oh ... earworm is when you hear a song and you can't get it out of your mind ... you hum, sing, la-la, whistle the tune ... or at least the parts you are familiar with ~ all day long until it drives you nearly mad ...
a radio personality on cbc once put it out to the listeners to come up with a different name for this malady ... and the one that i like from some of the entries is 'humbug' ...
isn't that better? "honey ... i've got a humbug!!"
anyways, in honour of gordon ... gordon waller of the peter & gordon fame ... who left this world too soon this week, but left us with a lot of great tunes to hum ~ uh, humbug to, just listen to this!
call me in the morning if you humbug in your dreams ...
the rx will be a new tune of course!
ps . john lennon originally wrote this tune
