Mark Little had a good bit on this topic, and Van Morrison.

I don't know how to link to specific times, but the bit is around the 6 minute mark.

When they released that song, Paul was 20, which means he probably wrote it at 19 or 18. Not too creepy.

Me dancing at a Mexican party when I stop and listen to the lyrics like why are we dancing to this and my wife says just don't listen too closely

Colegiala? Yeah, ew.

The worst one in that vein for me is Little Girls by Oingo Bingo. It feels like it's trying to be a parody, but never quite gets there and just comes across as super uncomfortable.

“Christine! Sixte- err . . Seven . . Eighteen!”

“When I saw you comin’ outta school that day - I mean, uh, out of . . your office complex . . . Where you’re a, uh, regional sales manager . . . I knew I got to have you!”

Anybody ever heard Seventeen’ by Winger?

[–] [email protected] -2 points 5 months ago (4 children)

"winger"? I mean, hair metal sucks, but the names of these lower tier bands are just crap, it makes me think of the Patton Oswald bit about music videos. "Maybe I'll get some action from the guys of haircut 100 because I'm not getting any from the guys in Jackal with a y!"

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago

Hair metal is the fucking tits. Gtfo with that :p

I was just thinking the other day about how I went to a highschool with the panther as the mascot, and how disgusting it is that we used to play Cat Scratch Fever in band at football games...

I'd assume its a song about a father talking about how much he loves his young daughter. Perhaps I'm just an optimist.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Think About Things by Daði Freyr is that - a parental love song for a literal baby.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I love this song so much. An absolute banger every time I hear it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

When I grabbed that link, I ended up listening to the song twice, lol. Just can't help it, it's too good.

Tyler claimed their relationship was consensual and that he had immunity because he was her legal guardian at the time.

In what world does that make any fucking sense? "It's okay for me to groom her because I only had absolute legal authority over her."

[–] [email protected] 33 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Super fun fact that isn’t fun at all:

In most states (possibly all) if a child under 18 is married to an adult over 18, their legal guardian changes from their parents to their now-spouse. So teeeeechnically, depending on the situation for the change of guardianship, that could actually be a totally legit loophole. In a very much should never be allowed to happen sort of way, naturally.

Before this gets weird, I only know that because I needed to know liquor laws, as my state allows minors to drink with their legal guardian who is over 21 which does include spouses. Nobody honors that at all (typically not even for parents because it’s really hard to prove legal guardianship), but technically that’s how it works.

'Sarah' by Thin Lizzy is one example.
