I've had a couple movements of Ippolitov-Ivanov's Caucasian Sketches 
stuck in my head for about 30 years, does that count?

That sounds truly dreadful.  I spent a full year with "Tomorrow Never Knows"
stuck in my head, and it was bad enough.

hmmm....
I have a few songs stuck in my noodle that I can't seem to match 
with a name..

The first one is a tune from the movie "Schindlers List", at the 
very begining when he sitting in the fancy nite club hob-knobing 
with the Nazis. The same tune is in the movie True Lies at the 
end when Jamie Lee Curtis and Arnold do the Tango.



The other is way more obscure.....

In the 1979 movie "Time After Time" a sci-fi movie about Jack the 
Ripper and H.G. Wells. At the very begining of the movie, Jack the
Ripper has a pocket watch that plays a really nice tune. I've also 
heard it in an episode of "Little House on the Prarie" where one of
the characters has a music box that plays that tune.


anyone know the actual names of either of these songs i'm refering to?

  I believe the tango used in "True Lies" was Carlos Gardel's "Por Una
  Cabeza."  I don't remember it being used in "Schindler's List" but I
  don't specifically recall much about that movie..

Rockpile's version of "Teacher Teacher," which is motiviating a 
late-70s mix CD.

I'm researching English country dance tunes and am finding that some of 
them are amazingly catchy: "Newcastle" and "Gathering Peascods" in 
particular.

"The Yale Boolah".  (Don't ask... ;-)

"I'm a Soldier (in the Army of the Lord)" and "People Are Strange" have been
switching off all day.

"September" from The Fantasticks, off and on for the last 18 years or so.

Just saw it again this weekend, too.

Earlier I had "Sometimes in Winter" by Blood Sweat & Tears, but now I'm
watching Kirk Douglas in "The Vikings" and I've got that theme currently
stuck.

re #31 Thanks mcnally!
I would have never figured that out; it's not one of those things that you
can google to figure out...

anyways..the other song in Shindlers list that I liked was "Gloomy Sunday".

David Bowie's "Changes".  I really need to get a copy of that album.  Bowie
is somebody I've really only listened to in the last year or so.  His 70's
albums are brilliant.

Two of Bowie's 70s albums with Brian Eno are the basis for symphonies 
by Philip Glass.  I know the symphonies, though not the original 
albums, and like them.

  I know the albums, but not the symphonies, and I like *them*..

I've been meaning to listen to both for ages.  I love Bowie, I adore Brian
Eno, and Philip Glass doesn't make me twitch nearly as much as he used to.
But I still haven't gotten around to it...

  I know one of the albums that Glass used for a symphony was "Heroes"
  but which was the other?  "Lodger"?

Glass doesn't make me twitch.  He seemed quite nice actually.

response 46 of 51: Mark Unseen   May 20 04:49 UTC 2003

The other Glass/Bowie symphony was based on "Low," IIRC

response 47 of 51: Mark Unseen   May 20 10:51 UTC 2003

  Actually, that makes more sense than one based on "Lodger"..

N 2 Deep, "Back To the Hotel," thanks to the local hip-hop/Top 40 
station's Old School Lunch.
