Last Song

Rats! I’m so bummed that I was taking a nap when Andrew sent out this genius prompt. My answer would have been:

“Before He Cheats,” by Carrie Underwood
We turned on VH1 to supply the proper background noise for the sleeping kiddo, and this video was on. I almost lunged at the TV to change the channel. I had just gotten the damn song out of my head after (I do not exaggerate) a four-day brain rotation. For three nights, I was waking up to go to the bathroom and humming this maddening song. I finally cleansed by singing “I Got Rhythm” over and over because it was the catchiest song I could remember. Now I’m betting on the “I Dream of Jeannie” theme song, but no luck so far.

What’s the last song you heard?

  1. “Little Red Corvette” by Prince. Just got back in from walking the dog. Before Prince was Yolanda Adam’s “Victory” and before that “Eyeball Kid” by Tom Waits. Kind of an oddball bunch of tunes on my shuffle but they all keep me moving.

  2. “Between the bars” by Elliot Smith. I am trying to learn it so I can sing it to my baby because I, too, dislike lullabies.
    The last song I had on brain “repeat” was Alanis’s version of “My Humps.” It was four days I never want to relive.

  3. That freaking song by Gym Class Heroes, “Cupid’s Chokehold.” It’s on the radio every three minutes and I CAN’T TAKE IT ANYMORE! I can’t be cured because the radio WON’T LET ME BE!
