o o o o . . . . Pachelbel's "Canon" .

Sorry, I'm just about maxed out on that one.

Our choirmaster does a "cocktail lounge version" of it that is lie down on the floor and howl funny. We told him he needs to put a brandy snifter on the corner of the organ for tips . . .

My problem with tunes stuck in my head is that I can't get rid of the Sunday anthems for a day or so afterwards. I don't much care for the modern stuff (Jane Marshall's "Happy are they whose transgressions are forgiven" is pretty rough, that was last Sunday's offertory) but the real problem is that I sing alto, so the alto line is what's stuck. So sometimes it's not even really a tune. Fortunately, the communion anthem was Richard Farrant's "Hide Not Thou Thy Face O Lord" which is not only beautiful but has a delightful moving alto line. So I cheerfully carolled that all the way to work.
