fads

For some reason, I've just developped a fad for George Harrison's I've got my mind set on you. Well, of course it's one heck of a good song. But does it happen to you too, to suddenly awaken to the beauty of this or that work of art and, for a week or two, to keep playing it/ reading it/ looking at it more often than anything else?

Hey, it happened to me with a movie (Roman Holiday, as you might remember) at the end of last year, and it lasted over two months!

And I get shorter-term things for songs and books, too. "The Windmills of Your Mind," for instance, grabbed me not too long ago.

It did that to me, too. It is quite a grabby song - there is something about its circular yet passionate melody that really does catch the attention.

The repetitiveness is hypnotic-- it draws you in.
