I've had Sleeper's "Inbetweener" stuck in my head for a couple of days. No idea why, I haven't heard it for ages.*
Might be something to do with Louise Wener I guess.
Yesterday while cycling back along the Welsh coast in a bracing breeze, at about the 30-mile mark, I started hearing the hymn How Great Thou Art. No idea where that came from, unless I was planning my own funeral.
"Some Guys Have All The Luck" by Rod Stewart has been stuck in my head since I woke up this morning.
:sick2:
Even "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy" would be an improvement over that. Sheesh. I haven't heard that song in 25 years at least, so no telling what dark mental cellar it came from.
Did it help?I've had Strawbs' New World in my head for about a month. It made me buy a Mellotron.
I used to get a lot of grief for liking Rod Stewart. But, honestly, before he decided to get into disco to make money he was a great blues singer. Sample:
Did it help?
Was? Did he die?He was a great R&B singer.
I think he became an easy listening singer.Was? Did he die?
Was? Did he die?
Same thing as dying, right?I think he became an easy listening singer.
Bang up the lot of them! The ones that created the ad. should be locked in a room with it playing 24 hours a day.
Allegedly How Great Thou Art was adapted from a Russian Orthodox prayer or incantation by an American missionary in Ukraine in the early 1930s. I tend to find this a little hard to believe, because the Ukraine Soviet Socialist Republic was not a welcoming place to be for Ukrainians at that time, let alone American missionaries. I realise this is something of a niche obsession, but if anyone can shed further light on the matter, I'd be grateful.Just now I had a look at this page and noticed the mention of the hymn How Great Thou Art, and that very hymn started playing on t'wireless.
This is rather weird because I'd normally knock it off before the Sunday service comes on, and had only switched it on at all to listen to news about Chuck Berry's death.
