Jun. 23rd, 2004 01:41 pmI get _strange_ songs in my head, sometimes.
Right now, it's "The Lonely Goatherd", _Sound of Music_.
Which I haven't seen in years and years. What the hell, brain?!
(yes, my brain is filled with musicals. And religious folk songs. Hey, I was in the folk group at a roman catholic church for years and years and years until I realized that that was _not_ my religion. The folk group part was fun, though. Other songs, too, but those two types are more strange than most)

Hmm... I either have music running through my head, or I don't. I can turn it on when I think about it, but it's awfully difficult to turn it back off again.
Perhaps someone should make a collection of the "fix the brainsticking" songs. *muses* So far, it's been Sarah McLachlan and that Toy Cows in Africa (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&q=toy+cows+in+africa) song
