I got the horse right here
The name is Paul Revere
And here's a guy that says that the weather's clear
Can do, can do, this guy says the horse can do
If he says the horse can do, can do, can do.
I'm pickin' Valentine, 'cause on the morning line
A guy has got him figured at five to nine
Has chance, has chance, this guy says the horse has chance
if he says the horse has chance, has chance, has chance
But look at Epitaph. he wins it by a half
According to this here in the Telegraph
"Big Threat" - "Big Threat"
This guy calls the horse "Big Threat"
If he calls the horse "Big Threat",
Big Threat, Big Threat.
And now, the semi-alternative radio station I listen to - The River - is playing some more ear worms.
Brick House by The Commodores
Can't Touch This by M.C. Hammer
We're Having A Party by Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes
What songs give you ear worms?

Happy Birthday - by, everyone, I think.
Now all of these songs are cacophonously competing in my brain.
Another One Bites the Dust by Queen
Respect-Aretha Franklin
Celebrate Good Times- Kool and the Gang
Do You Love Me?- I don't know who it's by but they play it in the movie Dirty Dancing (yes, that movie is one of my guilty pleasures)
Do You Love Me is the Contours. I love that movie, too.
All during the week before Christmas my main earworm was "Merry Christmas from the Family" by Robert Earl Keen. And there is a song that was used as a "love theme" or something on my soap that was playing so often both on the show and on Radio KHED that I finally googled it to find out who it was (Michael Broussard, "Hope for Me Yet").
Happy New Year!
Merry Christmas From the Family is a very funny song. I haven't heard it in a long time though.
The damn song from Chitty-Chitty Bang-Bang.
'Chitty chitty bang bang we love you!
Bang bang chitty chitty bang bang
our fine four fendered friend
bang bang chitty chitty bang bang
our fine four fendered friend.'
The Boy looooves this movie.
I am buying stock in migraine medicine.
I suppose I should consider myself lucky in that I have very limited sound retention. That means that I can't remember sound very well. I can remember some things- my parents voices, occasional lyrics from songs, the sound of my best friend saying my name. But it's very limited. Although I love concerts and the atmosphere, it's almost pointless because I can't remember what most of the songs sound like once I leave unless I listen to the songs again. If I'm listening to the song, I can remember watching them perform and what it was like.
My memories are like silent movies. It sucks most of the time, but on the bright side, no Ear Worms.
The song from the beginning of Sleeping Beauty (dd's new fav) when the villagers are coming to the castle for a celebration:
Hail to the king
Hail to the queen
Hail to the prin-cess A-roooor-a!
I wish I had a much cooler earworm...
