To serenade someone was when a fellow would go stand under his favorite girl's window or balcony and sing lovely love songs to her. This was pre-CD, DVD, Ipods and such. Was very romantic and if the girl like him she might come out on the balcony and throw him a flower.

Yes, Lyn. And if she didn't like him, she'd empty her chamberpot on his head.
