They both worked wonders and I associate them with some of the best memories of my life. I'm sticking to the same strategy next season.  |

Occasionally I have music listening nights at my house where each of my friends brings over a CD of their choice. We listen to each one without talking or any other interruptions. We take a brief intermission between each CD. Each of us tries to come up with something really interesting that the others haven't heard. Of course I've used these opportunities to play Alizée, as well as other music. It's a great way to listen to concept albums in particular. I know it probably sounds weird, but we are all musicians and we take our listening very seriously.

Two wonderful positive posts by a couple of the most musically talented people we have here. Thanks so much, both of you.
I hope I get to hear some of the wonderful music you make in the future... that has been inspired by your listening experiences.
