Some songs stick in my head for weeks at a time, and I've decided it's time to reward those songs with an award, in thanks for the hours of joy they've given me. David Clayton-Thomas wins this week's Earworm Award for And When I Die, a favorite from the 1960s recorded by Blood, Sweat & Tears and written by Laura Nyro. This link will take you to the original version; today's video is from the '80s, proving that the great songs really hold up over time. For reasons I can't explain, this one always makes me smile.
