Does this happen to anyone else? Where you get a song that you cannot stand, absolutely have no chance of owning, but have heard so much on the radio that it gets stuck in your head anyway? Do you have one now? Is it gnawing at the very tissue of your brain, threatening all that you hold dear as musical appreciation goes, making you fear that if you cannot extract it from your head soon, it will cause you to lose interest in all the much better music that you have cherished for so long and turn into a fan of, I don't know, N*Kids and the Funky Posse? Because I have such a song in my head now, friends, and it threatens me. I have tried to shake it all afternoon and evening, but to no avail. And I am slowly starting to go mad. I am hoping that the bourbon will help.

The song, for the record, is Lee Greenwood - Proud to be an American.

Help me.

Go.

I occasionally wake up with Billy Joel's "I Go To Extremes" stuck in my head.


I wish for death. It never comes.

I embrace horrible pop songs. I let them play lovingly in my brain for as long as they wish to. For example, I really like that new Gwen Stefani single even though I have no idea what it's called ("Whatcha Gonna Do"?!). In fact, I seriously considered purchasing the CD single at Tower Records last night. Instead, I bought the latest album by Ghost along with a James Chance boxset and something by the Boredoms, thus narrowly avoidng any loss of indie cred, which I lost anyway by shopping at Tower Records in the first place.

Ah, Senor Weissenberger, how you underestimate me. Not only me, and my determination to rid this song from my head, but also the power of Senor Greenwood, no? I assure you I have read that thread, and believe it to would work but if not for my un-knowledge of the mystical Tina Turner song you reference! Perhaps I download, and play repeatedly, with hopes of taking bad patriotism out.

I am, however, well on my way to a pint of bourbon now, and the song she is fading. But I fear the cheesy breads of TMH has supplanted it with Seal now! Oh, the humanity.

Its funny that this post should come up, the past day or two I havent been able to get this fucking ridiculous song out of my head from some video my friend sent me and said it was pretty funny. Watch it and tell me how you like it, http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/schfiftyfive.php

Lately, there's been these commercials playing 'Do you really want to hurt me?' promoting Canadian beer, promoting hockey. 'Please come back'.

No funny?
