    These would be great for a practical joke, I doubt I could keep a straight face though.

    I'm aware that this song is about The singers drug use AND the death of his father but I like it way better than Sonnet.

    Besides when English isn't your first language people don't always know exactly what the song is about. I'm mostly the only one of my friends who can sing along with any given song. You would be surprised what people here play as opening dance for their wedding (I want you from Elvis Costello isn't exactly perfect but quite popular here).

    Moros, are you the female Orgah people have been looking here in the frontroom? More than words? Even the rest of the band in that clip is laughing at the sexual tension between those two.

    But all in all there are some good suggestions in there.

    You asked easy listerning. Just a guitar and some vocals is the most typical set up for that. And we all know those are often melo-dramatic songs. What kind of songs are you looking for, if there are some songs you like from te list I could suggest others in the same style or something. I kinda posted an eclectic and varied list cause that's best in those cases. Also variety makes musci less boring, but you don't want to be associated with just one genre or something. You seemed to like non rap/dance 90's, rock so I tought I'd add some classics, with some good old nostalgia, some more commercial and some more recent or hip. Also I'd recommend to avoid only American or English music as well. Variety and some untypical (though not to underground, arty farty,...) songs seems best. You don't want to be seen as shallow, nor as too much a music freak.

    Right you are, though I tend to avoid 'Knuffelrock' music (a term I imagine you'll be familiar with).

    Oh and now for the report of the queue dramatic music date:

    The menu
    Mohito (home made with fresh mint and everything) as aperitif
    slice of goat cheese with honey and rhubarb mousse as a starter
    home made lassagna with salmon
    petit beurre taart as dessert

    The activity for the evening besides enjoying light conversation during our meal was the preparation of the petit beurre taart which is something I used to make as a child. It's pretty much boils down to dipping a certain brand of cookies in coffee and smear butter with brown sugar over it. It's easy, it's incredibly delicious and a fun way to get close and have a naughty food fight.

    Unfortunately, we didn't quite hit it off so there was no food fight.
    I did get a flattering comment on the music so this is also a flattering comment to the taste of the Org.

    It just wasn't clicking. No music in the world would've saved that date.

    I also went 'hunting' at a local music festival this weekend. A hint for the young ones: quit drinking before you lose control over your legs.
    That is all.

    Well, actually it was more a date to have something to do that evening.
    I've set up my scouting network by now. Only I can screw it up now.

    I'm planning a romantic date at my house. You know, some some food and afterwards a boardgame or a movie some sweet sweet love, ...


    If you dont get some after that then she is a lesbian...
