...and I wanna send her a bunch of music to listen to while she drives around and thinks.

I already plan on these:
Beck - Seachange
Bob Dylan - Blood on the Tracks
Amy Rigby's entire discography

Further suggestions?

do you want her to get a divorce?

Donna Brown (Donna Brown), Friday, 23 April 2004 15:28 (twenty-two years ago)

"Let's Stay Together"
"Stay With Me Baby"
"Stand By Your Man"

just for balance, y'know?

"My Baby Does the Hanky-Panky" Tommy James & the Shondells (cuz, y'know, she may not want to wallow in misery)

I do not want her to get divoriced, but I want to be supportive.

How 'bout positive, self-esteem-boosting stuff. This is surely a very tough deal for her and maybe a bunch songs about divorce will make her hear: "Hey, you're getting a divorce! You will never be loved again! You are a failure!"

The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 23 April 2004 15:43 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah. I dunno. It's a tough call. Funny that this is my way of supporting her. But (a) I live half way 'cross the country; and (b) she doesn't really want to have much of an open conversation about it.

I hear you on that one. Emotions are like, uh, trips to the dentist.

Leonard Cohen - Why Don't You Try

Marcel Post (Marcel Post), Friday, 23 April 2004 16:06 (twenty-two years ago)

"Daddy, Don't You Walk So Fast"

"Divorce Song" - Liz Phair

To get a fun movie jolt of emotion, I always like to pretend that I'm in this song. As Liz Phair. But I'm not. I'm a married guy instead. Kind of like pretenting you're a gladiator.

The entire "Have you fed the fish" album by Badly Drawn Boy, believe me !!

Anything stripped down, quiet (as in using few instruments), introspective, but not meditative (i.e. not ambient, new-age-y). I'm thinking of stuff like John Cale's "Fragments of a Rainy Season", Drugstore's third album, or Movietone.
