Of all the earworms...

Currently stuck in my head: the soaring Agnus Dei from Byrd's Mass for Five Voices. I've sung it--any number of times back in my singing days--and the 2nd alto line mostly remains with me. I've got a recording of it (Winchester Cathedral Choir, maybe?) in my car CD player and I keep hitting the replay and singing along and getting all teary-eyed and stuck-voiced at the gorgeous climax and peaceful dénouement, and it's playing and playing in my head and it won't stop.

As earworms go, it's not that bad. Seems appropriately Catholic for the day.
