is to think of as many songs as you can that have lyrics that contain the word “joy” in them.

Why? Because… well, my name is Joy. And it’s that time of year… where everywhere I go I see my name screaming at me from store windows, billboards, church signs, and junk mail, and…

at conglomerate coffee houses that can be found on literally every corner in nearly every city nationwide…

If I have to suffer a surfeit of Joy (I do loves me a little alliteration)… so do you.

One has already been quoted in the comments of my last post… “Joyful, Joyful, we adore thee…” (which was, btw, my wedding march all those years ago, because I have always been a vain little thing, even back then.)

No. You may not quote “Joy to the World.” No. Not even the Three Dog Night “Joy to the World.”

Aside from that… g’head. Let’s see how many y’all (all 3 of my readers) can come up with. You may begin.
