I love New York City. I love that there is a line around the block for a Messiah Sing and that so many came it filled up to standing-room-only proportions! We sang the entire thing, it was great. Usually they skip choruses. Of course, I stumbled through a number of them, having only sung some of them once or twice. But it was great! Thank you, West Village Chorale!

I haven’t been in a Messiah choir in about 10 years, but every time I hear the Hallelujah Chorus, I’m always doing the second soprano part either out loud or in my head (King of kings, for ever and ever).
Now tell me how to get “Rolling in the Deep” out of my head. . .
Oh man, I hate brain worms. But I get rid of them usually by singing songs I don’t particularly love.
