I hope the folks who like my "serious" writing won't roll their eyes at this "less thinky" item.
I'm attempting to keep a scientific record of all the pop songs that get stuck in my head. I have both love and hate for pop music, which has dominated my life and career, but endless exposure to it has driven me into the arms of jazz, classical, avant-garde music, international music where I can't understand the words, etc. This is partly because I can't stand it when songs get stuck in my head. Even after many hours of listening, Derek Bailey never gets stuck in my head, for which I thank the man.
