Earworms

Today's earworm is "strawberries, cherries and an angel's kiss in spring..." Don't even know where I picked it up, except that I put strawberries and cherry vanilla yogurt in my daughter's breakfast smoothie.
Earworms generally are funny, and annoying -- they are songs you like but can't get out of your head once you hear them. The biggest all time earworms are "Strangers In The Night" (only Frank Sinatra's version) and "The Lion Sleeps Tonight", which I heard for the first time in 9th grade. Two years ago, for Hanukkah, my husband and daughter made me a CD from a list of earworms and I love using it for my exercise class.
