Just the one parsing query :-  Source of music containing a boring song in idyllic setting (7) A?C?D?A.  Okay, so it's obviously ARCADIA (idyllic setting), but the only parsing I can see is CAD (compact audio disk - supposed to be "a boring song"??) inside ARIA (supposed to be "Source of music"??).  I must be missing something.  Help, please.

I think the CD, compact disc, is 'source of music' and it has A inside, 'containing a', Aria is the song. I think 'boring' means the CAD bores, goes inside, the aria.

Isn't it slightly simpler parsing

 

Source of music - ARIA - contains A boring CD, as in A going inside CD

Ignore me - you're right and I'm not!
