Subject: odd songs going through your head?

I was just wondering, does anyone find themselves humming Jazz Butcher
songs that at first (or second or third) listens don't seem the absolute
greatest songs? I find myself humming Susie and Big Old Wind an awful
lot.

Vienna Song gets my vote for best obscure JB song. "A shot of penicillin
and a gun", indeed. Actually, I like it because it alludes to so much,
and I can imagine the singer slouched in a seedy bar in Vienna getting
drunk...
