What's your current earworm?

I listened to the album these two songs are on Thursday evening and they've been rattling around my brain ever since. I used to own the album but haven't replaced it with a CD or a digital copy so I hadn't heard it in years if not decades. It used to be a favorite of mine. It appears to still be one that I love. I'll be considering it the next time I purchase music.


 

I've had two songs bouncing around my brain this morning and while walking the dogs this morning I was able to identify the similar sound that's in both in a few places. The first I heard a few days ago and it moved from being a song that I love to being a favorite (my highest rating for a song.) I've been hearing this song on and off for years but it recently touched me in a way it hadn't before.


The second is a very obscure song that isn't a cover of John Coltrane's cover of My Favorite Things or of the original song. However it is another favorite song of mine.

 
A blast from the past played in my rotation this week. Interestingly enough I identified some elements of the song that reminded me of one of my current favorite groups, The New Pornographers. I commented on that in a Facebook group for fans of TNP and there have been some others who commented that they'd made that connection before as well. Anyway the song is going through my head pleasantly right now.

 
Few months ago, I posted this gritty do-wop ditty from the great 1957 musical year in the "What Are You Listening To" thread and for the past five days have been singing it almost constantly including the falsetto. In fact, I started to get into it yesterday, absentmindedly, in the grocery store and in church. o_O

If my wife were here, she'd prolly be up on murder charges.

I haven't figured out how to copy and paste the actual video but here is the link.
Pink Floyd /On the Turning Away. The video is done in Claymation and the music is outstanding.
Of course you may need to like Pink Floyd.
