T.W.A.E.

There's a list of well over 100 songs that see regular rotation across almost all radio stations, that when I hear them, I hear different lyrics in my head.  Sometimes I sing them out loud, sometimes I keep it to myself.

My Sharona - The Knack

Beat It - Michael Jackson

Bad - Michael Jackson

I Think I'm Alone Now - Tiffany (really The Shondells)

American Pie - Don McClean

These are only but a few examples, and I am of course referring to a common symptom that most children of the 90's experience, 'The Weird Al Effect.'

I am also pleased to announce that my wife and best friend will be attending my first and possibly only Weird Al concert tonight, oh happy day.

Cheers childhood Randy!
