Funny, but Custard's Super Trouper, a remake of an old Abba hit, is on heavy rotation these days -- on my player and most especially in my head. It's not even the best track on the A Metal Tribute to Abba CD -- that honor belongs to Therion's Summernight City -- but it has this nice, catchy, hummable melody that makes it Last Song Syndrome material. Me, I just feel light-hearted every time I listen to it. And these days, that's as close as I can get to being happy. How badly I miss my laughing days.
