Songs I hummed today
I am an inveterate hummer and whistler, this in spite of having a horrible memory for melodies and being tone-deaf. I am also a terrible whistler.
But no matter. It's not my problem; it's everyone else's.
Anyway, I kept a running tally of the melodies I heard in my head today that came out in a tuneless rush (out of my mouth). These are they.
Who'll Be the Next In Line? (The Kinks)
Thelahujinjeet (sp?) (King Crimson)
The Common People (Pulp)
Let There Be Rock (AC/DC) (I think with this one I may have managed a quick vocalization of LETTHEREBEROCK out the side of my mouth. I probably sounded more like Brian Johnson than Bonn Scott, and that causes me a lot of heartache.)
The Primo Vere section from Carmina Burana (That's not the scary part. It's the light and airy part afterwards that sounds like an Alpine pagan mating ritual)
Is it Really So Strange? (The Smiths) ("I left the South. I travelled north. I got confused – I killed a horse. I can't help the way I feel.")
White Man in Hammersmith Palais (The Clash)
Happy Talk, from "South Pacific"
That's it.
