Thread Name: The effect of country music on suicide
Subject: RE: The effect of country music on suicide
I am starting a support group for people who have been country musically abused.
my names and Alan, and it started with me several years ago. it was a normal sort of day, I slipped out after dinner for a small sherry, and I was returning around two o'clock the next morning.
by chance when I returned home, a record that I knew well was playing on the radio - She's Mine, by George Jones.
Now up to then I was feeling fine, but suddenly came the lines....'since her Mommy left this world, She's been Daddy's little girl, and as far as my hearts concerned she's mi - ine!'
As you can imagine the first onset of nausea was devastating and the stains are still in the living room carpet. Luckily with counselling I was able eventually to return to normal life.
Wink Martindale's Deck of Cards and I think we would be telling a different story.
One day if I avoid areas of temptation like the Mike Harding Show I hope to be completely rehabilitated.
If someone tells you'd look good in cowboy hat, just say no.
