My Girlfriend's Girlfriend

"My Girlfriend's Girlfriend" is a song from American gothic metal band Type O Negative's 1996 album October Rust. The first single off of the aforementioned album,[1] it describes a polyamorous relationship. According to an interview in Livewire, it was written at bandmate Josh Silver's house in a short amount of time.[2] With its prominent organ and the almost lighthearted mood throughout, the song much more closely resembles 1960s psychedelic rock than the doom metal that prevails for most of the album.
