Song of the Day, March 31st

Yeah, now this is an interesting one, I wake up with Carmen Miranda in my head. How often does this happen to you? I know you're a big fan but...

To be up front, I most likely had been listening to heavy metal, or surf music, or maybe some British band crying out some sad love song, but certainly not Carmen Miranda. I have no beef with her, in fact I think she's pretty damn cool, but I don't go around listening to her.

So, to have this song, "Mama, Yo Quero", running around in my noggin first thing in the morning (and most of the day it turns out) is, as Kirk said in Wrath of Kahn, "damn peculiar." And really, it's most likely that I only know who she is thanks to the three alley cats harassing Tom of "Tom & Jerry" fame, strutting around singing "Mama, Yo Quero" and playing Tom like a fiddle. Poor guy always had such a tough go in life, but he never let that get him down...
