A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

The song "Home on the Range" is essentially a limerick. Therefore, any limerick can be sung to the tune of "Home on the Range". (lemmy.world)

There was a young woman named Bright.
Whose speed was much faster than light.
She departed one day,
In a relative way,
And returned on the previous night!

This is set to music at the end and beginning of the Alphaville album Afternoons in Utopia.

Enough. At first I was like, "Yeah, I love Alphaville!" However, upon further reflection, it occurred to me that I had confused Alphaville with two separate Austin-based bands, Alpha Rev and Storyville.

I'd did check out that album and sure...
