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)

Date: 2004-06-23 07:32 pm (UTC)My wife and I have a cure for a stuck song. The song Toy Cows in Africa, http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&q=toy+cows+in+africa , seems to drive out a stuck song but not be sticky itself. At least this works for us, YMMV.
By the way, Hi. I'm relatively new to live journal. In following links to friends of friends I found your journal and your sense of humor seems to jell with mine so I figured I drop in a bit of randomness occasionally.

(then again, lower down is a request to, effectively, have _me_ yodeling)
Re: Full text
Date: 2004-06-23 07:38 pm (UTC)(Okay, the yodeling is a bit important too. And memorable. Yes. Definitely memorable.)
(Don't worry about the spelling, it's just onomatopoeia. Highly subjective.)

Date: 2004-06-23 08:41 pm (UTC)(My brain is also filled with musicals. And religious songs. And other random chorus songs. They escape occasionally. ((The songs, not the chorus.)) And somehow, don't frighten the people I'm around. I think that says something about those people. Maybe. ^_^)

Yay! You think so too! *amused bouncing*)
I'm in an exceedingly silly and fidgety mood. You tend to promote such moods. This is a good thing.

Date: 2004-06-23 11:06 pm (UTC)I continually have music running through my head. One reason for liking Sarah McLachlan as I do is that her music is able to drive most of the rest out of my brain...
Re: For your edification
Date: 2004-06-23 11:07 pm (UTC)I did like the no reason thread. I'm more of an NT but that kind of thing tickles the senses every once in awhile.
Re: Why Songs get stuck
Date: 2004-06-23 11:29 pm (UTC)No idea where I originally found the link, but it was most likely on LJ somewhere. Disregarding the irrelevant origins, it's quite interesting. I'm sure marketers have studied the article in great detail, if not used those same principles for years. :P at them
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

Date: 2004-06-23 11:29 pm (UTC)I have pretty strong NT traits (http://www.livejournal.com/users/bridgetester/21333.html), myself, which is mixed with NF (http://www.livejournal.com/users/bridgetester/6389.html) in a lot of ways.
Competency and Knowledge are Good Things. They must also be balanced by Compassion.

Excellent! That's a very good talent to have, I think. ;)
