Okay, this post could go into so many places. It could go in Stro because I've been thinking about Neil Diamond a lot. It could go in Rocketman because that's part of the problem. Or maybe I should just start an earworm thread so we can talk about what is currently playing inside our heads.
But I'll put it here because 'Sweet Caroline' was part of an ongoing joke about Covid-19. Touching Me. Touching you. Stop, Neil, stop.
Neil Diamond posted a video with new lyrics about don't touch me, don't touch you and since then, Sweet Caroline is on constant refrain in my head. It could be a Zeitgeist thing as well. There is another Neil Diamond joke about singing a few bars of Sweet Caroline and getting the Bup Bup Bah in return, much like the shave and a haircut knock. It's irresistible.
When Sweet Caroline takes a break, "I'm still Standing" by Elton John creeps in. Mostly because I made the Queen watch Rocketman and as we all know that's the big finale song.
I'm getting the earworm twofer.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
