That song is actually called 'Can't get you out of my head' and apparently you couldn't get it out of yours!

Can't abide Ivor Cutler. I once set off into the Cairngorms with that droning repetitive Kylie Minogue song repeating endlessly in my head. The one that goes "La-la-la, la-la-la-la-la..." ad infinitum, ad nauseam. Some years later I stood outside her apartment in Sydney, wondering if I could get away with throwing a brick through her window in revenge... :shock:

Maybe Bonesaw is more your thing. :lol:

The iPod always comes with me when I'm out walking, but I usually only turn it on when I know I've got a long stretch ahead of me where I'm not going to need to do much navigating. Plus, it's useful when I need helping drowning out my internal monologue, which usually goes something like this: "Are we there yet? My feet hurt. I'm hot/cold. Are we there yet? I'm hungry. Are we there yet?" :lol:
