I must be going nuts. It seems like at least 2 or 3 times a week, I've got the sound track to Pee-Wee's Big Adventure running in the background of my mind while I'm working. If I had the soundtrack, I'd be playing it, it seems appropriate to what I'm doing.
Anybody else have this problem? Or have a soundtrack or theme music they think should be playing while their working?

Not familiar with that soundtrack ... I work to music most of the time though, so my mind is constantly occupied with soundscapes ... I like to imagine that I am off on a journey, not too disimilar to the world of the Yellow Submarine.

My brother's been driving me nuts today, whistling 'Harder to Breathe' by Maroon 5. A great song, I have no quarrel there, but he seems to make it sound like the theme to Some Mothers' do 'ave 'em. One of the TV shows I hate with a passion!! So, of course, now it's stuck in my head!

There's only two pieces of KPop I've ever heard. One was a song called Triangle. It was funny to hear thrash-metal-rap from Korea. But a fun kind of tune.
And then there's the lovely Kristine Sa, and her song Beautiful. Considering that it's 100% English, and I'm not even sure if she speaks Korean, and she lives here in the states (still I think), I'm not really sure she counts as 'genuine' KPop.
Ulysses: I've never heard of those groups, least not that I know of. Looks like I get to do a little searching and see what I'm missing. :)

Okay, today
David Byrne - My Fair Lady
Fern - Beautiful (Jason Gaylor worked here formerly, rock star he is)
Fern - Touch Me
Linkin Park - Meteoria (the album, whole thing)
Several pieces I put together in Acid for the original IAN.com rollout (we had a flash movie and they wanted music)
A.S.A.P - Utada Hikaru
Beautiful - Kristine Sa
Enrai - Do As Infintiy
Is it you? - Hitomi
Life Goes On - Dragon Ash (these guys just ROCK!)
Missing You (Will Break My Heart) - Ken Hido
Murio - Uehara Azumi
Rakuen Baby - Rip Slyme
Time Out - Eriko Imai
Same Night, Same Face - Fayray
Sakura doroppusu - Hikaru Utada (one of my most favorite singles - she sings like an angel on this one - all breathy and beautiful - makes you just want to snuggle up to her just to be close - just to touch and hold her... what? why are you looking at me like that? /DesktopModules/dotNetBB/emoticons/blink.gif)
Until The Day I Die - Luna Sea
Watasaminoki - Hajime Chitose
Samurai Drive - Hitomi
July 1st - Ayumi Hamasaki
Brand New Myself - Charcoal Filter
Viva La Revolution - Dragon Ash (most of the album)
And most of Utada's recent album released here in the States (she's damn big time in Japan, think Britney Spears kinda big)
There's the play list on the Zire 31 for today!
Maybe I'll get the Jukebox 3 out tomorrow...
