I woke up with frosting on the beater in my head today

That's not the actual name of this song, but it is the name of the album, and it's also in the line that was stuck in my head this morning. Although I haven't listened to this album in a few days, it's not surprising that I woke up with this song in my head today because I have definitely been listening to this album a fair bit lately. Admittedly, I didn't really listen to this band when the album was new, even though they were peers with some bands that I did listen to. They were even label mates and share some similarities with one of my favorite bands of that era, Teenage Fanclub.

Truth be told, maybe it's because I think their band name is kind of dumb. No offense, Posies. It reminds me of a band name idea from the show It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia: The Pecan Sandies.

A friend of mine posted about this album on Facebook somewhat recently and that made me decide to give it a spin. Boy, am I glad I did! It's a fun record. It's catchy and fun power pop with a hint of grunge... just a dash. It was the early 90s, after all. With everyone stuck at home, people are posting a lot on sites like Facebook about their favorite albums, and it's been fun to check some of them out.

Frosting on the beater itself is not something I'd be into. I never liked frosting anyway and now I don't eat any sugar whatsoever. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This post is part of an ongoing series in which I document the songs which are in my head immediately upon waking. I've been making them for a long time now.

Do you wake up with songs in your head on a regular basis? What song was in your head this morning? Comment below, I'd love to hear from you!
