But I am so happy I read it anyway - 'earworm' is my new favourite word :) Not sure that 'Vienna' is the kind of song I want stuck in my brain just before I want to go off to sleep (it's midnight here - eep!), but at least I might get to have interesting, if weird, dreams with a Billy Joel soundtrack.<br /><br />You are seriously one of the best bloggers out there, lady.

He grew into such a self-absorbed, arrogant, contemtuous knob in recent years (Too harsh? I seem to have mispalced my copy of The Golden Rule, huh? LOL!), that I'd forgotten what a musical genius he is. Thanks for the refresher course! <br /><br />As for me, among my usual earworms are Harry Nillson's "[Put the] Lime In the Coconut" and "Elvira." (Oakridge Boys? I'm not sure.)

I've been in plays where there is singing and I've been asked to lip sync because my singing throws everyone off.

Not a bad earworm to have. Good luck with analyzing and applying the lyrics in your own life. I hear you!
