I’m in the 60s folder on my car stereo’s memory card. Currently getting a few Monkees songs. I’ve been getting _Pleasant Valley Sunday_ running thru here and there and thinking of Peter Tork. Could be worse. ---

Autumn Almanac by the Kinks - just heard it in Morrison’s Supermarket (!) Oh, and I watched something about the Byrds on TV last night, so now I’m stuck with Eight Miles High and Chestnut Mare. I mean, they’re all great, I’m fine with it. Three earworms in two ears - I need more ears. j ---

Supertramp’s “Give a Little Bit” has been on more or less constant repeat in my head for about 5 days now. I love the song, but it’s getting old. ---

Don McLean’s “Everybody Loves Me Baby”. Which is a totally awesome song that deserves to be better known. “Angels guide my every tread My enemies are sick or dead But all the victories I’ve led Haven’t brought you to my bed” ---

Sadly, my earworm is the theme song from Mr. Belvedere. I know how/when. Husband was repeatedly whistling a different song, poorly, that didn’t sound anything like the Mr. Belvedere theme song. I asked him to quit whistling the theme song, and he said he didn’t think he was, so we looked it up on youtube and now it is stuck in my head. Going on four days ☹ ---

Dog Days are Over by Florence and the Machine. I made a video for a work event and, since the event is over, we put it up on social today. I don’t usually admire my own work like this, but I’ve watched it a whole bunch of times. Partly, it’s just because I love the song. But it’s the video, too. It came together really well. Although over the course of writing this post, now “On My Way” by Phil Collins is in my head because that’s what I used for one of my previous videos and I was thinking about how I’ve only watched that one through since finishing it enough times to make sure it exported/loaded/posted/etc correctly and I don’t know if it’s because the video wasn’t as good or the song wasn’t. ---

For me, earworms can be a multi-day thing. Since almost the weekend, it’s been _Gimme Shelter_. ---
