in girls' hearts.

I think it's impromptuosity.

Does anyone want to give me piano lessons, by the way?
