Now Playing In My Head

Early this morning. Very early this morning, my friend Tony signed online, and we greeted each other. He said, "Sigh. I woke up this morning with Herbert VonKarian's Berlin Philharmonic's Blue Danube in my head." I told him, "That's funny. I'm sitting here, and I can't get "Roses and Lollipops," and "Ole Man River" out of my head. We started talking about "song worms." Those things that you should never even think of, or they will ruin your day. Off the top of my head: "Electric Avenue," "Don't Worry, Be Happy," anything by Tony Orlando, "Lighting Strikes," "Cheeky Girls Christmas" and so many, many more.

Later today I was updating some of my varied blogs, and I remembered how back on the first one under AOL Journals, they used to have a section for "Currently Listening To" to set the tone of what you were writing. I "may" pick that up and occasionally throw up a song that's on my mind. God knows I have eclectic tastes. Ask Drew about my getting him hooked on Siberian throat singers.



What's been playing in my head tonight? Liza Minnelli singing "Don't Smoke in Bed."
