Stuck Song Syndrome
Well gee whiz. Now mine is Poker Face. Thanks a lot.Fucker.
Ppppoker face pppokerface. mamamamaIt's usually some song that my suitemates are singing. In my family, I'm always singing something that gets stuck in my brother's fiancee head.
A couple of weeks ago it was Xanadu.
Sometimes it's "I want to hold your hand" by the Beatles and then other times it's "I wanna grow old with you" by Adam Sandler...they are such persistent songsI used to annoy people with that song from the kid show with puppets sitting in the trees, I think the main character was lamb chops?
"This is the song that never ends.
Yes it goes on and on my friend.
Some people started singing it
not knowing what it was.
And they continued singing it forever
just because this is the song that never ends.....
yes it goes on and on my friend."
And it really does go on and on, haha!
Oh, the ultimate song from hell that causes S.S.S.Do you remember-Jay Sean
A friend of mine jumps and screams every time this track comes up (while driving), then plays it again just to spite me. Sadly I know all the words so the song stays with me all day, then I play it on my phone later to avoid withdrawal symptoms.
Stop the Chain!
when i get a song stuck in my head i'll listen to music or play y.m.c.a. in my head, which somehow gets rid of the stuck song but doesn't get stuck itself.
"Love Somebody" - Rick Springfield
Don't put another dime in the jukebox I don't wanna hear that song no more. Don't put another dime in the jukebox I don't wanna hear that song no more.
"Self Control" by Laura Branigan. My wife hummed that song this morning after a brief conversation about our daughter losing control of her glass of milk. Next thing you know, that damned song is in my head. Not that it's a terrible song, but, yeah, it's stuck in my head.

Hi Aynge! Just wanted to say good morning and...P-p-p-poker face p-p-poker face!
"Downpressor Man" by Sinead O'Connor as of late, which I don't mind a bit.

(In my neck of the woods we call stuck songs earworms)
They're earworms here too, Sarah. And mine for the last couple of days has been "Minnie the Moocher".
It's not so much what song that drives me nuts, it's when it's a song that I only really know one line of, so that one line is running over and over and over like a skipping record!

When I'm anxious I play short loops in my head instead of sleeping. For me it's not good. Is it good for you LG?
Mod
No, it's not good for me.
Just the first bit: "Postman Pat, Postman Pat, Postman Pat and his black and white cat..."
Oh good Lord this happens to me all the time...usually with songs I can't freakin' stand!The last one to get stuck in my head was Moskau by Dschinghis Khan. Its so CORNY but still somewhat catchy...here's a link

Russian disco at its finest!
That's awful. Not so much the audio, that's a bit like communist ABBA, and I quite like ABBA. Its the visual...oi!

communist ABBA *snorts back laughter* :D
I will NOT click that link. It could be catching...
I have been cured of Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga. 2013 is the year of boring songs, but I can't seem to get "Starships" by Nicki Minaj out of my head...
Sometimes "Don't speak" by No Doubt creeps into my mind
I've been haunted by "hot hot hot"...Larry!
Where on earth did that come from?
I mean, I know it's BB, but what would put it in your head?

Unfortunately at the moment I have several refrains left over from the 'event/party' down the street from where I spent part of my July 4th.The most obnoxious one that 'I know' was:

Sorry you looked now???
The rest of the 4th celebration was just fine.

It gets stuck there frequently. No rhyme or reason for it making an appearance and, once it does, it doesn't want to leave.
Ha! My phone wouldn't play it. :P. stopped it dead after a few seconds.
Who in America even knows who Kylie is?
Could be worse, could have been her sister Dannii...
