the down side of working at an oldies station.

If I hear "Brown-eyed Girl" one more time, I think I'll puke.

Oh, what's that? Nancy Sinatra? No, it was just a commercial for the station that obviously never plays Nancy Sinatra. There's just not enough air time left after playing "Midnight Train to Georgia" and "I Got You Babe" thirty times a piece. Coincidentally, not songs I really needed to hear the first time:

I've got to be with him
(I know you will)
on that midnight train to Georgia
(leaving on the midnight train to Georgia)
(whoo whoo)
I'd rather live in his world
(live in his world)
than live without him in mine.

[Cher:] They say our love won't pay the rent
Before it's earned, our money's all been spent.
[Sonny:] I guess that's so, we don't have a pot
But at least I'm sure of all the things we got.
[Sonny:] Babe.
[BOTH:] I got you babe I got you babe.

Sadly, whenever I hear "What Becomes of the Broken-hearted" I can't help but think of Kathy Bates in Fried Green Tomatoes. Which makes me think my memory is incorrectly wired. Why do I know what song is playing when Evelyn Couch imagines herself wearing a cellophane dress, but barely remember to feed our fish?

It's like I'm stuck on pause... In this world, disco never happened.
