It’s catchy and it’s been in my head for months now.

Heard some Tuff Crew in “Out of Time” the other day. I’m a new fan.

More songs about leaving.
Where Is My Mind? Pixies

Tomorrow's World Looper
See title.
Moonlight Serenade Glenn Miller
Just because. Also, Captain Jack uses it to woo the ladies.
