Songs where the singer needs a MN intervention

I’ve got a Spotify playlist running and Jolene by Dolly Parton has just played.

If ever a woman needed to hear some truths from MN it is her. If she has to plead with the OW to leave her man alone, she isn’t in a great place!!

I’m sure there are loads out there that MN could help the singer, whatever the problem 😉

Adele - someone like you.
Don’t be a stalker, luv.

MardyBra · 27/01/2019 12:25

Did I really just spell love as luv.
What’s wrong with me FFS?

AviatorShades · 27/01/2019 12:26

I've always thought of Every Breath you Take as the ultimate Stalker's SongShock

And don't forget

"When I, I get to know your name
And I can trace your private number, baby"

Stalker alert Grin.

I hated the PussyCatDolls one
Don't you wish your girlfriend... terrible portray of women

Fairenuff · 27/01/2019 12:35

Also Sting Don't Stand so Close to me

The guy had issues.

OMGithurts · 27/01/2019 12:37

@planespotting no, it's meant to be a stalker song

"In a 1983 interview with the New Musical Express, Sting explained: "I think it's a nasty little song, really rather evil. It's about jealousy and surveillance and ownership." "

Adele - "Hello" - wants to meet up "after all these years" etc etc - get over it, he's moved on and you should too!

BobbyGentry · 27/01/2019 12:40

He’s obviously not that into you Kylie, build some self respect and think about completing the freedom program, sounds like he’s already attached and is just vying for attention in, ‘I should be so lucky.’

♪ I should be so lucky
Lucky, lucky, lucky
I should be so lucky in love

It's a crazy situation
You always keep me waiting
Because it's only make believe

You need to listen to Sylvia's Mother, Dr Hook

ABBA - When You Kissed The Teacher - you were wildly inappropriate and could've got him sacked. You were being v v v v U.

Gene - It doesn't matter you were Only 24 Hours from Tulsa, you are a lying cheating shit!

What a great thread OP Star

I'm going to think of more!

Seadragonusgiganticusmaximus · 27/01/2019 12:46

Livin on a Prayer by Bon Jovi

Tommy doesn’t work and is clearly a cocklodger. Gina needs to stop listening to all his bullshit about “holding on” and “making it” and kick him out and change the locks.

RedHatsDoNotSuitMe · 27/01/2019 12:46

Kinky Boots - they'll love 'em on Style and Beauty board

RedHatsDoNotSuitMe · 27/01/2019 12:47

Laid - James. You sound like you're having fun, but it doesn't seem like a very healthy relationship for either of you. I'd get out if I were you

StealthPolarBear · 27/01/2019 12:48

In a similar vein, fast car by Tracy Chapman. If you buy a fast car, drive it on your own. You have the drive and work ethic and he doesn't

StealthPolarBear · 27/01/2019 12:48

And your childhood was abusive

ScreamingValenta · 27/01/2019 12:49

It's my party and I'll cry if I want to.

Nooo! Just tell Judy and Johnny to get out and then enjoy yourself with the rest of your mates.

RedHatsDoNotSuitMe · 27/01/2019 12:51

Luka (Suzanne Vega) - you need to speak to someone urgently. Is there a teacher you trust?

RedHatsDoNotSuitMe · 27/01/2019 12:52

Stealth - and Tracey needs to stop listening Behind the Wall and call 999

KnockMeDown · 27/01/2019 12:52

Secret Love Song by Little Mix

Run to you by Bryan Adams

Both affair situations

Sparklingbrook · 27/01/2019 12:53

I thought Nothing Compares 2 U was about drugs. Confused

ZaZathecat · 27/01/2019 12:53

BobbyGentry, your name has reminded me of one: Ode to Billy Joe. I'm not sure whether to advise her to try to find new friends, or point her towards the stately homes threads!

RedHatsDoNotSuitMe · 27/01/2019 12:54

And, Candi Staton - you need to stop chasing after this shit and find someone worthy of you (Young Hearts Run Free)
