  • That's just it though. I'm trying NOT to force my music on her for a change. Besides it's pointless. She'll only say the lyrics make no sense and that the musicians can't play. :D

    Anyway, I won't complain anymore. I'm starting to remember stuff that she likes now. (Skater Boy-Avril Lavigne and UB40).
    oh my god.

    you have my sympathies. my sincerest sympathies...

    :D:p

    your mum has no ears!! i'm sorry to hear that.. :(
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
  • maybe simple red ,beatles ,queen,pearl jam,janis joplin,would be good for the cd
    "You're the eve of my destruction in the garden of fears"

    No she hates all those.

    I just flicked online again to see if anyone has anymore ideas. I'm stuck again now. I've gone through all different music genres and soundtracks. I'll try some of the others above.

    I find it physically impossible to upset anyone who uses the term "boobaloo". So perhaps you're not the best example. ;)
    "The leads are weak!"

    "The leads are weak? Fuckin' leads are weak? You're Weak! I've Been in this business 15 years"

    "What's your name?"

    "FUCK YOU! THAT"S MY NAME!"
  • You know, my mom doesn't like any of the music that I like. She's like 67 and once made me turn off Meat is Murder in the car because it was making her nervous. WTF? :rolleyes: :D

    But one record that she absolutely LOVED was RHCP's By the Way.

    Go figure.

    She also likes Neil Finn's solo record from a couple years ago. One All, I think it was called.

    So, you seem to know a lot of crappy songs... any help? :)

    I've got 'She's Like The Wind' Patrick Swayze and a cover of 'Tears In Heaven' on the panpipes so far. :

    I prefer my mom not enjoying my musical tastes. She tries too hard and will attempt singing along to songs she has never heard whilst dancing in the car. So now when mom and I are in the same car it's all Tchiacovsky. Try and dance to that ma! My favorite time in the car with her though was when I was listening to Soundgarden's "Ty Cobb". "What are they saying there?" she asked. That would be "Hard Headed Fuck You All, Mom". "Ah, I see". She no longer sang along to that one! :D

    Your mum sounds really sweet.

    I remember my mum reading through the lyrics on the inlay card of 'In Utero' and giggling. She said the words were so silly and started giggling. :D
    There was another time when we were driving home from work (we worked in the same place) and she actually stopped the car and said 'Have you heard what I've got to listen to'? to the people walking home and laughed! And then THEY laughed and started taking the piss! It was Janes Addiction and I think I'll need therapy for that one. :)

    I'll see what I can do. If we're talking Kenny Rogers you can't deny the beauty that is his duet with Dolly "Islands In The Stream". From there I would move on to the Oak Ridge Boys "Elvira" after all WHO DOESN'T like to oomp ba ba along with the words?!? Finally, as an album closer I would go with Roger Miller's "King Of The Road". No matter if you're driving or just lounging around the house there is no reason why you can't be the King (or Queen in this example) of the Road.

    My mom really is a sweet lady. As to your mom reading the lyrics to 'In Utero' I would have cringed once she got to 'Rape Me'. I think you'll need therapy for both of your examples! :D;)

    That was the song she particularly couldn't grasp. :D

  • a couple years ago I got in the car with my parents to go somewhere and they were listening to Appetite for Destruction. It was very odd.
