Movin' Right Along

Saw the new Muppet flick (so fun, and moving! I actually teared up a couple times). Predictably, a song from the original 1979 movie popped into my head the next morning.

Crocodile Rock

Elton's outrageous outfits are really showcased well on the Muppet Show, no?

It's always weird and noteworthy for me to have a song in my head that calls out my own name. I've decided to create a new label for the phenomenon, even. There've been a couple over the course of the blog, but I suspect there will be more. I have one of those names, I guess.

Artist: Elton John

Note: Also interesting - I'm turning 39 this week, and this song was released in the year of my birth! :)
