Nickelback "You Remind Me". I saw them on CD-UK on Saturday and was very impressed. It made me yearn to be 14 and living out in the Mid West somewhere.

Inglesfield needs psychiatric treatment here: attitudes like that are why this country is in the mess that it is.

Could you explain further Robin?

― David Inglesfield, Monday, 4 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I've been listening to music nearly all day. When I went to the supermarket I wasn't, and the song on my mind was "Last Thing On My Mind" by Steps, aptly.

― Tom, Monday, 4 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

This morning it was New Order's "Temptation".

― Mitch Lastnamewithheld, Monday, 4 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

"Miyako Hideaway"? Why that one?

Currently nothing. I am listening to the Aesop Rock album, mind you. It's good.

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 4 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Inglesfield: I was thinking of people who live out pathetic rockboy fantasies rather than getting to grips with their lives.

― Robin Carmody, Monday, 4 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Robin's most recent post has put "Shiny Happy People" into my head.

I've had the opening theme to the 60's TV show "Combat" stuck in my head since the late 90's.

― Pump Wellington, Monday, 4 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I now have the "Gloria" of Frank Martin's Mass For Double Choir in my head. I love mp3s!

― Dan Perry, Monday, 4 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Dan: is the "Shiny Happy People" thing a compliment or the opposite?

(can't stand that song, FWIW)

― Robin Carmody, Monday, 4 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

for the first time in ages, it's "relax" by frankie goes to hollywood. it is a mighty mighty entity and my head is bowed.

― dave k, Monday, 4 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I have "Check Yourself Hard" by The All-Purpose Voltage Heroes on my head. It is a song that I recommend anybody listen to. I found it at www.mp3.com/voltageheroes. It has a really funny minimal, commercial, mocking NO NAME brand sound--written by my friend Dan Poole and his group.

Coming in to LA for Arthurs M

― anthony, Monday, 4 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

For my what? I love that song...you mean the Arlo Guthrie one, right?

I've got "Sheila" by Tommy Roe in my head. And 52nd Street's "Cool as Ice" thanks to Dr. C's mixtape. I had an "oh, it's THAT song" moment when I heard it. That song was everywhere in early 80s NYC, how could I forget it?

― Arthur, Monday, 4 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

David Bowie's "Be My Wife". Does anyone else like that song as much as I do?

― Lindsey B, Tuesday, 5 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Appropriately enough, "Can't Get You Out of My Head".

― Dan I., Tuesday, 5 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I do! Because sometimes I get so lonely...

― Arthur, Tuesday, 5 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

For the last several hours, Michael Daddino's name to the tune of Wagner's "Ride of the Valkiries" on endless loop. I WISH I were only kidding.

MIKE-ul da-DEEEEN-oh, MIKE-ul da DEEEEN-oh...

― Colin Meeder, Tuesday, 5 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

That's because he is pretty godlike and all. :-)

"Be My Wife" = wonderful. Not quite as good as the live version of "Breaking Glass" on Stage, though.

Brandy - "What About Us"

This song is okay, but it drives me crazy when I can't get a song out of my head like this. It's hardly ever anything I actually like.

Come back "Teenage Dirtbag", all is forgiven.

HOLY SHIT I was going to start this very thread this very morning when I had a spare moment!! But decided instead to look for one that already existed. Now I don't even have to do that...

Anyways, it's never an entire SONG clogging up your thoughts, is it? Just 9-second segments, such as:

"Lite-Brite, making things with li-i-ight/What a sight, making things with Lite-Brite!" (I am so pathetically happy that this commercial exists on Youtube)

I've had "By The Sea" from Sweeney Todd stuck in my head for days.
Today it finally quit and was promptly replaced by, of all things, Carla Bley Band's "Jesus Maria And Other Spanish Strains". Rather random fragments from that pops in, occasionally relieved by, err, more or less the same stuff from Charlie Haden's Liberation Music Orchestra.
