Anyone else have to deal with this when traveling with the wife?

Not in the van, but at home.. there's not much I don't like about my wife.. but country music is one of them.. she feels she has to sing with any song that comes on the radio or MP3. So typically, while she is in the van with me, I play 80's or ambient which don't have any lyrics.. Plus I've been editing the currect tracks with audacity which allows me to remove the lyrics or chores in the back ground.
 
When my wife stops singing, something is seriously wrong. Plus, she sings wonderfully, and harmonizes with Stone Sour, (Corey Taylor) wonderfully. Sadly, as soon as I told her I love to hear her sing to this, she stopped...


 
Nope.. mine passes out in a couple miles. We joke when she gets older it'll be like driving a toddler around so they sleep, only it's the wife.
My wife is asleep before we hit the city limits! Once on the highway and she has settled into a nice nap, I ease over onto the rumble strips and she always says ‘ I wasn’t asleep’ without opening her eyes. :D

The rumble doesn't affect mine, she'll sleep right through it. Usually it's just the kids, 11 and 14 they still don't understand. I save the rumble strips for when she's awake and cranky.
 
We tend to play audio books on long trips.

I wouldn’t mind if my wife wanted to sing.

I also don’t mind her taste in music.
 
This thread reminds me...I need a road trip playlist for March. If my wife makes it, there will be way too much Madonna and MSM.
 
I want to listen to the air conditioner, I'm usually at odds with my passengers.
 
I’m surprised my wife doesn’t sing in the car; her and the daughter have been taking voice classes, so it’d be natural. Maybe they do, just not when I’m in the car—when I’m in the car, I’m the one driving, and it’s possible that they’re too busy praying instead.
