Morning soundtrack No. 1

Everyday I wake up, there's a song playing in my head. It usually overrides whatever Tom Joyner and the crew are discussing when my clock radio switches on. I'm not sure when this started, but I noticed it last year when I realized I can't exactly function until I get this song out of my head. That usually happens when I sing it in the shower or listen to it while on my way to work.

Last week, I had the pleasure of waking up to the sounds of Queen for about three days straight. First, it was "Somebody to Love," and why wouldn't it be? That's a great song. I mean, it was great enough for the cast of "Glee" to remake it (and do an excellent job by the way).

The second day it was "Bohemian Rhapsody." That one I blame on my niece. She recently discovered The Muppets version of this song and now walks around singing it nonstop - in the voice of Gonzo.

Then of course on Friday, I woke up singing "Another One Bites the Dust" to end my week. That's just the perfect Friday song. At this point, I'm pretty sure my neighbors are convinced I have Queen's Greatest Hits on repeat right now.

If that's not enough, this week's featured artist is Aerosmith. A little "Tiffany Trivia," Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, the Dixie Chicks (they count as a band, right?) Earth Wind & Fire, Tony Toni Tone and Mint Condition are my favorite bands. I have more music by those bands floating in my iPod than any others.

In fact, one of my favorite songs of all time is "Don't Wanna Miss A Thing." But for some reason, this is the song that has been dominating my morning showers this week:
