Do You Ever....

...get a song stuck in your head and it plays over and over and over and OVER?  And sometimes it's only a fragment of the song, not the whole thing?  Man, I don't know how to get rid of it!  And that phenomenon, whatever it's called, makes me not want to listen to the song, which may be one I love, for a long, long time for fear that it'll get stuck again once I unstick it.  Today's continuous play?  Gentle On My Mind.  One of my favorite songs!  But now all I can think about is one line that keeps repeating -- "I still might run in silence, tears of joy might stain my face, and the summer sun might burn me till I'm blind, but not to where I cannot see you walking on the back roads by the rivers flowing gentle on my mind."  Okay, so is it stuck in your head now too?  I'm sorry!  I know that song as sung by Glen Campbell and didn't hear John Hartford, who wrote it, sing it until years later when I saw him in a tiny concert at a bar in Chicago.  A strange, marvelous evening of him singing and telling tales. Glen Campbell and John Hartford, both gone now, but their music lives on...in a continuous loop in my head!  

​I hope you're having a glorious day full of music and laughter.
