Not so quiet earworm

John Legend's "All of Me" has been on repeat for two days while I'm at work. I heard it at my cousin's wedding last weekend and it's been stuck in my head since. But what a beautiful song! Now don't start judging, but I don't really listen to the radio except when I'm in the car (I don't watch much television either, but that's another story for another day), so I'm very out of touch with new hits and chart toppers. Apparently "All of Me" has been a number 1 for weeks, and for good reason!

So then I started to google John Legend, and found out he's quite the brainiac. I must say I was pleasantly surprised. He got accepted at Harvard, offered scholarship to some other college I can't recall, but decided to read Literature at Penn.

Apparently "All of Me" was inspired by his relationship with his wife (recently married, after dating for 7 years). How very romantic and sweet. Cliched somewhat, but all girls are a sucker for these things.

There's just something about men who can play the piano really well. Takes my breath away....
