Sofia Karlberg’s sultry cover of Beyonce’s “Crazy In Love” - better than the original, I’d say: [Sofia Karlberg - Crazy In Love (lyrics) - Fifty shades of grey trailer - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7Sx7emQdMk) ---

["Put the Blame on Mame."](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnBmbsDan5s)I watched _Gilda_ the other night. I defy you to get this out of your head, once you’ve heard it. Anyway, that’s the story that went around. ---

Girls’ Generation has been around for 11 years but their new song, “Lil’ Touch”, just released on Wednesday, is one of their best. I can’t get it out of my head: [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/SdzLl-XpJt0/maxresdefault.jpg "Girls' Generation-Oh!GG 소녀시대-Oh!GG '몰랐니 (Lil' Touch)' MV") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdzLl-XpJt0) ---

Mr. Blue Sky. It kicked off the other day when someone mentioned an ELO song. My brain started cycling through all the ELO songs I know and got stuck on this one. It is a favorite of a little boy who is a family friend, so there’s a happy association there. I don’t mind it too much, it’s a good song.

My current earworm is ‘Georgie Girl’. Ugh, make it stop. ---

Strauss’s _Also sprach Zarathustra_. There’s so much more good stuff to it than the famous opening fanfare (which, having seen a 4K restoration of _2001: A Space Odyssey_ this weekend, has been running through my mind): [Richard Strauss - Also sprach Zarathustra, Op. 30 - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFPwm0e_K98) ---

> [@carnut](#): > > Truckin’ This is often a fill-in earworm until something more evil comes along. I don’t mind it at all. It’s a great, catchy tune that I never grow tired of. It can occupy my mind any time it wants to. It’s got the ways and means. mmm ---

When we’re driving as a family, sometimes we’ll go around and each person chooses a song to play. I chose this one on Sunday so it’s been bouncing around in my head since. [Nowhere Again by Secret Machines](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MgDLVC2vdTs) ---

A bit ago got to the Ramones folder on the card in my car stereo. Lots of earworminess stuff there. But the winner of the group is _[Danny Says](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Aerah72IEI)_. The line “Watching _Get Smart_ on TV” particularly resonates. One of the oldie channel’s listings showed a _Get Smart_ marathon last weekend. I picked several to record. All came up infomercials. ☹ I want to watch _Get Smart_ on TV, dagnabit. ---
