something in the beer

there must be something in the beer. for the last hour or so before i get back to my hotel room i can think of nothing but this one particular song. now, that happens a lot, where a song enters your head and won’t leave without a good brawl or some of the hard stuff, but the queer thing is that this song wasn’t even one i liked especially. it’s a song i’ve heard a few times, on account of it lying next to a song i do like on an album i generally don’t, and my being too bone idle to get up and see to the thing, if you take my meaning. but it’s not a song i like, or a song that says a great deal to me. and the other thing is, this isn’t your ordinary song stuck in head situation, because i’m quite done over with the urge to listen to the thing. i’ve been losing my concentration all night, and not just because of the beer, now, and i’ve been stuck uncommon hard on the chorus of this song. and when i get back to my hotel room, after a glass or two if you catch my meaning, i can’t do nothing, not a thing, but hunt down this song, this song i don’t really like, and listen to it on the old laptop computer, which is terrible quality sure, and no bottom end and no top end neither, but it’s there all the same, it’s the song, the one i’ve been wanting to hear. now don’t look at me like that you know, there must be something in the beer.

    That’s what you get for mixing Britney Spears and Canadian beer, I’m afraid. I recommend exorcism.

    pog - no.

    naiad - not britney. Britney is beer.

    jimi - you mean Dinosaur Jnr’s Freak Scene? No. Not Wham, either. It was a fairly mundane album track by The Coral, a group who did one incredible song by accident and then turned into an indie pastiche of Gerry and the Pacemakers.

    It’s rhyming slang, innit? As in, I’m just nipping out for a couple of Britneys with the lads.

    indeed it was Dinosaur Jr Freak Scence, I only named checked that song as I hadn’t heard it for a while and I dug out the Bug album and have playing it since and Freak Scene just won’t leave my mind. (even 4 / 5 days after my initial comment).
    Jeez, I used to love the Dinosaur Jr
