so take a look at me now

I have an affliction. There is never a time when I do not have a song stuck in my head. Also, I am highly susceptible to people influencing the songs that end up being stuck in my head. My friends love to influence me. In fact I just received an email the other day from a friend with the complete lyrics to Phil Collins’ “Against All Odds”. That was a painful couple of days. Another friend likes to put his cell phone up to the radio whenever an Arrowsmith song comes on the radio.

So, in effort to find new and interesting ways to dislodge these often unwanted songs from my head I will be featuring the songs that are stuck in my head in this blog.

Sometime this affliction is a curse because it is often bands or songs that I especially don’t like, but I sometimes like it because it helps me with my memory. I can honestly remember what people say to me or things that I have to do because of my little problem.

Todays feature: “Keep Livin’” by Jean Grae
I actually like this song. I have to piano part on a loop over and over. So, it probably isn’t her song that is stuck in my head since the piano loop is sampled. Well, since I do not know who it is sampled from this is the best I can do. (If you do know send me an email)
I saw Jean Grae last summer. When she performed this song there was some technical difficulties and the turntables lost power and after two failed attempts to get them back up the crowd convinced her to go a cappella. She is a very talented woman.
