An Australian woman stabbed her de facto husband to death after he stopped her playing her favorite Bruce Springsteen CD.

Karen Lee Cooper told arresting police: "I couldn't even play Bruce Springsteen on my stereo -- can you believe that? Can you believe that?"

She later again told police: "I mean, who doesn't like Bruce Springsteen? I'm 49 years old and I want to play my own music."

In the Supreme Courty in Brisbane Thursday, Cooper, 50, was jailed for eight years.

She pleaded guilty to the manslaughter of Kevin Lee Watson on July 8, 2006.

She was originally charged with murder but the court accepted a manslaughter plea on the basis she had no intention to kill.

The court heard Cooper stabbed Watson through the aorta after they had been drinking at their Cedar Grove home, south of Brisbane.

I don't think that it was his wife that stabbed him. I think Steve Van Zandt reprised his role from the the Sopranos and was pissed off.

If my wife listened to Springsteen, I'd stab her too.

I can remember my guitar teacher strumming an A chord over and over and mocking Springsteen......

Springsteen had his day...

Even Clapton is intolerable these days trying to be the reincarnation of Mr. R. Johnson. Almost makes me want to stab myself.

I think she should get off with public service and a slap on the wrist.

"Cedar Grove"? Well that explains it!
