AnonyMouse_19762 Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Hi all Just a bit of fun! I have a terrible confession to make :wacko: I have been busy cleaning I know shocking behaviour! So, anyway, my favourite music to 'clean to' is either The Stones or Queen......... honestly - try window cleaning to 'Paint it Black' - brilliant! Or washing your kitchen floor to 'Don't Stop me Now'!!!........... Later I will be ironing to Cyndi Lauper!!! Methinks it maybe a Pavlov dogs thingy......... So what is your best music to clean to, iron to, drive to...........or is it just me Sunnyday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_19782 Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Not just you Sunny, I like driving to .......Dire Straits, obviously Queen, Scouting for Girls, Kaiser Chiefs, when it comes to ironing I need more distraction I'm afraid so I watch t.v. or a dvd. If I'm painting and decorating I like to listen to radio 4 or call in programmes rather than music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_19762 Posted October 18, 2009 Author Share Posted October 18, 2009 (edited) So glad you decided to play Panders!!! Dire Straits - driving - yes I'm with you there! Scouting for Girls........hmm........you've got me there........WHO??? Just popped back to say.......I saw Dire Straits live at Earls Court many moons ago.......brilliant!!!

Guest Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 I'm the same as Mundia, don't do cleaning, I don't do air guitar either. When I do rarely do the cleaning ( often as an avoidance strategy for something else I should be doing, such as report writing) I like to listen to anything 70's disco , James Brown, Commodores, Wild Cherry, Travares, Real Thing (who we recently saw in London ), Earth Wind and Fire, The Emotions etc etc. ooh, do I now write my complaint to SS, (don't ask, long story Ive been avoiding this by being on here ) or do some housework?

AnonyMouse_13453 Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Would do when you've got your pinny on and your rollers and headscarf (aka Hilda Ogden) arms up to elbows in suds washing the windows or scrubbing the floor! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Has to be Heart radio - I can't wash up without it on! My Mum used to iron to Enya and ELO, I just iron with the tv on. Music does make housework go a little easier... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_10355 Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 (edited) I'm with Peggy on this one ! I normally do my ironing to 70's disco music,(music supplied by my music teacher daughter)but it does depend on what mood I'm in. Sometimes it can be rock Deep Purple,Guns and Roses, Aerosmith that genre of music, but I'm a Fleetwood mac kind of person. Now I'm really showing my age ! I don't put the music on when I'm cleaning though, as I can't hear it over the noise of the hoover ! My daughter (youngest) is normally playing her music so loud that I'm enforced to listen to that mainly - R&b stuff.

AnonyMouse_15046 Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Sunnyday I feel very let down that you are now admitting to doing cleaning but seeing as you are 'coming clean' (!) I will plead guilty to the following charges; Ironing - Mamma Mia or Yes Minister Driving - Ella Fitzgerald Cleaning - Meatloaf Writing assignments - Enya Cooking - The Corrs, Dido, Fleetwood Mac, Fairground Attraction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_3735 Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 I'm another 70s disco diva..... or some cheesy music from late 60s early 70s which keeps coming back again... no particular artist more a genre.... I don't iron ..my husband watches dvds while he does it! Inge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_19762 Posted October 18, 2009 Author Share Posted October 18, 2009 (edited) Sorry Upsy Alison Daisy - had to do some cleaning - I was having to ask visitors which innoculations they had had before letting them in! Fairground Attraction - I had forgotten all about them - have them on vinyl - not CD...... It's got to beeeeeee Perrrrrrfect!!! Crikey Inge - where did you find him!!! Mr Sunnyday wouldn't even know how to put the ironing board up! Edited October 18, 2009 by sunnyday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonyMouse_21228 Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 cleaning??? window washing??? Def got out of practice with those activities during the dreaded study! However, as Upsy Daisy pointed out writing assignments is much better to music. I used to have Eva Cassidy, James Blunt, and David Gray on and off I'd go. Panders and Sunny Day, you both have joining FSF birthdays?! ahhh sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am trying to engage with this thread, honestly I am. But I just don't understand this group's terms of reference. Cleaning? Ironing? Can someone explain?

Guest Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 (edited) evening all! I prefer to iron whilst watching TV, although usually there is someone else watching their own programmes and I have to put up, but on Saturday I ironed and watched "Come dine with me"! I was alone in the house and could watch what I wanted!! It was done in no time!! Driving is just whatever is on the radio as my cd player is broken!! When is was working I had in Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Madonna, Queen, Coldplay and some that I had burnt myself on the laptop (these being ones that were on the laptop that James liked) although I found there were some tracks I had to skip as they made my foot heavy!! Now I tend to switch between Radio 1, Cool FM, citybeat and 2FM to find songs that I like!! As for studying, I prefered complete silence, but when typing it all out I listened to my 'studying' playlist on the laptop. Just had a quick look at it and there is Coldplay, Nickleback, Paul Weller, Corrs, U2, Snow Patrol, Eagles, David Gray, Bruce Springsteen, Annie Lennox and Whitesnake to name but a few! Kinda easy listening so I didn't get too distracted!! Edited October 18, 2009 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
