"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

How many of you actually play out and practice a lot?
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

I play the guitar for like one hour a day... I love playing Coldplay songs, and now, I know all the Coldplay songs' guitar solos. They're not so hard, though, but as I love Coldplay's music, i like playing their songs. The solos in Shiver, Moses, Talk and Got Put A Smile Upon Your Face are maybe the hardest ones to play, but I play them all, without any problems.
I also know a couple of Guns'n Roses solos, like the solos in Estranged and of course Sweet Child Of Mine. And there's a lot of Queen songs in which there are cool solos to play. The solo in Let Me Live (from the Made In Heaven album) for example, is a really nice one to play.

Like half the people I know can play Time Of Your Life. So, at least here, it's nothing special. I don't see any of them with any chicks around them.

Songs that sound good and look hard to play are the way to go ;)

Master freestyle's and you're in.

I write a lot of my own music, and i've come across a lot of really basic chord progressions (C Am F G for example) that are really easy to just throw words into. I'll start off with some little intro i've written then go into simple stuff like that but sing about the girl who's right in front of me...it takes some wit and quick thinking, but if you can recall some facts about her and throw them in the song, even if it's a little off, just make it rhyme and she'll love it.

I'd say at least original tunes is the best....everyone plays other people's music and at least around here, everyone knows the crappy songs that everyone always plays....so the only way to get anywhere is to be original.

I'm just picking up guitar, a couple of my friends can totally rock out and inspired me to finnally pick it up. I can play a lot of Nirvana stuff and am trying to learn a few kick ass solos. Learn guitar because you want to, else finding the motivation is going to be hard.

Edit: I can play the theme to Super Mario, while its not quite sexy it is pretty cool.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

come on guys, how many girls appreciate that kind of music? not many. Its good music...but chicks don't see that.
now pop-punk like Greenday, chicks appreciate. They eat that sh!t up. If your playing a song specifically to a girl, I'm gonna say that accoustic is the way to go as well[unless she -likes- electric].
just my opinions.

Exactly. There have been way too many suggestions that have been metal and hard rock songs, and while girls will definitely see you as talented if you play those songs for them, they won't adore you like they will if you play a softer, more romantic song. Go with acoustic.

Void and Dimebag had the best suggestions so far.

Here's the best IMO (a few have already been mentioned):

Wonderwall- Oasis
Taylor- Jack Johnson
Bubbletoes- Jack Johnson (pretty much any Jack is good)
Wonderful Tonight- Eric Clapton
Blackbird- The Beatles
Wish You Were Here- Pink Floyd
pretty much any John Mayer

and the best one: Crash- Dave Matthews Band. Girls will melt when they here you play that song, and it's not that difficult.

I play an Agile AL-2800 Les Paul through a Peavey XXX head and cab or a Roland Cube.
The bands you mention use humbucker pickups, they do make humbuckers that fit into a single coil slot though, not sure the exact make but Seymour Duncan makes them.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
