Oh wow. What an awesome song. I usually hate boy bands, but that song really hits home. <P>But here's a question I have now... <P>My wife and I used to send songs to each other when we were dating, and in the first year of our marriage. Actually, while we were dating, I broke up with her for another woman, and she sent me a song and it did it to me and I came back to her and we were married soon after that.<P>I want to send this song to her. Do you guys think it is a bad idea?

Hey - what does this mean? My W (the WS) told me a few weeks ago that she really liked that song, the O-Town one... Is this bad for me or good?<P>zen

without knowing the context in which she said it.. I couldn't tell you. I don't know how anyone in an A could like that song.. unless they are getting (excuse me here) 'dissed by the OM/OW.<P>But the song is still good regardless what we pull out of it in pain. <P>I suppose if Kenny Rogers 'Lady' was still popular and playing all the time.. it would be a trigger for me also.. but it doesn't apply to me since I haven't heard it recently to be a trigger.<P>------------------<BR>Husband2You<BR>*****<BR>Don't make me promises <BR>Baby you never did know how to keep them well <BR>I've had the rest of you <BR>Now I want the best of you <BR>It's time for show and tell<P>'All or Nothing' © 2001 O-Town

Damn, that IS good...<P>I like the part in both songs (man, I can't believe I'm writing this -- NOT an O-Town fan, normally) about not being able to fight someone who's not there... I'd really kind of love it if it were really sort of like the old days, where I could just kick the OM's @$$ and "champion" my W off of her feet. Too bad we have lawsuits etc. these days...<P>zen<P>ps: OK, one more confession: I really kind of like "Pop" by N'Sync. But for some reason, the song that is REALLY stuck in my head right now is "Get Ur Freak On" by Missy... That joint jams...

Zen, I know what you mean! Sometimes I wish it were as simple as flying up to the OM's house and running him through with a sword, and your wife runs to your side, grateful for ridding her of this plague of a man.<P>But of course, that's not how things are. <P>Now since misery loves company, try making it through this song without crying like a baby...<P><BR>"Everybody Hurts"<BR>By REM<P>When your day is long and the night,<BR>The night is yours alone<BR>When you're sure you've had enough of this life,<BR>well hang on<BR>Don't let yourself go, 'cause everybody cries ,and everybody hurts<BR>Sometimes.., sometimes everything is wrong,<BR>Now it's time to sing along<BR>…<BR>If you think you've had too much of this life,<BR>well hang on<BR>'Cause everybody hurts,<BR>take comfort in your friends<BR>Everybody hurts,<BR>don't throw your hands, oh now,<BR>Don't throw your hands<BR>If you feel like you're alone,<BR>no, no, no, you're not alone<BR>If you're on your own in this life,<BR>the days and nights are long<BR>When you think you've had too much,<BR>of this life, to hang on<P>Well everybody hurts, sometimes<BR>Everybody cries, and everybody hurts, sometimes<BR>But everybody hurts sometimes<BR>so hold on, hold on, hold on,<BR>Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on,<BR>Everybody hurts, you are not alone<BR>

Here's two songs for you. I wrote the lyrics for both songs in letters I wrote my W and even gave her the cds. Now everytime we go some where together and one of these songs plays on the radio, which happens alot, she gets this sad look and changes the station. She will always have to think of me and remeber what she has done to me and our family when she hears these songs.<P>"Drops of Jupiter(Tell Me)" by TRAIN<BR>"If You'er Gone" by MATCHBOX TWENTY<P>They are kind of dark I guess but I'll admit they say how I feel sometimes.<P>silwl

How about that new song by Uncle Cracker about infidelity. Every time I hear it I have to turn it off because it says a lot about how my wife and OM met. One day in the car my wife was listening to the song and she actually started to sing it. That is about the only song she has sung to. I should have known. Does anyone have the words?
