Man upset over sad song shot radio

 A Texas man was apparently not happy with a song playing on the radio.

A daily activity report stated that an Angelina County Sheriff’s Office deputy responded to a 911 call about shots fired at a home at about 6:07am on Sunday.

He found a man inside avehicle in his own yard. The man told the deputy that he had got drunk and was in his pick-up listening to music when a sad song he didn’t like began playing.

At that point, the suspect, who was not identified, allegedly shot the radio in his truck with a .22-calibre pistol. “Suspect’s wife took possession of the handgun and suspect,” the activity report stated.

  29. Seasons in the Sun. The one in English. Puke-making. Needs a S&W 686 adjustment. Oh heck I don’t even like the Jacques Brel version even though it’s slightly tolerable.
    What saxinindacity said, Honey/Bobby Goldsboro.
    Everything John Denver sang.

  51. Nearly any song by Pat Boone except for his song about Speedy Gonzalez. Can’t stand Bobby Goldsboro and there ought to be a special place in Hell for One Tin Soldier by Coven and Harper Valley PTA by Jeannie C Riley and Ode To Billie Jo. In The Year 2525 by Zager and Evans deserves it as well, I hate that song, and don’t even get me started on Imagine by John Lennon.

  70. Will Smith – Wild Wild West
    I’m Too Sexy – RS Fred
    Ice Ice Baby
    Macarena
    Sussudio (suck suck suckio)
    Don’t Worry Be Happy
    We Built This City
    And anything by that assclown Michael Bolton.

  98. Love Plus Ten – Haircut 100
    Girl You Know It’s True – Milli Vanilli
    Safety Dance – Men Without Hats
    Wake Me Up Before You Go Go – Wham
    Putting On The Ritz – Taco
    Sister Christian – Night Ranger
    Electric Youth – Debbie Gibson

  101. Nope, no drugs. That dude from Rush has such a whiny voice I want to slap him, and Pink Floyd bores me to tears. I must say, though, some of the choices are here baffle me. The Eagles? Who the hell hates The Eagles other than John Goodman’s retarded character in The Big Lebowski? LOL

  113. Heard Elvis singing that for the first time. Loved the way he did it.
    The best version of ‘How Great Thou Art” I heard in Romania back in 1977 by an underground Nazarene church.

  116. There’s something commercially fake, or overly sweet, I think, about her music. But she really is a fine woman who greatly supports the troops. I might even like to hang around with her if she promised not to sing any Christmas songs. lol

    “How great thou art” was one of my mom’s favorite songs, I like that one too. (Just not when Cristy sings it).

  126. Last I heard she was raising hell about people riding four wheelers near her land in Idaho. And I can kind of understand about the noise, but yes, she is an envrio-nut.
    I used to really like her music back in the 70s. Bought her Tapestry as a gift for my sister, just before it went gold, and she really loved it. The album certified diamond.
    It’s too bad all the good ones pull to the Left. 🙁

  127. A few years ago I was in a car dealership and they were playing, no, actually blaring Hip-Hop music over their in-house speakers. I told the dealer I couldn’t concentrate with the “music” playing could he turn it down? He couldn’t get it done. So we left.

  132. Love Shack, by the B-52’s. Pontoon, by Little Big Town. Gangnam Style, by the pudgy, little, America-hating Korean. Any John Mayer song. Anything by David Lee Roth, Jefferson Starship, The Pointer Sisters, Stevie Nicks, or Taylor Swift. And quite a few of those listed by others, above.

  133. #1 stinker is, *drum roll*
    Ebony and Ivory – Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder

    Also;
    Elusive Butterfly – Bob Lind
    Honey – Bobby Goldsboro
    Seasons in the Sun – Terry Jacks
    MacArthur Park – Richard Harris
    Send in the Clowns – Judy Collins

  145. For a long time I thought anything by Air Supply fit the bill.

    But the group that actually made me stop listening to the radio was the Red Hot Chili Peppers. It isn’t music, it’s noise.

  147. There’s a whole class of music that makes me think violent thoughts: some musical perverts record “easy listening” instrumentals of classic hard rock songs and somehow sell the stuff to retail stores and elevator operators. Think the Stones’ “Street Fighting Man” by a string orchestra.

  148. I’m with you, I hate Musak (as in hack music) and elevator music and the damned annoying loud music they play while they have you on hold on the phone. I had some of that yesterday, I had to put the phone away from my ear till they got back to me. Aargh!

  150. Anything by Melanie, the Bangles or that damn song, “Mickey”.

    Three months as an AM top-40s disc jockey nearly made me psychotic, but I was saved by acid, Wild Turkey and Dr. Pepper.

  156. Great point, Al.
    Some stores in my town play the worst crap you ever heard.
    It seems to be mostly the formula stuff churned out by those American talent show winners. And it is beyond garbage.
    Just the words “Kelly Clarkson” make my teeth hurt.

  158. I fear we’ve missed the golden opportunity to write our own CW chart-topper here. Surely a whiny ballad of “I shot my raid-yo, can you guess what I was liss-nen to?” stands a chance at going platinum?

    Just to clarify, my contribution is “I shot the sheriff” – Derek & the Dominoes, from ‘Layla’.

  162. That’s funny; I have no problem with performers making as much money as possible. Not sure of what Petty song to which you are referring, but along the same vein, “Renegade” by X Ambassadors is played incessantly on “guy channels”. Was a pretty good song (untile the 10,000th playing) that they are getting hyper rich off of. More power too them.
