I had this song in my head all day, from when I woke up until about 5 minutes ago. Everyone gets a song in their head once in a while I guess, but this one wouldn't go back to where ever it came from. I just kept humming it all day long, not knowing how it got there.

And that part is more disturbing than the fact that I must have hummed it like 450 times today: I didn't hear on the radio in the car, it wasn't in a movie I watched the night before, it wasn't playing on the clock radio when my alarm went off, nothing. As far as I know, I hadn't heard the song for years. In fact, I didn't even know what song it was! It was driving me crazy! All I knew was the general tune and a few words from some chorus, which was what was looping in my head all day: .

Now, I think, if you're at or above the age of 40, you know the full gravity of my predicament. The song that just would not leave my skull all day was in fact Do You Feel Like We Do by Peter Mothergrabbin' Frampton.

I needed it out but bad. I was having flashbacks of Big Surf circa 1976. What to do? I tried listening to other music, but that hadn't worked all day so a little more would be similarly ineffectual. Reading a book was straight out. My foot kept tapping out tiny autonomic beats, completely of it's own accord. Can't use a drill. All my bits are in San Diego.

For lack of anything else to try, I wound up buying the the whole album off the Russians for $2.20. Forty-two minutes and forty-five seconds worth of listening later, it's finally gone.

Some demons need to be exorcised just so.
