Don't you just hate it when you get a song stuck in your head? And it's not because you heard it on the radio; you were just doing something and the sadistic part of your brain just decided to dig it up for you? I've got that right now.
The site I'm doing for Htet Htet's mom is a jewelry company. So as I'm coming up with layouts (Woo-hoo! I'm a designer now!) my brain calls up rom the depths... "This Diamond Ring" (which a Google search tells me is by a group called Gary Lewis & the Playboys from 1965). This song is horrible. I mean, yes, it's almost 40 years old and thus has two and a half strikes against it already, but this song sucks.
Who do I blame for this? My parents. They like this crap. And since I was stuck listening to their garbage music as a kid, I have a better oldies selection floating around in my head than you can find at some record stores. Including this damn song. Here, look for yourself. If you were subjected to this as a kid, you'll probably be humming it all damn day.
You can thank me later.
