I believe the king of this category would be Every Step You Take.

Add yours while I think of a few of mine.

Pretty much everything that any guy I dated in my teens wanted to be "our song".

That was the one I thought of first. It gives me the creeps.

The One I Love by R.E.M. is another.

There's a third I know but I have to remember it on my own. I don't want to google it.

ETA: Got it - Into the Night by Benny Mardones

One by U2.

In this vein, My Immortal by Evanescence is about Jesus. For real.

I loled.

[esdreturns]

What about that Clay Aiken song where he's like I sneak into your room and watch you? lol

This was one of the ones a high school boyfriend tried to make "our song". Also "Crying" by Aerosmith, same boyfriend. When he suggested we pick something by Meatloaf, I bailed.

I remember when I was planning my wedding and was thinking of songs for the reception. My sister was soooooo excited when she came up with the idea of using Daughters by John Mayer for the father-daughter dance. I was like "um, have you LISTENED to the words of that song?!"

Wikipedia says My Immortal is about the writer's grandfather.

This is no less creepy. I think I liked the Jesus version better.

Ha! How about the drunk dialing song to end all drunk dialing songs.

Need you now by Lady Antebellum

Granted, I love the harmony in that song so I play it full tilt and sing it nice and loud but I said I wouldn't call but I'm a little drunk and I need you now? Bitch, please. You need rosy palms, mmkay?

[elfinia7]

Lips of an Angel by Hinder

[partiallysunny]

I'd Really Love to See You Tonight -I don't know who sings it

I love that song and also sing it at the top of my lungs. However, let's all be clear...the song is about booty callin'! LOL.

OMG, YES!!!!

Having a man sneak into the bathroom to call you so his girlfriend won't hear is not.hot.

/gavel

Oh, that Hinder song is terrrrrible. Ugh.

That Gotye song. Dude does not appear to understand what a break-up is. I always picture him like Paul Rudd's character in The 40 Year Old Virgin.

David: I dated this girl for four months, and it was the best thing in my life! Until she went down on this guy in... an Escalade, I think.
Andy: Where is she now?
David: Oh she's dating some pot dealer which is a stupid horrible decision, but hey - that's her journey. If she wants to be a fucking immature bitch and blow everybody... But that's love, man.
