So, come on, tell us: What's stuck in your head today?
The song "If I Were a Rich Man" has been going endlessly in my head today -- but for an odd reason. I came upon a fascinating, albeit bizarre video from 1969 where the legendary R&B soul group, The Temptations, sang a long, 9-minute medley from Fiddler on the Roof. It's a strange performance that doesn't all work, but at times it's joyous. But when they get to the "yaggah, deedle, didle, dum," it's almost TV history.

We don't serve your country We don't serve your king White man listen to the songs we sing White man came took everything

We don't need protection Don't need your hand Keep your promise on where we stand We will listen we'll understand

Re: What song is stuck in your head today?
The song I have stuck in my head this morning it "Learning to Fly" by Pink Floyd. Actually, it is not a bad song to have stuck in your head, or at least not to me, since Pink Floyd is one of my favorite bands.

Re: What song is stuck in your head today?
Today at lunch I was making a sandwich and could not find any whole wheat bread (my preference), so had to use white bread. For some reason, that put the song "Uptown Girl" ("She's living in her white bread world") in my head, and it has been stuck there since.
