Earworm of the Day: Wynken, Blynken and Nod
Jeopardy! had a clue, recently, whose question was "who are…" the Eugene Field creations turned into a memorable song or two or three. Naturally, this started a song in my head, which started the whole world – wait a minute. Let's not go down the Bee Gees highway, today.
Anyway, Field had ties to my home region (he attended my alma mater's rival college for a year), so it pleases me when local-boy-does-good gets a mention in international entertainment media. It also means earworms normal people generally don't have to suffer.
But if you grew up hearing any one of the many versions of the Dutch Lullaby in song, maybe it'll put you to sleep tonight.
