Re: Help!!!!!!! I CANNOT get this tune out of my head!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Maybe if you tried some other songs with initials in them it might help you get the first one out of your head. Here are a couple that may help do that.
"I" is for the Irish in your tiny heart, my dear.
"R" means right, and when you're right, you have no right to fear.
"E" is for Eileen, your mother's name I mean,
"L" is for the Lakes where I first met my sweet colleen.
"A" is for the angels who are watching over you.
"N" means never frown, keep smiling through.
"D" is for your Daddy's lesson, and I pray 'twill be a blessin'
Sure, that's how I spell Ireland.
................................................................
M it stands for Mary
J it stands for John
P it stands for Paddy's Land, the land where I was born
S it stands for shamrocks green as plain as you will see, but of all the girls in this world give and Irish girl to me
Re: Help!!!!!!! I CANNOT get this tune out of my head!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bit early for this one but it might just work:
C is for the candy trimmed around the christmas tree,
H is for the happiness with all the family,
R is for the reindeer prancing by the window pane,
I is for the icing on the cake as sweet as sugar cane,
S is for the stocking hanging on the chimney wall,
T is for the toys beneath the tree so tall,
M is for the misletoe where everyone is kissed,
A is for the angels who make up the christmas list,
S is for the santa who makes every kid his pet,
Be good and he’ll bring you everything in your christmas alphabet!
Re: Help!!!!!!! I CANNOT get this tune out of my head!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I myself would pick having the singing of Cara Dillon stuck in my head, rather than any of the alternatives listed in this thread! Out of the frying pan and into the fire!
Re: Help!!!!!!! I CANNOT get this tune out of my head!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Definitely Abba songs will do the trick. I'm just home from watching the show and any jigs or reels that were in my head today have been completely obliterated.

Re: Help!!!!!!! I CANNOT get this tune out of my head!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's no bad thing to have songs and tunes running through your head on a regular basis, it's how we learn them.
But:
"P stands for Paddy, I suppose.
J for my love John.
W stands for false Willie, oh.
Johnny is the fairest man"
there's just something fundamentally wrong with that. Unjust even. Paddy gets away with it completely. Johnny wins all the praise and gets the girl, life is so unfair.

I think the adjective your hinting at there, in yon post, is strap on. However, and despite, this song deals with the observational dalliances of a curious youth. Who on the particular day in question finds themselves a spying a union of a couple (male and female) from behind a strategically placed old stone wall, you'll note the word wall is used, not a dike.

My baloney has a first name
It's O-S-C-A-R
My baloney has a second name
It's M-A-Y-E-R
Oh, I love to eat it every day
And if you ask me why, I'll say
Cause Oscar Mayer has a way with
B-O-L-O-G-N-A
How's that.

It's called P Stands for Paddy : see YouTube- P stands for Paddy (Cara Dillon)
An old woman sang it at a session a couple of weeks ago and for some reason I woke up this morning humming it!
Anybody know how to get rid of it? Its class and I always sing along and all but it is driving me absolutely crackers!!!!!!!!

Maybe you could take advantage of knowing this tune inside out to try and work it out on a melody instrument?
