Footy Finals Are Affecting My Brain

I have a fair amount of classical music on my iPod.

This is nice, but also means I occasionally notice just how much I've been affected by people using classical music for their own devious ends.

Tchaikovsky's Sleeping Beauty Ballet, for instance. Every time I hear this, I start humming "Once upon a dream..."

The William Tell Overture makes me think of Danny Kaye, and Dance Of The Hours always sounds like a letter from camp.

And I've just discovered a new one. I was listening to the Prelude from Carmen, and suddenly realised that I was thinking "We are Geelong, the greatest team of all..."

I'm so glad I'm not the only one that happens to...
=)

Incidentally, let's not forget those masters from Warner Bros - The Barber of Seville, Wagner... Bugs Bunny showed me so much...!
