I hadn’t noticed until you asked, but it seems to be “Lady Writer” by Dire Straits. Don’t ask me why. I do not think I have actually heard the song for years and years. ---

This instant I don’t really have one, but… I’ve spent pretty much the entire summer as a super in the Cincinnati Opera’s productions of _Die Meistersinger_, _Otello_, and _La Boheme_. At various points, I’ve had little melodies from the first two rolling around my head all night–Beckmesser’s serenade in the second act of _DM_, as well as the whole madness of the riot that follows, and the opening (Una vela! Una vela!) of _Otello_. At one point I decided I needed to listen to Die Zauberflote for some reason, and wound up with “Vogelfanger ich bin ja” banging around my head all night. (We’re rehearsing Boheme now, but for some reason it’s not sticking with me the same way.) So, yeah. At any given moment, lately, it’s going to be opera. ---

I had to dissect The Beach Boy’s “Pet Sounds” album for my music appreciation class and I’ve had “Wouldn’t It Be Nice” stuck in my head for days. I have recently found a love for the Beach Boys. ---
