First off, a question: Would you want the power of Google in your brain?

Now for my post...

Have you ever noticed how hard it is to search for songs with no (or hardly any) lyrics on "teh intarweb"? Well, maybe if you're a n00b, searching for any song is tough... but yeah.

So anyway, there was this song I wanted to download that I had heard and most anyone over 21 has heard. It's kind of a disco-ish sounding song with a trumpet that you probably heard while shopping once. So, can you tell me the name of the song based on that description? Exactly, neither could Google. However, I knew that since I could basically "sing" (what do they call singing instrumental music?) this song, somebody would be able to tell me what is was called.

I was wrong. Nobody knew the title of my mystery song, even if they knew the tune...

Then, one day, a co-worker of mine heard me "singing" this disco-y tune (yes, I do that at work) and said something about "King of the Hill". Can you guess the name of the song yet... or at least the artist? Well, not unless you watch "King of the Hill" -- which I don't. This information, however, gave me something to google and presto!... I found first "Chuck Mangione" and then "Feels So Good": which happened to be the artist and song title! A groovy song indeed. Once I had this vital information it was easy enough to find and download it via WinMX.

The next song was even harder to find. Again, hardly any lyrics to go off of. I "sang" the instrumental song to the same co-worker who had heard a cheap rendition of it on "Saturday Night Live". He said something about a "Wake Up Wakefield!" skit they did on SNL with the band playing the song. From that I found that this band on the skit called "Jazz Times Ten" played the song I wanted as an introduction. From that, I found the title of the song, called "Pick Up The Pieces" from "Average White Band". That's what I call "lucky times ten".

Anyway, my point. I think the idea of being able to have the power of Google built right into my brain is intriguing; but only if I'll also be able to google someone else's brain.
