Those songs in your head

[Dressinggown]

Admittedly, I'm a bit unusual in the head department, but does anyone have these completely annoying bloody songs ringing round their heads all day or even worse ?

I have them. But they aren't ones I even like.

"I can't find this feeling anymore" by REO Speedwagon, keeps cropping up.

What on earth is that all about ?

[Claret Till I Die]

Do you get the whole song or is it cut off part way through

[Dressinggown]

More of a repetitive of the same chorus.

[Silkyskills1]

Never been a fan of Bob Marley but bits of his songs often occur and re-occur in my head. No logical explanation for it.

[dougcollins]

REO Speedwagon. Ha ha. Good luck with that one.

When I was driving in I had 'Hanging on the Telephone' - but not Blondie, the original version, and I've no idea who it was.

In your head?

Weirdly I’ve had wet dream by wet leg stuck in my head for weeks now, blooming annoying!

"We are the lads fre Ally's arrrrrmmmy"........since 1978

[Tricky Trevor]

It’s long been called an earworm.
I used to run to Jesus Christ Superstar and Davys On The Road Again. They be in my head for hours after I’d finished.
Caught a flight out of Cork yesterday, plane next to us had Eidelweiss plastered all down the side. Guess what I had in my head after that, nightmare.

[Tribesmen]

I had Bay City Rollers , Shang a lang for 4 or 5 days .

Ohhhh no it's in my head again .

I'd never have got that in a quiz!

[Claret Till I Die]

I'd never have got that in a quiz!

It helped by being a Blondie (Debbie Harry) fan back in my youth....

[Dressinggown]

"Moving to New York" by the Wombats has been a recent one.

To be fair, it's not as crap as most.

[Dressinggown]

During a recent GP appointment, for something unrelated, I queried this symptom.

His response was that he heard "So True" by Spandau Ballet for most of his waking hours.

[Cardclaret]

Sunshine on Leith by Proclaimers especially the rendition by Hibs fans at Hampden.

[Nonayforever]

Ohhhh no it's in my head again .

My wife's version of that is "Sh@g a lad "

[ClaretTony]

Often it’s the last song I listen to before going out but one that drove me mad for ages was Roy Orbison’s Penny Arcade after our second friendly visit to Ibrox.

We share the same earworm!! Never stopped hearing it during the pandemic! Love the clashing chords in the chorus.

To go back to the original topic, this is the single that I usually have in my head:

Meet Me On The Corner (Lindisfarne)

I’m absolutely certain that with the right lyrics, this would make a belting terrace anthem

[Juan Tanamera]

Baby, I Love Your Way by Big Mountain.
Then for no other reason than a tenuous connection, Frampton's talk tube guitar from Show Me The Way chirps in.
This can go on for hours especially if I'm on the hills walking my dogs.

Being In possession of a working fully functional active brain it filters out what to contain & what to expunge & more importantly the processing side. It's far from empty but reliable when called upon if needed. It's a gift I guess to just block & forget unnecessary stuff.

That rules me out then.

Cruel Summer -Taylor Swift on a permanent loop

[aclaretinstevenage]

No Surrender - as performed by a crowd in Spain. Saw it last night (again) and it's been rattling around all day today!

Nice video though.

No retreat

[Guller Bull]

There is a groove metal band called "In Search of Sun" that we saw support a band that we like called South of Salem earlier in the year. If you like that kind of stuff, they are superb

There is a track called Ariel that is absolutely lodged in both myself and my wifes brains and has been for months. Barely a day goes by without one of us launching into the chorus.

If your going to get an earworm that is a belter. I could live with that.

Funny that this topic has come up today as for the last bloody week I've had the line "Gonna buy a tank and an aeroplane" from John Entwistle's 'My Wife' going through my head on what seems like a permanent loop for reasons I can't quite fathom.

[Dressinggown]

The main problem seems to be those bloody tracks that you particularly dislike.

And then you have to resort to making moaning sounds on public transport or handing in your notice at work.

[whiffa]

Annoyingly I've had Pink Pony Club by Chappell Roan stuck in my head the last 24 hours, it's bloody awful as well!

[Im_not_Robbie_Blake]

Click on this if you dare! If you listen to it all you'll become a cabbage

I get some real stinkers in my head, tunes I just really don’t like. Fortunately I can’t remember any recent ones, however Claret Tony has beggared that up by mentioning the awful Penny Arcade.
