The anthem I sang on Christmas Eve, all 4 parts. It was a good one, but still! CJ ---

Currently, the outro from Bjork’s _Pagan Poetry_: “She loves him, she laaaaves him, she loves him, she laaaaaaarves him” … etc. ---

_No One Knows_ by **Queens of the Stone Age**. Not only is the song stuck in my head, but I can’t seem to stop repeating it on my CD player. ---

I keep alternating between humming “Early One Morning” and having Rainbow’s “Dreamchaser (Bring on the Night)” buzzing through my head. Can’t figure out why. ---

Unfortunately, someone just planted “I think we’re alone know, they’re doesn’t seem to be anyone around…” as sung by teen mall queen Tiffany. Vengeance will be mine. If my head doesn’t explode first. ---

We are currently showing **Chicago** at the theater where I work, and I _can’t_ get the various songs out of my head. They’re not bad or anything, but they’re _haunting me!_. I guess 'cause we’re so busy and I’m so very tired and ragged, but it won’t stop! I dream about **All That Jazz** and **Mr. Cellophane**. …What the heck does it mean to ‘rouge my knees’ anyway? Are we talking blusher? ---

There’s some neural paths in my noggin that just won’t let go of _Demons and Wizards_’ “Tear Down the Walls.” _Blind Guardian_’s “Precious Jerusalem” is just a couple neurons next door to it, and tends to run in fugue. ---

The Velvet Underground - I’m Waiting for the Man Since Christmas, I tells ya! (I got the box set “Peel Slowly and See”). I think it’s something about the pounding piano that sticks it in there. Here’s to having songs you actually enjoy in your head! ---

Great! , now that "Jenny From the Block has left my head, a new one is in it’s place. I dont even know the name of this song and I only know the chorus.

Ha. You are all very lucky people, not having been exposed to the Transylvanian horror that is [“Cheeky Song (Touch My Bum)” by the Cheeky Girls](http://www.cheeky-girls.com/song.html). Once that’s in your head you need to break out the trephining kit.
