<P>funny thing about detritus's earworm thread is that you sing so many songs but then you can't remember them except for your favourites...its like the songs stay in your mind for years and then perhaps when you least expect it you start singing some songs that meant something to you once perhaps years ago...strange how the mind works perhaps. the way these songs come back and you sing along..</P> <P>brown sugar...by the rolling stones... about the evil drug heroin....</P> <P>something by the sex pistols...johnny rotten grew up on six acres or andover estate locally...</P> <P>you cant always get what you want - the rolling stones...</P> <P>paper back writer by the beatles...</P> <P>the bbc one show theme tune...  </P> <P>funny how songs just pop into your head as you are walking down the street and you start remembering from the past... </P>

<P>@andy, shame is the appropriate feeling...</P> <P>I'm musicless today, but had 'Glory Days' by The Boss yesterday while making my first coffee.</P>

miss annie

<p>'La, la, lala, there's nothing like Australia...' from the tlevision advertisement. Especially annoying as I have no desire to visit the colony.</p>

vetski

<P>I've just got Eddy Grant's 'Gimme Hope, Jo'anna' - probably because I've just finished writing a lengthy whinging e-mail to Haringey Lib Dems about the Jamaica Village aggravation! </P> <P>@miss annie, loving your use of 'colony' (and hiding behind the sofa to avoid flying boomerangs from irritated Aussies...)</P>

This is probably due to the thread called Take Me To The Nail Bar but I've got the Talking Heads version of <a href="">'Take Me To The River</a>' going round and round my head. <div><br></div><div>Need to watch Stop Making Sense again too, so good! </div>

Oh - I like that too, and I didn't know it yet. This thread is really growing on me!<div><br></div><div>As for me, I have recently been haunted by The Universal by Blur. It's strange because I never really liked Blur or britpop, and slightly painful because of that Alex James guy playing his bass inside my skull.</div>

Which Mozart and Beethoven piano sonatas do you like, ChrisN4?

chrisn4

<P>checkski - you have caught me out - in answer to your question - i dont know - i flick on radio3 and listen to the  music... i am mildly annoyed that i cant name what you are asking, to what i have listened to on radio3...thats good... </P> <P>perhaps you or others  can name some of your favourites ?  </P>

checkski

<P>Beethoven: the Pathethique in C minor is one that everyone should know.</P> <P>Mozart: lots of people will have played the C major, as children: C-EGB-CDC, F-EGED(trill)C, etc.</P>
