I hate the song JACK AND DIANE

Several years ago, I rented a house with a few of my friends. One Sunday afternoon, we thought it would be a good idea to go down to one of the local bars and buy a case of beer for 5 bucks ( think CHEAP beer here ). The impulsiveness of youth can be a good thing....or a bad thing.


For some reason, this particular bar ( that used smelly socks in it's air vent. system ) also sold popular albums ( that's right, I said ALBUMS...no CD's in those days mon ) for dirt cheap. Ditty Diane sees the John Mellancamp one for 5 bucks and decides she must have it then and there.

We go home...drink a few beers and...then it happens. Ditty Diane decides that she LOVES ( and I mean LOVES ) the song Jack and Diane and thus makes us listen to it over...and over...and over....pee some,drink more...listen to it more....then get up on the heating pipes ( what the monkey do you call those? ) and PRETEND your a nightclub singer.

It was ugleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee my friends. Ugly.

To this day, I hate that song but whenever I hear it ( without fail! ) I think of Ditty Diane.

Totally seems like it should have been your anthem, MM.

I can't think of a contemporary-ish song I hate. hmmmmm

I like the name Jack, Momi. I bet Kahlik likes it, too - snort.

You know Mama, I might have liked the song had I NOT been subjected to it for 18,675 times on the stereo. I do quickly smile when I hear it just before I switch stations.


Momiji - Kahlik is married to a NICE Jack so let's pretend your step dad never existed.

THAT IS A GREAT SONG AND IT BRINGS BACK FOND MEMORIES OF OUR MORE MATURE DAYS.

Laura, you have scarred me for life with that song...and yes we were very mature. Remember, I can whisper above a blow dryer.
