“[Caballo Negro](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZyK-LQbG-k)”, a cool mambo by Perez Prado and His Orchestra, which was used in some pivotal scenes in Alejandro Jodorowski’s film “Santa Sangre”. I love the song, and it was cool to have it playing in my head for about a day, but it’s been going on for over 48 hours now. It’s driving me nuts! ---

I think it’s finally out of my head, but for the past month I’ve had [_Daddy Fat Sax_](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDAx-lID6YA) and [_Shutterbugg_](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWsvkW6rKkQ) by Big Boi in my head. It didn’t help that I listened to those two songs back to back a hundred times. ---

Reading about Debbie Gibson and Tiffany in that sci-fi movie brought up “Only In My Dreams”. I went to Grooveshark to listen. I’ve been ‘listening’ in my head ever since. Prior to that, “Everybody (Rock Your Body)” by Backstreet Boys. Backstreet’s back, ALL RIGHT!!! ---
