Not-so amusing amusement parks — 7 Comments

  1. The bug is eternal for me, I fear. When I went to Disneyworld with my daughter long ago, that ride was her favorite. I was assigned to go with her on it… all eight times.

  2. Oh, my dad hated it: for years he would wake me up in the morning to go to school singing in a nasaly falsetto: “It’s a small world after all! It’s a small world afterrrr alllll!”

    But he liked DisneyLand and World….. So do I….

  3. As for clearing earworms: I find that the third movement of Mahler’s Ninth Symphony (the Rondo-Burlesque) usually does the trick. Of course, it give me an image some someone holding a drinking party on his way to the gallows … but the earworm is gone.

  4. I just listened to the recovered piano rolls recorded by Mahler himself. Strange to listen to the tempi, the fortes knowing that it was the master himself who gave his impression of his music.
