Embrace it.

I have learned to face my aversion to West Side Story and embrace it.

If you grew up listening to nothing but version after version of recordings you'd understand too. Every time I hear a piece of music progress like a WSS song I go into defense mode and search it out. Case in point...



At around 1:10 it sounds suspiciously close to "Somewhere." I did whatever the aural equivalent to a double-take is. But not any more. Think of this as the Ludovico Technique, but for music.

Who would have thought? Two milestones in two days.
