Okay, right now! I wanna see a show of hands. Who here wakes up many mornings with a song already playing in their head? Come on, I wanna see everybody here that has that happen to them frequently or occasionally to speak up now. I've had this all my life and I can't find many others who do. Come on, speak up!

Yea! I'm not the only cuckoo here!

It happens to me all the time and rarely with a great song. It's usually some dang thing I haven't heard in a long time and wish I hadn't. And then I can't get rid of it for hours. It's like having a television with an extra "The Theme Song From Gilligan's Island Channel" that's on in the background and you can't turn off. Then tomorrow it will be some other hell.

I suppose that this could be a V Day song, but it's just a song that I woke up with in my head.

I sure wouldn't say that she had a great voice, but she did fit our moods and generation. Today she would be a total flop, never mind getting on American Idol.



Some more Kris Kristofferson songs that were hits around that same time.





and I think Sunday Morning Coming Down has already been posted.

What's worse is when you can only remember one line of the song and it keeps repeating over and over.

Oh, you're not kidding! My worst fear is that some morning soon I'll roll out of bed singing the one line of Cee Lo Green's song I can remember. My wife will divorce me instantly.

Olivier Sachs wrote a book about that:

And I have it too; especially with sentimental songs about rainbows and dreams

You Americans will never cease to amaze me. Just when I thought I had you all figured out...

Edit: does anyone else find the asterisks in the title rather silly? I mean, what do they think we're going to do when we hear the song, just stop our ears and shout "da da da I can't hear you!"?
