I'm in kind of a wierd mood today so I thought I'd start a poll of all those song titles out there that act as triggers. Before discovery I used to laugh wholeheartedly at the Country music played backwards joke, and then after discovery I became it's biggest fan. (Ha Ha Ha) Anyway, I'll start off the list... Unless you want to purposely ball your eyes out I'd stay away from the entire Surfacing album by Sarah Mclaughlin. There's also an Eagles song, but I can't remember the title right now.

"I'd like to have that one back"<P>George Strait<P>If you have any remorse over the way you have treated your H/W this is a killer

"Some Kind of Wonderful"..."talkin' 'bout my baby... I forget who wrote it...it's an oldie. <P>The whole first part of that song... "I don't have to run around, I don't have to stay out all night, cause I got me a sweet, sweet lovin' woman..." <P>My H used to sing that too me everytime we heard it. It was one of our fav's. It came on the radio last night when we were in the car, he started singing, and I told him, he's gotta earn this song back... a bit of a LB? Oh well, right? <P>And that darned "Goin' to the Chapel"...stay away!!!! <P>It's kind of hard to listen to the radio at all, because it all reminds me of "before d-day"...<P>

<BR>beth28,<P>I'm not sure of which Eagles tune you're thinking of, but "Lyin' Eyes" deals with infidelity.<P>"You can't hide your lyin' eyes.<BR> And your smile is a thin disguise.<BR> Thought by now, you'd realize.<BR> There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes."<P>Bystander

Definately "Lyin' Eyes" by the Eagles. I can't listen to it ever. It used to be one of my favorite songs too.<P>------------------<BR>Keridwen

Do not even go near "You were mine" by the Dixie Chicks !<P>I do like Wade Hayes "How can you sleep at night" though.<P>HisGarthness' "The Dance" helps me make some sense of why I have stayed through all I have. <P>------------------<BR>Just call me - Deb<BR>------------------------<BR>The only day I can do anything about is today, yesterday is gone, tomorrow is not yet mine.<P>

theres "Take it to the limit" by the eagles<BR>"I'm so happy(that I cant stop cryin)"byToby Keith "Carring your love with me" by George stragit<BR>"lay down your arms" by perl jam<BR>"The trouble with never", "My best friend" and "You dont love me anymore" all by Tim Mcgraw. And my personaly worst...."Good bye Earl" by the dixie chicks (not for the words just the good bye part with my H's name)and their "you were mine" <BR>there are tons mor but there is not enough space here.<BR>Lesa<BR>if you havent heard these let me know by E-mail or somethin I got plenty of waves I made. <BR>------------------<BR>"Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and<BR> lean not unto thine own understanding." -Proverbs 3:5<BR>Take care and God Bless.<P> lms20ish@jobe.net <P>[This message has been edited by LMS (edited February 10, 2000).]<p>[This message has been edited by LMS (edited February 14, 2000).]

There is that sone by Aerosmith "Don't Want to Close My Eyes" from Armegeddon (sp). That makes me wish someone loved me that much.<P>"Bloody Black Backpack" gives me evil ideas .<P>I know, I'm going rock n' roll on you.<p>[This message has been edited by Tired LuLu (edited February 10, 2000).]

<BR>Billy Vera & the Beaters - At this Moment<P>What did you think<BR>I would do at this moment?<BR>When you're standing before me<BR>with tears in your eyes<BR>Tryin' to tell me you <BR>found you another<BR>and you just don't love me anymore<P>What did you think<BR>I would say at this moment?<BR>When I'm faced with the knowledge<BR>that you just don't love me<BR>Did you think I would curse you?<BR>Or say things to hurt you?<BR>Cause you just don't love me no more.<P>Could you think I would hate you?<BR>Or raise my hands to you?<BR>Now come on you know me too well.<BR>How could I hurt you?<BR>Darling I love you<BR>and you know<BR>I'd never hurt you<P> What did you think<BR> I would give at this moment?<BR> If you'd stay I'd subtract twenty years from my life<BR> I'd fall down on my knees,<BR> kiss the ground that you walk on<BR> If I could just hold you again.<P><BR> **** <P>And any number of songs from Gordon Lightfoot, a master lyricist who can create razor-sharp images with so few words, but Talking in Your Sleep or If You Could Read My Mind always make me cry. <P><BR>

just thought I'd add to what purplemag wrote. Some kinda Wonderful, is by Grand Funk Railroad. <P>Also "Wonderful Tonight" by Eric Clapton. Me and H used to listen to it all the time and dance around the livingroom to it. YUK!! Makes me so sad now!!<P>

Don't forget Sheryl Crow...<P>--keystone

moira2<P>AHHHHHH!<P>That song is the worst. The begining especially. I just sang it myself and cried!!<BR>

<BR>Don't forget Elton John, either. Excerpted from "Sacrifice":<P>"It's a human sign<BR> When things go wrong<BR> When the scent of her lingers<BR> And temptation's strong<P> Into the boundary<BR> Of each married man<BR> Sweet deceit comes calling<BR> And negativity lands"<P>See also, "Love Lies Bleeding," "Nobody Wins," "Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word," and "Sleeping with the Past," among others I'm probably forgetting.<P>Bystander<BR>

"Put Your Hand in Mine" by Tracy Byrd<P>"Don't Breathe" by Brad Paisley<BR>(but "It Never Would Have Worked Out Anyway" is funny)<P>"She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy" by Kenny Chesney (ok, so that one has nothing to do with infidelity - it just reminds me of my H)<P><BR>

It is ironic I was thinkin about posting this very topic...<P>Songs for me are our wedding song...<BR>Shinning Star: the Manhattans<P>One of my alltime favorites...this really pisses me off because I can't listen to it any more....<P>I Wanna Learn A Lovesong: Harry Chape.<BR>The line; It took another man's wife<BR>In the real world life<BR>To make this <B>BOY</B> a man...<P>AAARRRGGG<P>Bill<P>------------------<BR>BB<BR>

Bryan Adams "Run to You"

Definitely - "You were mine" Dixie Chicks<P>Here are some others:<P>"Today my world slipped away" George Straight<P>"Angel" Aerosmith<P>"You're Gone" Diamond Rio<P>"Against All Odds" Phil Collins<P>"After All" Cher and Peter Setera<P>I could go on and on, but I'll stop and give others a chance.

"If You Steal My Sunshine" by Len is the big one....<P>"Possession" by Sarah McLachlan..as well as the entire "surfacing" album<P>"Sugar Magnolia" by The Grateful Dead<P>and finally............drumroll.......<P>anything by the the 'flake' OW's fave....Amanda Marshall...such as this kind of crap....<P>I will wait for you like I promised I would<BR>although it brings me pain<BR>and you always knew what to say to lead me to believe its not in vain<BR>I was safe and secure when you were there with me<BR>but it could only last til the day that she took you back again...<P>BARF, PUKE, GAG, RETCH....<P>the rest of the album is tailor made for the flake....<P><BR>Dylan

"Cross My Heart" by George Strait.... it really sucks because I love that song! The fist time I heard it, I knew it would be the first dance at our wedding. "Broken Promises" by Randy Travis is another one that gets me.... there are so many.<P><BR>How about some <B>GOOD</B> songs to listen to? Like:<P>Cher -- "Believe", "All or Nothing" and "Now I'm Strong Enough" (I think that's the title-- it's track # 5 on the CD). One more on that CD don't know the title but it goes 'Sooner or later, we all sleep alone'.<P>I also really like "All Things Considered" by Yankee Gray. <P>Anyhoo, those are my motivational songs! I also like to listen to Metalica - The Black Album. They get my blood pumping, and make me feel better. My own personal "Kick @$$" songs!<P>Thoughts & Prayers,<BR>B<P><P>------------------<BR>There are deep sorrows and killing cares in life, but the encouragement and love of friends were given us to make all difficulties bearable. <BR>-- John Oliver Holmes<P>The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference.<BR>-- Elie Wiesel<P><BR>

and speaking of metallica.....sigh....<P>Nothing Else Matters....<P>So close no matter how far<BR> Couldn't be much more from the heart<BR> Forever trusting who we are<BR> And nothing else matters<P> Never opened myself this way<BR> Life is ours, we live it our way<BR> All these words I don't just say<BR> And nothing else matters<P> Trust I seek and I find in you<BR> Every day for us something new<BR> Open mind for a different view<BR> And nothing else matters<P> Never cared for what they do<BR> Never cared for what they know<BR> But I know<P> So close no matter how far <BR> Couldn't be much more from the heart<BR> Forever trusting who we are<BR> And nothing else matters<P> Never cared for what they do<BR> Never cared for what they know<BR> But I know<BR> <BR> Never opened myself this way<BR> Life is ours, we live it our way<BR> All these words I don't just say<BR> <BR> Trust I seek and I find in you<BR> Every day for us something new<BR> Open mind for a different view<BR> And nothing else matters<BR> <BR> Never cared for what they say<BR> Never cared for games they play<BR> Never cared for what they do<BR> Never cared for what they know<BR> And I know<P> So close no matter how far<BR> Couldn't be much more from the heart<BR> Forever trusting who we are<BR> No nothing else matters<P>
