Airport musings
Aug. 8th, 2009 06:24 pmI think in music a lot. I'm often singing songs in my head, or hearing music in everyday noises, and when playing word association games my first answer is almost always from a song lyric.
Browsing the bestseller rack here at the airport, I just realized the lyrical conceit that Wally Lamb uses to name books: She's Come Undone, I Know This Much Is True, and now The Hour I First Believed. Do you immediately hear all three songs in your head when you read the book titles? I'm thinking that at least one of them might be a generational miss for some of you. But if more than one of them drops the needle on the ol' mental Victrola, which one comes back to you and repeats the most? Which one is playing in your brain pan riiiiiiight... NOW?
