I don't drive much these days: a trip to the shop or the doctor is about the extent of it, but I still have some music on tap for when I get behind the wheel. The current favourite is Judy Collins, the American folk singer. She was very popular in the early 1960s and her big album was Maid of Constant Sorrow. She's done well because she has continued to produce albums and the latest one I can find was released in 2022.
Because I have the music on a USB drive it comes on when I turn on the ignition. I have other stuff but am too lazy to change it. Consequently, I have developed an ear worm. I now go through life with the constant background of Judy Collins in my ear, even when I'm not in the car.
I wish I could change the persistent track in my head to another one. She has a beautiful song, My Father Always Told Me that We Would Live in France with an extraordinary accompaniment, but, unfortunately my earworm is locked into 'Someday Soon'. It's a great song but a bit country and western with twangy guitars and banjos, so I get tired of it ... and, it's always there, playing in the background of my life.
