What's the best adultery song?
In light of current events, KFOG's Dave Morey conducted a contest this morning for the best adultery song ever.
His listeners (of a certain demographic) nominated a bunch, including the Eagles' "Lyin' Eyes," Elvin Bishop's "Fooled Around and Fell in Love," and Derek and the Dominos' "Layla" -- which has the advantage of being about the most famous adulterous affair since, what, Paris and Helen of Troy?
Dave's winner: "Me and Mrs. Jones," by Billy Paul, which isn't much musically but does have lyrics that resonate with people who've got a thing going on.
Even more poignant, though not reflective of the mess at City Hall, there's Whitney Houston's "Saving All My Love For You."

Adultery, is to me, the ultimate sin. You break your vow to G-d and your spouse. Hmmm. If you use 'you' like that it means everyone generally. I make no vows to any deity.
I'd rather break my vow to my spouse than kill my spouse. I think there are a heck of lot of things worse than adultery.
Of course, this is my own view. Yours is different.
