As Edsger Dijkstra, Don Knuth and, doubtless, a number of other awfully brainy chaps have observed, Computer Science is not much about computers as we know them and is about as much of a science as numismatics. This is a prime example of what is in the general populace known as a misnomer. Another prime example, though not as humongous in scale, is something I chose to call "Song of the Week" - it has always been more than one song, and if it seems like a week since the previous one, it should be the case that a certain European neutrino did indeed give his photon pals quite a run.
So that I may retire to the safety of my bed before the swarm of mosquitoes I seem to be seated in has the opportunity to finish its bloody business (pun intended) with the forearm, I embrace brevity. Here are two for now.

Jug of Punch, as performed by The Clancy Brothers (and Tommy Makem, I think).
Speaking of folk songs, here's one from Liverpool.
Maggie Mae, as performed by some rock band from the aforementioned locality.
I believe there are stories behind how this song got into Let It Be that you can read somewhere.
