Girl, You Make Me Lose My Mind

Is it very bad that I am watching one of my dodgy aweseome true crime shows while I eat my lunch and singing Frankie Valli and The Four Season's 'Sherry' as the detectives try to find what would have been a fatal wound on the decomposing corpse of a murder victim by the name of Sherry who was left for dead on train-tracks (and was later run over)

I was pretty gullible as a kid, but I never had anything as bad as the train episode happen to me.
