Track: 03

"Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life." - Berthold Auerbach

How many times has this happened to you - you're sitting somewhere, minding your own business, listening to music (whether it be your iPod or the radio, it doesn't matter.) When suddenly, a really catchy song comes on. You listen to it once, but then the chorus stays in your head the WHOLE rest of the day.
The worst part is that what stays in your head isn't the whole song itself, but just one section of the song replaying over and over again, like background music you can't turn off.

This usually happens to me, when I listen to a really repetitive pop song on the radio somewhere. But today is the first time that a song that I can't get out of my head has been a showtune. Now, when I get a song stuck in my head, it usually pops up in random moments and I usually hum part of it to myself or just in my head quietly.

But really, how many showtunes can be hummed, let alone quietly?
So here I was, not really paying attention to what I was doing, when I realized my friends were giving me weird looks. Turns out, I'd been belting out lyrics to Wicked's 'Defying Gravity' the entire time.

Ooops.

But really, whipping out the duct tape was not needed. That high note was not that loud. :)

Peace*
