Oh, that's an interesting list of books. I knew MOST of them until the last quarter, when there started being quite a few I didn't know.

song stuck

"Starting today, you can hum, whistle or sing a melody to Google to solve your earworm."
I thought that Google song hum search thing has been around for a long time already? Even thought it doesn't always work so well for me. That's one of the reasons I wanted a newer phone, back when. Although if it never worked for a hum before, only for lyrics, that could explain why it hasn't worked so well... Maybe it was some other websites that let me hum the songs and search.

Usually a song stuck in my head isn't annoying for me not knowing what song it is, but for it being stuck in my head. Knowing what song it is doesn't stop it being stuck.

The 100 Best Fantasy Books of All Time

Not very impressed by this list, myself. It looks very hastily put together, and includes a number of books that are good reads but of the moment, while omitting some that have already stood the test of time. Where are Sylvia Townsend Warner, Alan Garner, Tanith Lee, Susanna Clarke?
