Earworm – Real World

Last Saturday, Dad and I were out for our normal supplies run and we stopped at our favorite Mexican restaurant. They used to play Mexican music but for some reason, they now play pop music. Oh, well that’s ok. At least it’s not country music.

Anyway, this song comes on and I love the song, but it has been stuck in my head since Saturday! I wake up with it playing in my head. I go to bed with it playing in my head. The lyrics that resonate with me the most are, “I wish the real world would just stop hassling me.”

The shit going on the real world right now is causing me so much anxiety. I’m not freaking out about COVID-19 but I am concerned. I’m mostly concerned for my Dad, who’s 83 years old. He still wants to go out on Saturdays. We will go out again this Saturday, but I told him when this thing is more widespread across our state, (only 2 cases, so far) then we WILL be staying home. In addition to that, I’m having to jump through hoops to get my pain meds refilled. I know people who rely on narcotic pain meds to function and they have to jump through hoops BUT mine are not narcotics. I’m not sleeping well due to my pain level being extraordinarily high and I’m running out of my meds! Now I have to see a new FNP because the one I had been seeing left the clinic. Holy crap.

I know the meaning of this song is more than that one line, but that one line is what resonates with me in the here and now.

Earworm – November Rain

One of my favorite bands is Guns n Roses. The old Guns n Roses, that is. Slash is my favorite guitarist and I always wish he would just do one rock ballad instrumental album and I would die happy.

The guitar solo from this song has been playing in my head for days. The song is part of a trilogy (Don’t Cry, November Rain, Estranged) and based on the short story by Del James called “Without You.” The three songs just happen to be 3 of my favorite GnR songs.

November Rain a great song and the video has a few stupid parts but it’s worth watching, in my opinion. You can catch just the guitar solo at around 4:07 in case you want to skip right to it.

Earworm – Under Your Scars

This past few weeks I’ve been hearing a new song on Sirius XM by Godsmack and I really love it. It’s called “Under Your Scars.” I’ve liked Godsmack for a long time now but haven’t enjoyed any of their songs nearly as much as their hit “Voodoo.” (Until now.) “Voodoo” has a ‘witchy’ vibe (lead singer Sully Erna is a practicing Wiccan) and the drums are spectacular! Check that one out when you have a chance.

Godsmack has been around for a little over 2 decades now. They have a new album out and I like the new songs I’ve heard so far but this one really hits me in the feels, as they say. It’s been stuck in my mind since the moment I rolled out of bed this morning.

 

Ok, so now I have to share “Voodoo” with you because I had to go watch the video!

 

Ok, I can just imagine what’s going on inside your mind right now! They are not Devil worshippers. The Devil is a Christian concept and has no place in Wicca.

What about those drums, ‘eh?

Earworm – Que Sera Sera

At around 6am, I woke up with this song in my head. Not sure why. I haven’t heard it in ages. I think there’s a commercial on tv that uses part of the song but it’s been a while since I’ve even heard that. Anyway, from 6am until even NOW, this song is still stuck in my head. I don’t dislike it but would rather have something with big guitars stuck, thank you very much.
