I wake up every morning with a song stuck in my head. And now it's stuck in yours.

And on your face...

Do That To Me One More Time
This song is sadly underrepresented in nostalgic playback in my life. Its racy lyrics, masked as they are by the smooth pop melody, flowed into my late-70s/early 80s kid consciousness almost insidiously. "THAT'S what they're talking about??"
Artist: Captain and Tennille
Year: 1979
Rating: Warm
Note: Get ready for the Captain's recorder breakdown at about 1:35!

Breaking Us In Two
I alerted the tribes on twitter/soozzip last Sunday that this song had already been in my head for some time. Still it persists, and, though I love me some Joe Jackson, and I love this song, the compulsive repetition is wearing on me. I even tried a Mozart Reset, to only limited effect. Sometimes too much of a good thing is too much.
Artist: Joe Jackson
Year: 1982
