> [@Snowboarder\_Bo](#): > > Not bad! I also like mixing up different genres to see what bubbles up; most times it’s pretty bland but sometimes (like with Daryl and Chromeo) it’s something new and brilliant. IMO the 1 example of brilliance usually is worth the vast number of clunkers you have to put up with to find it (much of life is that way, eh). > > I’ll check out CMT tonight. Thanks for the suggestion! One more thing, if you get Palladia (a cable channel), check out the Hard Rock Calling concerts. For example last night they had the [2010](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_Rock_Calling#Hard_Rock_Calling_2010) one on. In the little while that I had it on, I saw Stevie Wonder, Pearl Jam, Jamirquoi (found out that’s the band, the singer is Jay Kay), and CSN. It’s basically the London version of Bonnaroo\*. Actually, if you get Palladia, there’s just usually good music on anyways. \*When Bonnaroo is ongoing, they stream two of the stages live, it’s worth checking out. ---

For some stupid reason it’s _Malibu Nights_ by Tenacious D. It has the most retarded lyrics. I came downstairs this morning and “it’s time for my breakfast; it’s time for some cheese” popped into my head and I can’t get rid of it now. It’s especially annoying because the lyrics are so stupid. ---

“Giving it up for your love” Delbert McClinton. Played on KXT this morning AND WILL NOT GO AWAY. And I know none of the words but the title. ---

> [@MrDibble](#): > > The Sundays are a perfectly cromulent earworm, I envy you (well, I don’t, actually, I listen to that album regularly enough as it is) Agreed. Love that album and haven’t listened to it (in my head or otherwise) in years…so, thanks! My latest earworm is this song I’d never heard of until I saw this dance video - check it even if you’re not a West Coast Swing (/John Lindo) fanatic: [http://youtu.be/KNhLeL0FaYo](http://youtu.be/KNhLeL0FaYo) Keep waking up to this in my head day after day and still don’t have a problem with it. ---

for you old people out there, here’s the one that I’ve had in my head for over a week. When I’m slow on the draw, and I need somethin’ to chaw; I hanker for a hunk of cheese! When my 10 gallon hat is feelin’ 5 gallons flat… When my get up & go, has gone up & went… When I’m dancin’ a ho down, and my boot kinda slow down… [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/4xRv9ZQOCPo/hqdefault.jpg "I Hanker for a Hunka Cheese") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xRv9ZQOCPo) ---

“Trash Day” by Weird Al. I hoped that listening to “Hot in Herre” by Nelly might help. Now I just hate Nelly even more than I did before, but with reason. ---

My brain hates me and proves it by tormenting me with earworms on a regular basis, at least one a day and often more. So many more. Even songs you like pale after you’ve had them on a seemingly endless loop in your head for a couple of hours or more. The worst one recently was last week when, off and on for a couple of torturous days, my Evil Brain harped at me to take it to Funky Town. The horror, the horror… ---

I have two at present: “Dominique”, by the Singing Nun, and “Baby Snakes”, by Frank Zappa. Sigh. ---
