Thanks a lot, Quad City DJs. “Come on 'n Ride It” (the Train) was the last song I heard before I arrived at work this morning and now it’s stuck in my head. What song is giving you the crazies right now? Be honest. We won’t pile up on you if you admit you were listening to Englebert Humperdinck or Captain and Tennille. You can’t see it, but my fingers are crossed. 😃 ---

“Volunteers” - Jefferson Airplane. No idea why, but hey - in my line of work, I’m just glad it’s not anything from “High School Musical”. ---

_My friends Morris and Max, They’re not like Gimbels or Saks. ‘Business is awful,’ you’ll hear them both squeal– Each of them bought a new automobile! If you ask them for money, It’s harder than pulling out tacks Max says, ‘go and see Morris,’ and Morris says ‘go and see Max!’_ ---

That’s funny, I’ve been wanting to start this very thread for a couple of years now. I never got around to it. Earlier today (when I was thinking of starting this thread!), it was an instrumental bit from Tommy – either Sparks or Underture. And now it’s in my head again. When I first saw the thread title, it was Matthew Broderick singing I Want to Be a Producer. ---

“A Little Rain” by Tom Waits, from Bone Machine. _She was 15 years old, and she’d never seen the ocean, She climbed in a van with a vagabond, And the last thing she said was, “I love you, Mom…” And a little rain never hurt no one…_ ---

Open up the vaults. Open up the Vaults. We’ve got to find the key. The nights have been growing darker, so much darker now than sin (darker than sin). We’ll open the vaults of heaven. The answer is there within. The Vaults of Heaven, from “Whistle Down the Wind.” ---

Paul Simon’s **Obvious Child**. Someone posted a thread about that song weeks ago. Hadn’t heard it in quite a while, so I got out his Live in Central Park album & listened to the whole 2-disc set. “Obvious Child” kicks off the concert with fabulous percussion. That song, and especially the percussion has been going through my head ever since…and I am talking WEEKS now. It is seriously starting to drive me crazy. Which is a shame, because I love the song. ---
