Do you know that song? : "One man went to mow, Went to mow a meadow, ...
One man and his dog,Went to mow a meadow"...

I'm asking this because when I was about 12 I had

my first English lessons at school(I'm French-Canadian)and

the teacher kept playing that song again and again (I wonder

what was the point once we had translated it once in French)and

most peoples of my generation over here in Quebec remember that song

and also the infamous "Kick the ball Sue!".


My question is:did you have to listen to that in English class?

And the reason I'm posting this is simple:

I had that silly song playing over and over in my head for

about an hour!(I think you call it an Earworm).

But I don't worry,soon the Beatles will be back as usual and replace

"One man went to mow" as an Earworm. :)

BTW what is your most common "Earworm" ?
