As long as Ed Robertson is singing, I'm happy. Careless Whisper.

insidious ungovernable cardboard
Not exactly stupid-happy--more like stupid-angry--but when the Pogues "Sickbed of Cuchulainn" comes on my iPod in the middle of a run or walk with the dog, my legs automatically break into a jig. I can't stop them, and I'm sure I look like an idiot, but I think my Irish blood reaches up and strangles my free will and I end up dancing.

Thanks for starting this thread. I just downloaded "Flood" from TMBG and about 10 other songs. I've gotten reacquainted with lots of songs from my past that bring back great memories. I'd forgotten about TMBG for so long. Thanks for making my day!
Check out my running blog: www.turtlepacing.blogspot.com
Cervelo P2C (tri bike)
Bianchi Eros (commuter/touring road bike)
1983 Motobecane mixte (commuter/errand bike)
Cannondale F5 mountain bike
No problem! I'm going through CDs I've ignored for years and burning stuff I forgot how much I loved!
Okay, and my other insane happiness song is Ween "Push th' Little Daisies." I was driving out to Hood River to do some mountain biking on a gorgeous day and that came on. I had never heard it before and it just filled me with glee.
"True, but if you throw your panties into the middle of the peloton, someone's likely to get hurt."

By charity, goodness, restraint, and self-control men and woman alike can store up a well-hidden treasure -- a treasure which cannot be given to others and which robbers cannot steal. A wise person should do good. That is the treasure that cannot be lost.
