Writer's Block: Kill the music

My first thought was "MacArthur Park", but then I found Richard Harris's version; something about the harpsichords and picturing Dumbledore singing it makes it okay for me.
So yeah, for which song out of all of them CAN'T I develop a Stockholmy fondness?
"Love Story" by Taylor Swift. Makes me want to shake the girl till her teeth fall out, because My God, what are you doing perpetuating this "Must Have Boy To Be Happy," "Wait For Some Man To Decide How My Life Should Go" shyte? I get it, you're retelling Romeo & Juliet with an ending that doesn't involve suicide; very happy for you. But classic or not, THAT ONE doesn't do a lot to inspire healthy relationships, either! And at least they DID SOMETHING about their Deep Misunderstood Love besides throw tantrums on stairwells. Be proactive, for the love of all things!
TALK to your parents. TALK to eachother. REASON, you gits! It's not just for dead philosophers anymore!
And also: From Zero to Married in one parental conversation?! How'd that go? "No, you goddamn longhair, you may not take my daughter to the movies, but I'll walk her down the aisle for you if'n you're ready to commit." Gahhhhh....
Foam foam foam.
I'd gladly take any amount of money (particularly if it involves at least eight digits in front of the decimal) to listen to that one for a solid day, though. May as well generate income from it, since I won't be able to shake it now...
