Mental Radio Plays Oldies

My mental radio is always on. Usually it plays songs that I’ve heard recently. So these days I should be hearing selections from the latest Coldplay and Elbow albums, plus occasional snippets of songs from the kids’ TV shows. And indeed, those have been on. For example, there is this one children’s TV show called Peg + Cat, and every time the characters solve a problem, they sing a little “Problem Solved” ditty. That’s been stuck in my head with some frequency. But my brain has also been digging deep into the past, unearthing such gems as . . .

  1. “The Small Hours” as performed by Metallica
  2. “Manic Monday” by The Bangles
  3. “California Dreamin'” by The Mamas & the Papas
  4. “Is There Anybody out There?” by Pink Floyd, instrumental half only
  5. Theme from Bewitched
  6. Theme from I Dream of Jeannie
  7. “Puttin’ on the Ritz” as performed by Taco

I probably haven’t heard some of these songs for a decade or more. So what made my mind dredge them up? I have no idea!
