Pop Goes My Brain

Today I heard ‘Pop Goes the World’ by Men Without Hats! (This is funny if you know the song.) It is an utter cheese song, but it’s cute, fun, and it has a nice chorus. Here was a rough outline of my thought process while listening to this song:

1) Hey, it’s the other Men Without Hats song.
2) This song is cheesy, but I kind of like it.
3) Sing the chorus!
4) Somebody should cover this, because that would be a lot of fun.
5) I wonder if this could be pulled off in karaoke, or if it’s too lame and/or obscure.
6) Who would cover this song in my ideal world?
7) Again, I ask why I enjoy 80s tunes so much.
8) Replay

As I said, this is a rough outline, but what I really take from this is: my mind jumps around a lot. I don’t think I’ve ever noticed it before, but for a laid back guy my brain is always buzzing from one thing to another. This is probably why I really despise repetitive tasks… and repetitive tasks is pretty much the nature of my job. Strike 97, o’ job of mine!

I resolve to research this more.

Speaking of the job, today was a strange mix. I’ll have to elaborate more later.
