I know we keep the TA on the 3 songs we are listening to up in front  but today I have had a song by Indigo Girls going around and around in my head.  Worse still when that happens I end up singing along.  Unfortunately, I am a bit deaf and tend to be a bit loud - poor neighbours - and the kids shut the door so they couldn't hear me.

It became so serious that I put the sound track of JC Superstar on to change what I was hearing but that didn't work so now I am hear listening to Indigo Girls and giving in to my head.

This happened once on the train and I realised too late that I was singing along out loud - I was very embarrassed.  Sydney people don't cope with that sort of behaviour. 

The song is kid fears.  Does this happen to you?  What is the song you are hearing in your head? 

OH UM, yes I do! Its driving me crazy as has been there forabout two days now! Its a song called Boo Hoo by a small band called HIs Girl Friday...its really catchy!!

I get one very strange song that pops into my head when I am stressed about things - its the childs hymn that goes 'he's got the whole world in his hands he's got the (etc etc)'

It just pops in when I am racing about trying to do things, its kind of like my stress anthem. I think because it just goes round and round lyrically and musically its like a merry-go-round and keeps me going! Either that or I am just a loop-nut

Whatever was that Kate Bush song about "running up that hill"  it had an odd riff in it that I keep hearing as I am dashing around.

It's taking so long for my computer to bring up each page! I've been tapping my fingers on my desk in front of my keyboard. "William Tell Overture" - if it was a piano keyboard in front of my desk i think I could play the whole thing by now. It'll take me another 10 minutes to do an online scream, now.

Oh, UM, It'll make you cry...I'm thinking again of Chris Williamson's Lullabye (I don't know why there is an 'e' on the end of the word - that's how it is on the CDs I have) I'll go ahead and try to quote it:

"Like a ship in the harbour

Like a mother and child

Like a light in the darkness

I'll hold you a while.

We'll rock on the water

I'll cradle you deep

And hold you while angels

Sing you to sleep."

She had the whole audience singing it a couple times thought. It is so beautiful it chokes me up.

& now, thanks to Zorro, I also have "Row row row your boat...." going one and on and on and on and on....Thank you SO MUCH Zorro!
