Talking of earworms...

I have this bad habit of whistling 'tunes' when in certain rooms - it
must be the acoustics.

I should have said the tunes whistle me - since I don't do it
consciously - and if I try to stop it starts up again a few seconds later.

Yesterday I wandered from the kitchen into the storeroom whistling Tommy
Steel's "Little White Bull". I came out a couple of seconds later,
whistling some of the more interesting bits of the 1812 Overture.

Quite how one morphed into the other I cannot tell.

Is there a cure?

That was 1959 (google tells me), so I was a a worldly wise nine year old.

Unforgetting stuff like that is easy.

It says in the song what place it is from, "Where the tulips Grow,"

The Netherlands. or as most people from West of There call it, Holland.
Unless they are thinking of the english "Holland"

For years I thought Some Enchanted Evening was Sam and Janet Evening mis-
heard lyrics are a very rich vein to mine.
Car and Mirror Mine
Bears and cubs have a devil for a sideboard

Of course the song written by Bruce Springsteen Blinded by the light is
total nonsense as he admitted himself, indeed it took Manfred Manns Earth
band to make it sound like it referred to female sanitary products to make
it a hit.

For me the toothbrush song was the ear worm. Incidentally the sheddi

Yes don't you think Little White Bull took advantage of the fact that in
those days we did not understand the cruelty involved in bullfighting? Tommy
The Toreador would never be made today, nor do Spanish children singing in
English sound like those in the film.
I just wonder at what point Tommy Steele morphed from a pop singer to an
actor and purveyor of comedy songs? Who remembers I puts the lighty on, all
about a little man who lived in his fridge.
Mind you, over the years of pop music there have been some bizarre things
recorded by otherwise well respected singers. Take The Little Blue Man by
Petula Clark or her rendition of Make Way, which appears to have a lot in
common with the Yellow rose of Texas and other traditional songs.
If Helen Reddy were still alive and had just recorded Angy baby would it
have been as much of a hit as it was?

I just have to go and play Purple People Eater by Sheb Wooley. I'm sure that
song inspired Rap-Ture.

"Où sont les neiges d'antan?"

That post had everything twice. What is going on. Oh I have it on 45, having
migrated to these quite recently. Was it not Singing Time on the B side of
the single? Decca have a lot to answer for.
Yes I can remember what I did yesterday too, but the problem seems to be
that it has to do with named people or telephone numbers I never know what
they were. Likewise the order in which I do things seems seldom to be
preserved. I think as we age the memories get fragmented and re-stored
making things like ordering and details hard to recall at the time you need
them. That is why we are so bad at remembering passwords.

I heard Little White Bull only three days ago on Boom Radio.
Like the old saying goes, what goes around comes around.

Going on to the 70s, I still get ear wormed by Harry Nielsen's Coconut song.
Total rubbish but somehow annoyingly catchy.

I ohled Tommy Steele's "whistling the blues" (1957) on a 78 out of my pocket
money. I'd have been 11.

Tommy was big when i was young. The rumor was that whoever controlled
him would only allow rubber strings in his guitar, and when he visited
Ireland, he had to leave his hotel room, while a group of specially
hired thugs trashed it, the image of a pop star included him trashing
the room. Migh have been a decent guy, but we will never really know.
