Alexander - Awake My Body

THE GREATEST SUMMER SONG (at the moment)

Unfortunately I had "sweet dreams" by eurythmics stuck in my head last night

Here's an article on the science behind songs getting "stuck in your head"

http://www.livemusicguide.com/blog/columns/earworms-the-science-behind-songs-that-get-stuck-in-your-head.html


"Listening to music triggers the auditory cortex, the region of the brain where auditory information is processed. Research at Dartmouth University discovered that when part of a familiar song is played, the auditory cortex is activated and will automatically fill in the unheard portions of the song. This "autocomplete" compulsion is known as a “brain itch“ or "cognitive itch.” Like any itch, the brain itch can recur relentlessly, and the mind-numbing repetition of the itch is referred to as an "earworm." It embeds itself in our minds and forces us to hear a particular tune over and over and over."

also, this is what i had to deal with for hours last night

Camel Thorn Trees in Dead Vlei inside the Namib-Naukluft Park, Namibia.

"Dead Vlei is a white clay pan located near the more famous salt pan of Sossusvlei, inside the Namib-Naukluft Park in Namibia. Also written DeadVlei or Deadvlei, its name means "dead marsh" (from English dead, and Afrikaans vlei, a lake or marsh in a valley between the dunes).

Dead Vlei is surrounded by the highest sand dunes in the world, the highest reaching 300-400 meters (350m on average, named "Big Daddy" or "Crazy Dune"), which rest on a sandstone terrace. The clay pan was formed after rainfall, when the Tsauchab river flooded, creating temporary shallow pools where the abundance of water allowed camel thorn trees to grow. When the climate changed, drought hit the area, and sand dunes encroached on the pan, which blocked the river from the area.

The trees died, as there no longer was enough water to survive. There are some species of plants remaining, such as salsola and clumps of Acanthosicyos horridus, adapted to surviving off of the morning mist and very rare rainfall. The remaining skeletons of the trees, which are believed to be about 900 years old, are now black because the intense sun has scorched them. Though not petrified, the wood does not decompose because it is so dry."
