Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for November 15, 2015

Neal Hefti is definitely a man you place in your deepest soul and being. Also “Batman” kills as a punchline.

Holy theme song!

Now you got me thinking ahead: next Hallowe’en, Phoebe should go as Batgirl and Marigold can be her Batcy—wait… (looks it up) …Batgirl-Cycle? …Okay.

(I’d suggest Star Butterfly and her Warnicorn, but Marigold probably wouldn’t like giving herself rainbow teeth. Maybe she could wear a full-body black shroud and go as Princess Flying Pony Head?)

There is no song stuck in the head that can’t be cured by listening to Slayer with the volume on 11

Curse you Nelson Riddle !

Why is it that I never have BAD songs stuck in my head?

Not the typical earworm song, but “Terrapin Station” by The Grateful Dead has been rumbling through my head and heart for the last couple of days. “Crickets and cicadas sing…”

Here you go.The ultimate ear worm.Listen, if you dare!

Well…there are worse songs.

The electric lash of trees in the studioFills my head with lightOnly the voice of the girl on the radioFalling from a height

Listen to the Piano Guys “Batman Evolution,” it will quickly segue into some amazing music.

Earworm!

I was 12 years old when the Adam West “Batman” TV show first came on the air. I thought it was terrific. Surprised anyone as young as Phoebe (or her parents) would even know about it.

Me too Phoebe.

Owww! Oh thank YOU for making me snort shredded wheat out of my nose. Ohhh, the pain, the pain! :)

Hey, little HollywoodYou’re gone butYou’re not forgotten…

(My current ear worm. Sedona by Houndmouth.)

Now THAT was funny, Dana! As Dick Van Dyke ( and probably others before him) said, humor is the art of the unexpected. Batman and a Unicorn: never the twain…

Thanks Marigold, now it’s stuck in my head

Holy crimefighter Batman…..that song is super

Well, at least it isn’t at 10 RPM. Hey, I still remember my old references… http://ozyandmillie.org/2000/08/28/ozy-and-millie-417/

I guess that means for Marigold, it isn’t an earworm, it’s a heartworm. No wonder she’s upset!

The worst part of that particular song is that it repeats in my head in the original “voices”.

Start playing Shari Lewis’ version of “The Song That Doesn’t End…”

I wonder what the Unicorn national anthem is?

Especially if it’s the “Batusi”…

What about FALL OUT BOY’S Uma Therman .

Oh, you just HAD to bring that song up LOL. https://xkcd.com/851/

if Marigold can sing the whole thing Phoebe can go “sock!” “pow!” “zok!” etc. in the right places

I always have a song stuck in my heart. But usually it’s the 60s Spider-Man theme, not the 60s Batman theme. XD

Looks like Phoebe’s dad exposed Marigold to the classic TV show. :)
