Ever notice how many songs are written or sang about men and their experiences with women? Women are definitely a popular topic. How many songs have you seen about how much a man loves a woman and can't do without her, how sad the guy is that he lost this woman, about how the woman cheated, how he's gonna fight for her love, how much better he is than some other guy and how great he is in bed, etc... In Trinidad our Calypsonians LOVE to sing about women, I'm sure its 95% of what they sing about. In the early days of the Steelpan(our national instrument) many of the violent clashes with rival steelband groups were over...you guessed it - WOMEN! A guy had to be careful if he was too friendly with a women associated with certian steelband and he was from a different band. That could lead to World War III in violent retribution. Thought it would be kinda interesting to see what songs others had heard by men about women.

Here's a humorous Calypso where the guy doesn't trust his lady to not give away his stuff to some new boyfriend when he croaks - in this case his clothes. So he wants to have all his stuff buried with him.
