Songs that you love that your girlfriend reached over and switched off

[oman]

A mouthful of a title, I know. Here's the deal though: Is there any song that you liked that when you got into your car after having a beer or two at the Posse East you turned on the radio just randomly and it was playing a song that you liked and your girlfriend, not really thinking, switched the station to something else? And that you knew than and there that your best instinct would have been to just tell her to get the ******** out but then you thought that sometimes things weren't what they seemed and their might be hope for you two after all?

You can use books or movies or songs, I don't care.

For me, the song was The Love You Save by the Jackson Five. And I think it was because it was on her station to begin with. And it's not that I especially like the song but it's the Jackson Five for chrissakes, Who intentionally turns off vintage Jackson Five?

I Got Big Balls, by AC/DC.

(No, I'm joking)

[harperpb]

George Thorogood and the Delaware Destroyers: Who Do You Love.

It's not a great song, and perhaps GT and the DD are not a great band, but that song has something. Sadly, it was her car.

be sweet by afghan whigs.

i got a dick for a brain, and my brain is gonna sell my ass to you....

actually pretty much any afghan whigs.

what girl doesn't love the fat sweaty sexiness of greg dulli!???

[CHICO13]

Eat The Rich by Aerosmith. Maybe it was the fact that I cranked it up to 11 that freaked her out.

Square Dance Rap by Sir Mix-a-Lot

OFF!

I don't get why. :confused:

[yossarian]

Any Sonic Youth song.

Her: "That's just noise."

Me: "Yeah, but it's awesome noise."

Her: [turns the dial]

[Cascarino's Pizzeria]

My g/f back in H.S. took my "Give Me Convenience or Give Me Death" cassette and probably smashed it to bits with a hammer. So I won another one on the Seaside boardwalk.

You mofos ********ing rock!

Do ex-girlfriends count?

If so . . .

Jay-Z's "99 Problems"


Pretty self explanatory.

[SirManchester]

If I heard the Jackson Five I'd pretty much turn that off.

In my case, it's nearly everything Metal.

Jay-Z's "99 Problems"

Pretty self explanatory.

My gf switched that song off on me once, so I said "Well, it seems I have 100 problems"...got into a huge fight over it.:p

Nancy, is that you?

[Ringo]

my woman don't do that. oh no she doesn't.

[Val1]

I don't listen to the radio in the car, but once I had I Don't Like Mondays by the Boomtown Rats on CD and my then-girlfriend came in and turned it off. We didn't fight because I'm not the fighting type, but when we broke up, I played Fine Art of Surfacing (the album) 7 or 8 times. I was over her in about 2 days.

My sister and her husband actually walked into their wedding reception to that song. I was incredulous. How did they pull that off when I couldn't even say crap or damn in my house growing up!!!

[Crimen y Castigo]

It's 1992.
I'm at my then-girlfriend's apartment.
I'm in a boho, art-head, turtleneck-under-a-leather-jacket mode.
I'm drinking a glass of wine, enjoying Ryuichi Sakamoto's soundtrack to "The Last Emperor."
She comes out of the shower, only a towel over her would-give-sight-to-the-blind body.
She unceremoniously ejects the tape and plops in another.
She descends the stairs to her bedroom, shaking her red, red, wet hair as Robert Plant starts screaming:


"Hey, hey Mama
Said the way you move
Gonna make you sweat
Gonna make you groove...."

I'm off the couch on the stairs and after the towel before Jimmy Page's hand hits the strings.

I'm sorry I love this song and I don't care who knows it. Whenever it comes on an oldie station I crank it and start boogeying in my car. :D Love that rhythm guitar and those strings.

For me it happened frequently with a certain girl I was with. I remember she turned off "The Immigrant Song" by Led Zeppelin because she couldn't stand what she called Robert Plant's warbling "Ah-ah-ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh-ahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!" during the tune. It annoyed me but what can you do.

But there was one time when I put in a cassette of "Machine Gun" by Jimi Hendrix in and she turned it off right when he hits this absolutely amazing and stunning sustained note about 4 minutes into it. She said it hurt her ears. :rolleyes: His genius was definitely lost on her.

Props to you, I wouldn't have the guts to let that slip out of my mouth.
