We have yet another new category of repetunes. "Tenuousness" suddenly popped into my head today at lunch, for what at first appeared to be no reason. Then I realized that it has a lot of similarities to "Dance, Dance, Dance." They both are a little sweet, a little bouncy, a little whimsical, and make me happy happy happy. Like new BFFs frolicking in a field together holding hands. They definitely want to be on a mix tape together.
And (omg) Neko Case has a cover of "Buckets of Rain?" Is that even allowed? So much happiness! Whimsy! Playfulness! "If You Want to Sing Out, Sing Out" by Cat Stevens also wants to be involved in today's whimsical goodness, but it didn't quite reach earworm status. It just wanted to come out and play.
"Buckets of Rain" - once in fourteen days - heard it recently, new obsession
"Dance, Dance, Dance" - twice in fourteen days - catchy, heard it recently, new obsession
"Tenuousness" - once in fourteen days - prior obsession, similarity to current earworm
"All This Time" - twice in fourteen days - memory, heard it recently, processing
