erinaceous is me. "Walking on Sunshine" got on my last nerve.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Jon is right, too. Hey Ya = Walking on Sunshine. I predict its ubiquity is only beginning.
Well, I can't begrudge the royalties to Kimberly Rew who was, after all, a Softboy.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
any hints for this iTunes user?
It's been discussed in technology, I think, but there's a way, in the newer versions of iTunes, to makes all the songs on a mix about the same volume.

It was discussed here, too.
In the newer versions of iTunes (a.k.a., Not The Version That Steph Has But She's Not Bitter), there's a menu option where you can equalize the volume.
It's either under Preferences, or Burning, or something.
Let me see if I can Nilly....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
You see, *I* hated "Walking on Sunshine" from Listen One, so all y'all's comparisons are making of the no sense to me.
This is me. Times infinity.

A Soft Boy who went bad. He is dead to me now.

Damn straight. Although I also hated "Sunshine" from the get-go. What I was trying to say is that unlike "Sunshine" I rather like "Hey Ya," but like "Sunshine," I suspect that "Hey Ya" will be or already is obnoxiously ubiquitous and will continue to be so until we're all in adult diapers.

I appreciate it, guys. I rarely venture into Technology, so I wouldn't even know where to start looking.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
I wish I'd known about the mixed cd thing! I would have loved to participate.
Tina, did you ever do those DMB bootlegs for me? It was DMB and something else, I think.

Every time I come to this thread, the Hey Ya earworm returns. Can we just stop talking about it?

OK by me. Yesterday I bought the Kaito (UK) album Band Red and the Mekons' Punk Rock album.
