Yesterday I heard an event playing “Me & Julio Down By The Schoolyard”, presumably for the “Queen of Corona” line. Which was both clever and also stretching things a bit. ---

Driving home through NJ yesterday during the eclipse, I heard “Total Eclipse of the Heart” 6 times on the radio, “Black Hole Sun” and “Blinded by the Light” 4 times each, “I Wear My Sunglasses at Night” 3 times, and “Dark Side of the Moon,” “You’re So Vain,” “Moonshadow,” and “Invisible Sun” only once. But it all added to the semi-eclipse experience. ---
