Not titling this with song lyrics; you're welcome.

According to my ~highly scientific~ poll in my last post, approx. 30-40% of all Dreamwidth users have had songs from Les Miserables stuck in their heads ever since the movie came out.

I don't suppose those of you who are getting more active in the fandom would consider, as a kindness, "earworm warnings" for any quotes from the lyrics (including song titles)?

//just kidding

//mostly

//although it would be nice to be able to go more than 24 hours without hearing the people sing in the background of all I do. I've kind of forgotten what that's like.

Although I have gotten quite a lot of cleaning done while unable to concentrate on anything but listening to the soundtrack on repeat, so there's that.

(I tried putting on "Once More With Feeling" instead today; it only took about half an hour before One More Day was back.

I haven't tried Cabaret yet; that's the nuclear option.)

ETA: Warning: lyrics in comments.

Actually, I think some of the Inca dragons in Crucible of Gold do...although I am so underwhelmed with Crucible that I stopped reading a few pages from the end back in December and still haven't finished it.

I started giving up on Temeraire around Victory of Eagles, I think. I'm just about done unless the characters I care about actually start appearing in the books again.

I'm just REALLY CURIOUS how the alternate Napoleonic Wars of Temeraire would affect the events of Les Miserables in Temeraireverse....
