So I offered to make someone a mix for their birthday.

And they said yes, but it must contain Scorpion “Wind of Change.”

I told them not to expect Headbanger’s Ball, but now that I’ve got Scorpion slotted in, all and I mean ALL I can think about is Whitesnake.
Take me down, slow and easy…der der der der…[“der der der der” isn’t that what the guitar part sounds like to you? no?]

In a likely futile effort to get the Whitesnake out of my head, I’m now listening to the following in a vaguely repeat fashion:

  • “Something Pretty” Patrick Park (…and as for loneliness, she greets me every morning…)
  • “Halo” Bethany Joy Lenz (sung as the character Haley on the show I am too embarrassed to admit I occasionally watch)
  • “World Spins Madly On” the Weepies
  • “Wildwood Flower” (cover) Reese Witherspoon
  • “On Your Porch” The Format

Wish me luck.
