Carol and David, et al Trivia!! Without looking it up. . . What was Rocky Raccoon's original name in the song? :) (I think being a music major may have "messed with my brain" in some good ways). Tim

In that I'm a wee tad older than many/most of you, I have many more LP band-shift memories than do the rest of you. Perhaps the Beatles (because I played the albums so frequently) provide the best examples of anticipatory conditioning or so I guess that's what it is. To this day, one of my favorite quotable lyrics from the Beatles is also a part of Rocky Racoon, i.e.," Her name was McGill, but she called herself Lil, but everyone knew her as Nancy." Doggone, they were good! D On Mon, Nov 28, 2011 at 12:36 PM, Carol DeVolder <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: I experience this--and with a Beatles song, too! Rocky Raccoon fell back in his room only to fi...ble. I doubt that will ever leave my head! I also played albums over and over, and now I use shuffle on my iPod, and the order always trips me up--I expect to hear certain songs after others.

Like many people, I was a big fan of the Beatles, so I'll use them as an example. Now that I've been buying Beatles music, I often find when I play their songs I get to certain places in the music and I EXPECT it to skip, or at least I have a very clear memory that the song used to skip at exactly this point. Not sure where this fits into psychology other than memory in a broad sense, but I thought I'd throw it out there. Other people experienced this? Michael Michael A.
