Stricken with "Earbug," Google Leads to Miraculous Recovery

About a month ago, while shopping in a store, I heard a new song. I immediately realized that, central to the tune sat an older hit. I couldn't place either but the melody remained alive and started eating its way through my head. Last week, in another store and out of state in Ohio, I caught a few words from the new hit, "on the floor" and "Morocco." Google led me right to Jennifer Lopez's creation "On the Floor," but a little further searching brought me to the wonderfully rewarding and well-researched piece by Ben Zain on the progression of a famous tune through various hands and lands.
