Kris Kristofferson - ‘Help me make it through the night’, I loved that song, now it’s stuck in my head, about a week now. I am waiting for some stupid Christmas song to replace it. God, I hope it aint ‘Grandma got run over by a reindeer’! ---

Jake Thackray on the joys of women. It’s wordy, I tend to just adopt a make-believe tuba in order to accompany him: [Jake Thackray - "On Again! On Again!" from Innes Book of Records - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=leON-71pRns&list=RDZ3T8lgRe6FQ&index=15) ---

Yesterday, I had two lines of a song that I don’t really know nor like running through my head all day long: “Don’t go for second best, baby Put your love to the test.” I can’t even remember the title of the song. And, no, I’m not typically a Madonna fan. ---

This is a true earworm in that it’s occupying too much space in my head for how good it is, even though I do like it … [@chl03k](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLC17CBOf0Q) by Modern Baseball. I just realized that it sounds like it’s going to drop into electric rock but it never does and so could be annoying to people, but if you’re a fan of acoustic Dashboard Confessional you might like this. ---

Neil Diamond, “Solitary Man” Snuck into my brain about a half hour ago, for no apparent reason other than I like the song. > [@Bullitt](#): > > I’m sleeping and right in the middle of a good dream > And all at once I wake up from something that keeps knocking at my brain > Before I go insane I hold my pillow to my head > And spring up in my bed screaming out the words I dread > > I think I love you Ever listened to [Voice of the Beehive’s cover](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4QEA1xsjUcE) of this song? Absolutely rocks. ---

“Havana” by Camila Cabello. Can’t get the darned thing out of my head, much as I’d love to. Not that it’s a terrible song, but the mental repetition is getting quite annoying, and I can’t seem to shake it. ---

Yesterday, my wife was a watching a anime series called _Bleach_, and one character said, “Ichigo, where are you going to?” Since then, my head has been playing in a constant loop: Ichigo, where are you going to? Do you like the things that life is showing you? Where are you going to, Ichigo? I may need electroshock to get rid of this one. ---

“All Through The Night” by Cyndi Lauper I don't even know why I currently have this stuck in my head. Maybe it's used in a recent commercial? Fortunately I like the song, so I bought it and put it in my listening rotation. I did see Lauper’s episode of _Austin City Limits_ several months back and it was great! I’ve never seen her perform live in person, but I’ve seen several of her live performances on TV over the years and have always been impressed. ---
