Funny how music permeates our very soul, in that songs that we heard WAY back, still run through our minds today. The song running through my mind when I'm depressed, "I don't want to talk about it" by Rod Stewart, but when I'm really happy it's "Jesus loves me." Music is so connected to our memories and moods.
A friend of mine sent me a link to her nephew's magic show (Dan Sperry) on something called "America's Got Talent". There was a catchy, old-fashioned tune that went with this performance. The darn tune played itself over and over in my head, but finally I went to You Tube and typed in, "Our Lady of Knock", and that was a welcome and edifying replacement.
I am always amazed at the power of music and of memory -- this is really a mystery that I can only hope to understand in Heaven,if I am so fortunate to get there.
