Musical Hallucinations

From the NYT

"Once, in finesse of fiddles found I ecstasy"
-T.E.Hulme, "The Embankment".

Pretty scary article for those of us who have had the misfortune of having a tune stuck in our head for days ... The article seems to suggest that insanity is just a step removed from ecstasy - maybe we'll end up like Schumann. Hey, I won't mind that as long as the tune I'm stuck with isn't some crappy advertisement jingle.
