I think maybe it feels sing-songy because, at least to me, the melody seems so familiar. The first time I heard it in 1994, I thought...that sounds exactly like another song. And I'm still trying to place it twelve years later. Anyway, what good is a song if it's not sing-songy? Such strange terminology. I mean, you wouldn't go up to a Picasso and say, "It's kind of paint-paintingy, isn't it?"

Aw come on, Aeij, don't semantic out. You know what sing-songy means. Nursery rhyme-niscent.

Yes, I understand that. I'm not semanticing out, I'm just wondering the what the strange etymology of that phrase must involve.

Yeah, "singsong" is a pretty stupid phrase.
