Surely one of the greatest love songs is “All I want for Christmas is you” . A real heart warmer delivered at pace and striking a natural cord with any singleton with a dream love in mind.
This 2004 Maria Carey musical style rendering in the open air takes some beating.
The meeting up of sleep and great love songs in pursuit of a great night out.
Sometimes the most important element in great night out is making sure you are in the right mood! You need to sort your head out before you meet up, and make sure you are alert and eager.
Enter the Disco Nap. Here’s how it works: Book yourself an hour at home before you’re due to meet up with your friends, turn off the lights, turn on your stereo and drift into a gentle slumber, with a great love song to lull you into a happy rest. Make sure you turn the alarm on first!
Result: Wake up, rested with the greatest love song in your head and in the right mood for meeting your friends or date.
Key skill: Choose the right tune. It depends who you’re meeting up with and what you’re going to do. For a date, you need a great love song to make you feel happy and sentimental before you meet up. Beware: songs of an overly sexual nature are not appropriate for a pre date disco nap. The greatest love songs should make you relaxed and optimistec before a date, not over excited and tense.
Keep you greatest love songs clean, relaxed and sentimental and you’ll be in exactly the right zone.
