More than a week ago I looked into the theme song for _It: Welcome to Derry_

I found that it was a song (that I’d never heard of) by a duo (that I’d never heard of) called Patience and Prudence. Looking for info on Patience and Prudence, I found them doing a cover of Tonight You Belong to Me

Which I remembered having been in a Steve Martin movie. I was thinking _The Man With Two Brains_, but it was _The Jerk_.

So for several days now I have had Tonight You Belong to Me stuck in my head off and on.
