OK, I think I’ve changed my mind. Carrie Underwood’s “[Before he Cheats](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaSy8yy-mr8)”… you know, the one where she trashes his car. ---

Maybe, but if she looks anything like Charlize Theron in [Monster](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbOyxdIHRuk) I am out the door. (Disclaimer = youtube has deemed this scene “inappropriate” for some viewers. Michelle Shocked for one, would be…sickened.) ---

I’m of several schools of thought on what it could be. Perhaps it’s a 15-year-old girl-power country anthem like “Man, I Feel Like a Woman” that would get her doing the no-pants dance on the hood of a Trans Am behind the Piggly Wiggly up the road at the end of the night. Or perhaps her favorite song is the one that reminds her of listening to the radio while putting back a bottle of Strawberry Hill with her girlfriends when she was young; some ultra annoying feel-good ‘party’ song like “Mambo #5.” Or perhaps there’s the possibility she gets all squishy for a sing-along hair-band acoustic ballad like “Patience.” "Don’t Stop Believin’ " is another great one. I just don’t know here. I just don’t know. ---

Something from when she was a teenager. If she’s 40 look at the mid to late 80s. You have go deeper than the drunken memories, back to her innocence. You’ll have a great time, and she’ll jump off a bridge tomorrow. ---

> [@Hal\_Briston](#): > > Well, my answer totally got taken. Something I noticed last night, by chance, is that even though I made this post “out of the blue” there’s another mention of this song in another thread (that I didn’t see until last night) within just an hour or so of this one. It made me wonder if the vibes are in the air and only heard by a sensitive few. Your post confirms the suspicion. I have been meaning to insert [this one](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59BZxgohr9g)into the mix to see how many beer bottles and bar stools would be hurled at the jukebox the nanosecond after it started playing.
