    Who You’d Be Today – Kenny Chesney
    HaylingFC Kahuna
    Hotel California – Eagles
    Walk between the Raindrops – Adam Again
    Hey Julie – Fountains of Wayne
    The Bed’s too Big without You – Police
    It’s Only Natural – Crowded House
    Wise Up – Aimee Mann
    Troubled Man – 77s
    The Side You Never Get to See – Frames

Quickly becoming my musical mantra: “Hayling”
Interesting re-use of a melody: The folks at one of Philly’s several sportstalk radio stations have harnessed the musical prowess of FoW’s “Hey Julie” to great effect by rewriting the lyrics and retitling it “Hey Charlie” – a twisted little tribute to every Philadelphian’s favorite baseball manager. It works for me, but I wonder how many folks in the Philly area actually get the fact that it’s a ripoff of an actual song?

I never thought about the idea of a musical mantra, but “Hayling” seems like a good choice.
