Song in your head during practice?

Does anyone else ever mentally hum a tune during swim practices and/or races? My personal favorite, when I am trying to summon energy from my exhausted body, is the 1812 Overture--I try to time it so the cannons start firing towards the latter part of the race. I'd be interested to hear what goes through other peoples' minds as they swim, musical or otherwise.

    Hey, that's a really interesting question... i usually start playing songs through my head if i'm swimming anything more than 200 metres, i start to completely loose focus, usually just playing the last song i heard. Thats y i hate long distance swimming, i'm much more of a sprinter, so i only keep very well focused for the 50m, 100m, and 200m max! anything longer than that for me is just a waste of time. but then again, i'm good at wat i do.. :)
