I find this meme very strange – so many of the songs seem so apt somehow. First seen at Ampersand Duck‘s.

(I have probably used up my quota of memes this past couple of weeks. This morning I don’t have much time to read, ponder and blog as I have to be at work early (M needs to get in early to do daylight saving preparation with our servers). It’s very grey and raining at the moment – most un-Novemberish!)
