Music to my ears -- what do you hear?

   I hear music in my head all day long. Even when I'm not paying attention, music is still there. Sometimes it's a song I don't even like and I'm not sure where it came from, then I have to consciously change the channel and conjure up another song to make it stop. Still, I love having music in my head! Something as simple as a song can make me smile when I'm having a bad day or take me back to a happy time in my life.
   So I was thinking the other day: If I became deaf and could never actually hear another song again, what tune would I want permanently playing in my head? I had no trouble thinking of songs I dig, but picking just one? Impossible! So I settled on two: "Free Bird" by Lynyrd Skynyrd and "Wanna Be Starting Something" by Michael Jackson. "Free Bird" has always been my Southern-fried rock rebel anthem, and I've air-guitarred the "guitar army" riffs a gozillion times. "Wanna Be Starting Something" unleashes the dance diva in me and inspires me to "lift my head up high and scream out to the world, I know I am someone and let the truth unfurl. No one can hurt me now because I know what's true. Yes, I believe in me, so you believe in you!"
   What song(s) would you like to hear in your head forever?! Music is a powerful thing!
