          For what seemed hours driving through the night last night it was "Convoy".

            Gillan's cover of 'New Orleans', so much so that I had to dig it out on Spotify to refresh my memory of it.

                A big strummy indie tune from a few years ago that I've had on the brain for a couple of days now.

                        Miranda Lambert with a woman's hurtin' song if ever there was one. Can't think why it goes round in my head and escapes in the shower.

                          Self-inflicted.

                          And that makes it worse!

                              Working in a South London venue, testing cables today, about ten minutes into sorting a mountain of Jack Plugs I had the Reynolds Girls in my head. Happily this was soon replaced by Nick Cave's Do You Love Me when some of the cables got hopelessly tangled!

                                  Jimmie Rodgers The Fox and the Goose. Self-inflicted. And that makes it worse!
                                  Yes! Childhood memories of playing this on my Dad's Dansette. The B side was 'Soldier, Won't You Marry Me?', iirc.

                                  He also did 'English Country Garden', and to this day whenever a robin lands on a hedge nearby I get that earworm, "Robin, robin, robin, don't forget the robin."

                                    Definitely lifting phrasing and melodies that were central to Leonard Cohen's work:

                                        My condolences, AH, very moving to listen to that 'in context'.

                                            Primus are great, even if the creepiest don't take a lift in their van looking band ever.

                                              Primus are the best support band I've ever seen. They were supporting Rush at the time, so you can imagine my excitement.

                                                Only Fife's finest Nazareth could come close.
