Forensic musicians have announced a major breakthrough in trying to figure out what exactly the guy at the delicatessen has been singing all this time. Computer-aided analysis indicates he probably has been whistling what was originally the first twelve notes to the theme of The Towering Inferno, somehow. Also it turns out there was a theme to The Towering Inferno, which goes far towards explaining why it’s been so hard to figure out what it was. Further research into just why anyone would be whistling this tune must wait for a researcher brave enough to actually ask the guy, for crying out loud.
Did you have this tune stuck in your head then? Was it driving you up a wall trying to figure it out?

Not up a wall, which is lucky as the wall could have been on fire, but it at least made me think about the idea of music.

I love the Towering Inferno

I’m pretty fond of it myself, but largely because I like thinking how uproariously badly the skyscraper’s lobby would age. Go back and look at it sometime and you’ll probably be stunned at just how of its time it was.
