It’s “Eight Days a Week” by The Beatles.
This one made me a little pensive about, like, how much music there is out there, man. Because The Beatles are the biggest rock band of all time1 and this song was a chart-topping hit but I can’t for the life of me remember the last time I heard it in public. And just think about all of the great tracks out there by all of the bands that ever there were and what proportion of them any of us can ever listen to in a single lifetime.
Humbling stuff.
Anyway, here’s the tune. It’s hella jaunty!
