OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

Moonlight becomes you, it goes with your hair.  You certainly know the right things to wear.

These are really baffling lyrics.  "Moonlight becomes you" can have at least two meanings.  One of which is that moonlight magically turns into the person being sung to.  I don't think that is possible.  It goes with your hair.  I don't have a clue what that means.  When your hair comes moonlight leaves?  It would be unflattering to say that your hair looks good in the dark.

I frequently have a particular live version of the Avett Brothers song "Laundry Room" bouncing around in my head. Considering that anytime I've heard them play it live, I get chills down my spine, I'm ok with this.

Funny thing is -- that tends to be the verse that floats around in my head. You too?

I woke up this morning with "set an open course for the Virgin Sea" (fucking Slackbox). I checked, and that is actually the line. But it doesn't seem to have any meaning in the context of seafaring.

It might not have a meaning in seafaring, but it is damn poetic.  It evokes the image of the Enterprise at the introduction of "Star Trek".

I don't care whether Harry Chapin was a nice guy, I just want fucking "Cat's in the Cradle" to get out the fuck of my head in the morning. Two days running.

Oh, great, today it's "Rock On" by David Essex. There's a time and place for this one, but 7am and bed are not it.

Three days: The theme to "One Day at a Time." I've nearly become inured to it, but then the visuals come. I need more benzodiazepines.

The "One Day at a Time" is really vicious, though -- it frankly attacks other earworms to try to break through.

Oh, G-d, not "One Tin Soldier." Where does this stuff come from?
