What Song is Looping in Your Mind Right Now?
I just got back from the liquor store, and the guy behind me inspired me to be possessed by "Don't Stand So Close to Me."

Elvis Costello - They're using it in an ad for a new movie which I see on TV a few times a day.

Great song

Who knows who wrote it ? ( without Googling )

12. I LOVE THAT SONG! I think Outkast are so great.
What a song that is! It gets into your head and stays there, in a good way.

Didja see the story on them in Atlanta's Creative Loafing this week?

15. Paris-the devil made me do it
I was reading Tinoire's post and have the song stuck in my head.

"Beware the beast man, he kills for sport or lust or greed,
yea, he will murder his brother to posess his brothers land,
shun him, for he is the harbinger of death".

--I need to play some python too!
maybe "I like chinese"

24. Outside Of A Small Circle Of Friends. By Phil Ochs.
Someone started a Simon & Garfunkel thread and I started thinking of other meaningful music from the '60 when Phil Ochs poped into my head and it's been ther all morning. I believe I could have done a lot worse.



By Phil Ochs


C D C D
Look outside the window, there's a woman being grabbed
C Em F G
They've dragged her to the bushes and now she's being stabbed
E Am
Maybe we should call the cops and try to stop the pain
F Am Dm G
But Monopoly is so much fun, I'd hate to blow the game
C Am Eb
And I'm sure it wouldn't interest anybody
Cm F
Outside of a small circle of friends.

Riding down the highway, yes, my back is getting stiff
Thirteen cars are piled up, they're hanging on a cliff.
Maybe we should pull them back with our towing chain
But we gotta move and we might get sued and it looks like it's gonna rain
And I'm sure it wouldn't interest anybody
Outside of a small circle of friends.

Sweating in the ghetto with the (colored/Panthers) and the poor
The rats have joined the babies who are sleeping on the floor
Now wouldn't it be a riot if they really blew their tops?
But they got too much already and besides we got the cops
And I'm sure it wouldn't interest anybody
Outside of a small circle of friends.

Oh there's a dirty paper using sex to make a sale
The Supreme Court was so upset, they sent him off to jail.
Maybe we should help the fiend and take away his fine.
But we're busy reading Playboy and the Sunday New York Times
And I'm sure it wouldn't interest anybody
Outside of a small circle of friends

Smoking marihuana is more fun than drinking beer,
But a friend of ours was captured and they gave him thirty years
Maybe we should raise our voices, ask somebody why
But demonstrations are a drag, besides we're much too high
And I'm sure it wouldn't interest anybody
Outside of a small circle of friends

Oh look outside the window, there's a woman being grabbed
They've dragged her to the bushes and now she's being stabbed
Maybe we should call the cops and try to stop the pain
But Monopoly is so much fun, I'd hate to blow the game
And I'm sure it wouldn't interest anybody
Outside of a small circle of friends

30. Thanks to talking to Lou via IM last night:
I got the horse right here
His name is Paul Revere
And this guy who says
if the weather is clear
Can do...can do...
This guy says the horse can do.
If he says the horse can do...
can do...can do.

31. "A Nakht in Gan Eden"
I got this book on klezmer cheap cheap (as part of a 6 books/$10 deal), and I've been programming interesting tunes into my synthesizer so I can work on them later (and hear them properly, instead of the fractured, pale way they sound when I try to sight-read them). "A Nakht in Gan Eden" is this beautiful little piece. I think I'm going to specify its use in my screenplay. :)

35. "mei" by Echolyn
A fairly obscure prog-rock-ish band that I saw a while back. Bought the album (one song, very long) at their show and played it to death over the summer. No idea why it's running through my head, but there it is.

"The Man in Black"

I've heard it several times on the radio over the past week, though it has always been one of my favorite songs. The lyrics are wonderful.
