> [@RobDog](#): > > I think you’re all secretly coming here to post your favourite songs. Well, that or you’re a bunch of sadists. 😉 Not me! My current earworm is the Genie song from Aladdin, except I replace the lyrics “All you gotta do is rub that lamp!” with “All ya gotta do is rub dat ass!” It's my wife's fault. Don’t ask. ---

“Zip a dee doo dah” with visual image from _Song Of The South_ of Uncle Remus and animated tweetybird on his shoulder. No idea why it popped up a few minutes ago, especially considering I haven’t seen that footage in 55 years. ---

I’ve gotten the song ‘Milo’ by Matt the Electrician stuck in my head. (I don’t think the version that the post talks about how he and his wife were having a baby and it was a boy. ( They thought.) And she loved the name Milo. And he hated that name and told her and he says, “That’s when I learned the hard way that you never get in an argument with a pregnant woman.”) So he writes the song. As an apology. And then after the last Daily Show, I've had Born to Run stuck in my head. They're battling it out. ---

Heard it while doing yard work & suddenly remembered a world where adults wore sport jackets, men had Dorothy Hamill hair cuts and drove Camaros, and kids got everywhere with 10 speeds. “You Love The Thunder” -Jackson Browne ---

I’ve been on a John Denver kick the last few days and have been listening to some of his albums on You Tube. So, though I haven’t listened to him today, I have _Ain’t It Good to Be Back Home Again_ going through my head right now. In the morning, it was _I’m Sorry._ ---
