Mine have been a slightly baffling selection just lately. First it was Tiger Feet. Then I caught myself singing Good King Wenceslas in the car, and couldn't get rid of it out of my head, then for several days it was 9 to 5 (for obvious reasons) and now, this afternoon, it has become A Nightingale Sang In Berkely Square, for no good reason I can think of.

Please tell me I'm not alone in this weirdness!

Random but Here comes my baby by the Tremeloes. I hadn’t heard it for about thirty years. It’s a sweet song though.

Love it , a great break up song. Cat Stevens original is gorgeous too.

If I knew who'd written that thing... 🙄

Currently, I have Winter from The Four Seasons by Vivaldi. Much more soothing.
