I hate to admit it, but all weekend, this has been going through my head:
That's bad enough, but what is even more shameful is that I've been enjoying it!
Yes, it is overplayed. Yes, it is an earworm. But it is kind of fun. It makes me laugh. I love the beginning, preparing you for the imminent arrival of the waltz. It's like a sunrise, with the rays of sun just peeking above the horizon. You watch them get brighter and brighter, until the sun is up and the waltz begins in all earnestness.
The ten minutes of music varies enough that it keeps you from getting too bored. There's even a brief minor section. It is definitely a waltz, and makes me want to dance around the house (ONE-two-three ONE-two-three) -- albeit without even a hundredth of the skill of the dancers in this video. Luckily since I am the only one at home I don't embarrass myself.

I love that one, too! I remember one night I tried to play the whole thing on the flute, just from out of my head. I did OK! I'm sure it sounded terrible though.
