This is a Canadian classic... and I've had it stuck in my head for like two days, so I'm going to inflict this earworm on you all.

Stan Rogers - Barrett's Privateers

I was told we'd cruise the seas for American gold
we'd fire no guns, shed no tears!
But I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier
the last of Barrett's Privateers


I think I know the parodies of that song better than the original!  In the filk community, Stan's well known and well-loved

And then there's this:

Keep an eye on me. I shimmer on horizons.

There's NOTHING wrong with having Aretha stuck in your head.  Which has me thinking about a little Satchmo for the morning

Am I to interpret this to mean that you have some song-related trauma going on there, dear Vi?

If I may say something, there are a lot of worst songs which would justify this treatment, to my mind...

Been on a Les Misérables musical nostalgia kick. Except... even though I love a lot of the songs, the one I keep returning to is this:

Les Misérables - I Dreamed A Dream

It isn't even my favourite, but I keep listening to it over and over and it makes me want to write tons of sad stories, oh no.
