Some suggestions : 1 : Be sure the woman like music 2 : Be sure she desires listening music 3 : Be sure she likes prog 4 : Check you have not a bad breath 5 : Don't forget to offer her one's congratulation on her hair-dress It was my free consultation

Hehe, what a surprise!! When talking about Yes, their self-titled album from 1969 have a few "sweet" tracks, such as "I see you", "Every Little Thing" and "Sweetness". Lovely!! |

For me this a hypothetical questionbut if I ever had a woman alone in my house then I would try Yes 'And You And I' or Greg Lake's entire side on ELP's 'Works Vol One'. It's probably sensible though to have a Carpenter's record in reserve just in case she's not impressed by Rick Wakeman's mellotron playing!

| Don“t waste your time, sometimes the lady doesn't like music, nor prog... but i have to say that i conquered my lady playing some MARILLION, and some Dream Theater tunes, like Beautiful, Kayleigh, Another day, Surrounded and wait for sleep, is a matter of trying some different records to find the right song, and then, put them in one great record for her!!!! |

This is a hard question, but I have some experience with it, since my gf likes prog. Piper at the Gates of Dawn. Scarecrows and Gnomes can be fun, at a certain time and Sid's pretty tame compared to the crackheads in the music world nowadays. She'll think you're cute. Moonchild. I think you know what I'm talking about. There's even a tranquil makeout section. Ladies of the Road's a little tough, you're not really a rockstar Dark Side of the Moon, followed by The Division Bell. And you and I is awesome. Also good is To be over, Wondrous Stories, and numerous Howe goings on. Guitar skills are sexy (so says she) I actually listened to Eloy once (Mysterious Monolith) while making out but it was too much like some 80s trip out artsy thing and we had to shut them off. Three Colours by Galleon is pretty awesome, that's a new one I just got. Best prog pickup band overall? I would have to say: ELP. Still you turn me on, C'est la vie, Lucky Man, From the Beginning. They're all pretty chivalrous. Gaston -------------   It's the same guy. Great minds think alike. |

Iwould like to spend a dreamy and long night with a  & delicate girl, contempling the sky...with 'On land' (by Eno) or 'Evening star' (by Eno & Fripp) in the background. I'm sure it would be a fairy-like night. -------------

| A Change of Seasons has always seemed like a good doin-it song, and even better, some women love it! the only problem is, the song doesn't last as long as I do... |

Date Posted: March 31 2004 at 21:07

SO the song needs an extra 8 seconds then!!(just kidding!)

| I'm surprised, I actually met a girl who loved rush! We fell in love, but it didn't last that long, partly on account of her density. |

My cousin loves Rush but i dont think i would take that any further with her(shes 32 years old and single and a bit of a babe if anyones interested!!!)
