Looping

As usual I have a song stuck in my hand, but for once it's not an annoying song. I'm hearing Richard Thompson's Beeswing:

Oh she was a rare thing, fine as a bee's wing
So fine a breath of wind might blow her away
She was a lost child, oh she was running wild
She said "As long as there's no price on love, I'll stay.
And you wouldn't want me any other way"

It's lovely little song and I believe you can easily download it from iTunes; I highly recommend that you do so.

I've been listening to quite a bit of Thompson's music these days, so it was with pleasuere that I noticed his cover of Oops I Did It Again made The Telegraph's list of 'the 50 best cover versions ever recorded.' (Link requires registration.) I loves me some cover songs and some Johnny Cash, so it was nice to see his version of One on the list. And who knew Soft Cell's Tainted Love was a cover? Not me.

UPDATE: Head. I have a song stuck in my head, not my hand. Jaysus.
