For the last three days: “Red and Black” - from Les Miserables.
*It is time for us all to decide who we are…
Do we fight for the right to a night at the opera now?
Have you asked of yourselves what’s the price you might pay?
Is it simply a game for rich young boys to play?
The color of the world
Is changing day by day…
Red, the blood of angry men
Black, the dark of ages past,
Red, a world about to dawn,
Black, the night that ends at last!*
I want to know…what you’re thinking. Tell me what’s on your mind. I want to know what you’re feeling…there are some things you can’t hide.
A week of Rick Astley. A FUCKING WEEK!!!
Never gonna give you up. Never gonna let you down. Never gonna turn around and desert you!..
Tears For Fears - Head Over Heals.
I’m hoping something better comes along soon.
Spring Cleaning (link to video) from and episode of Rocko’s Modern Life.
Changes - Yes
For a week, if I’m not actively listening to some other music.
I woke up with Anger Cage - by Course of Nature playing over and over in my brain. Matter of fact, it’s been on repeat for most of the morning. It wasn’t so bad. Now it’s been replaced by Rick Astley. Thanks. Thanks a lot.
Herman’s Hermits – Henry the Eighth (I am)
Damn, British invasion…
Joseph’s Coat from Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, but not the whole song, just:
“Joseph’s mother she was quite my favorite wife
I never really loved another all my life
And Joseph was
My joy because
He reminded me of her”
ARRRRGGGH!!

Interpol, “No I in Threesome”

Rrrrrrrrggggh.

I married my dream girl,
I married my dream girl,
but she didn’t tell me her credit was bad.
So now instead of living in a pleasant suburb,
We’re living in the basement of her mom and dad.
Make it stop. Please make it stop.
Anything for Love by Meatloaf (which is better than what was there this morning.)
You’ve had a bad day, the camera don’t lie…
My recurring ear worm is “King Tut” by Steve Martin.
It runs through my mind in the quiet parts of the day… for weeks at a time sometimes.
I mean, it’s catchy and funny and everything, but this is no way to go through life.
Fortunately this hasn’t been happening recently, though. Maybe I have it licked.
Oops. Dammit.
I’ll call before I come
I won’t just pop over, out the blue
I hope that you do too
I’ll call before I come
I won’t just won’t pop up over, out the blue
No after you
By Outkast. But the way they sing it is so so much more catchy than I could ever type it.
