I just started a Substack yesterday called Still Singing. I’m excited to see where it goes! There is ALWAYS a song in my head, and that Band-Aid jingle, I think, was written by Barry Manilow, if I’m not mistaken. I will always be a Fanilow.

This is a really good one. Thanks for writing it.

Pretty much every moment of my day leads to a song that gets stuck in my head. Woke up to rain this morning: "Summer Rain" by Johnny Rivers. Had to write a bio to write a comment: "Gypsies, Tramps, and Thieves." And, periodically, "The Thong Song," as I am periodically seized by an urge to shake that thing like who's the ish with a look in my eyes so devilish. (It passes quickly. I never do it.)
