    They're back....

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

          An orthopedic surgeon I know (but never worked with) listened to nothing else. He had a CD with his faves on it (late 1990s, btw).

          None of the surgeons I worked with ever requested it. I know of a heart surgeon who always listened to heavy (death) metal during his cases. I suggested to one of my partners that ABBA might be a way to get him to work faster.

          Me? When I was in charge of the music, I'd usually skip it.

            "I still have faith in you" sounds like an appropriate title for an OR. Or at least more appropriate than "Mamma mia!".

              Why not have both?

                One time, after I had established a really good relationship with a patient, I played the 3rd movement of the Chopin piano sonata.

                He laughed, a little.

                  How about "Don't Go Breaking My Heart"?

                  "I've Got You Under My Skin"?

                  "(I Just) Died In Your Arms"?

                    The opening of the Mahler #5 is always a hit.

                      Slightly better than Yoko Ono

                      But not much

                        #5? I'd have thought Mahler #2 would be good for surgeries.

                        You have not lived, suffered to no avail!

                        What has come into being must go!
                        What is gone must rise again!

                          Interesting what they are going to do with their "concerts". People do not want their memories to age, so maybe they are smart doing what they are doing.
