So what tune have you got stuck in your head today?

Since last night, coming & going & coming back, "Living Darfur" by Mattafix.

Rock my soul in the bosom of abraham
Rock my soul in the bosom of abraham
Rock my soul in the bosom of abraham
Oh rock my soul

Somehow it's now it's changed to: "we are we a-are! the youth of the na-ation!"

i woke up from a dream with china girl in my head this morning.

"I've Changed My Plea to Guilty" by Morrissey which I haven't heard in forever.

Fraggle rock theme tune, there was something about it in the metro.

today it's inexplicably "gimme some money" by spinal tap

equally inexplicable, last week it was "been caught stealing" by jane's addiction though I have not heard the song in 10 years

You’ll be my Charlie
And can be your George
Let’s bury the hatchet
Like the Beatles and the Stones

They’ll play our songs forever
On the radio
Let’s bury the hatchet
Like the Beatles
The Beatles and the Stones

I know you got a thing
For ordinary guys
But I’ve heard your records
And they sound a lot like mine

So you’ll be my Mary-Ann
And I’ll be your Yoko
Let’s bury the hatchet
Like the Beatles
The Beatles and the Stones

Like the Beatles
The Beatles and the Stones

That 'Intro-Inspection' thing, made up of 100+ intros to other songs. Especially the genius bit where 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' melds into 'Stayin' Alive'.

And do ya think I'm to blame
Teeelll me to do ya think I'm to blame
when they do it
You're never there
When they show it
You stop and stare
Abacab
Isn't anywhere
Abacaaaab

God, all fucking week. GET IT OUT OF MY HEAD.

I have also discovered I have a very close equivalent of "songs Steve.n's boss sings" sitting next to me at work getting shit stuck in my head so I am going to have to start notating his odd song-tics.

"I saw you *under breath* and him walking in the rain"

Earlier it was

'don't ever ask me where I'm from, because if you start AHSK-in then I'll be hostile actin'

the "we are no more" bit from the chorus of charmparticles 'gold plated shot'

Now its '21 SECONDS HUH HUH' but Eels is playing on my computer and I'm confused

Nearly always when this happens, it's Average White Band's "Pick up the Pieces"

Hey man slow down, slow down
Idiot slow down, slow down

x 100,000

"can't you figure it out?yeahhh,figure it out..."
sloan

"everyone knows it's Windyyyyy
And windy has stormy eyes that flash at the sound of lies!"*

*not sure of actual lyrics.

"The last time I saw you
You looked so much older
Your famous blue raincoat
Was torn at the shoulder..."

"You're standing by the grey ice water
Out in the wind, above ground out in the water
You had yourself a crazy lover
Become unfrozen, trying hard to forget her
You got a job up in Alaska
to save what the cannery pays
there ain't no way to spend it
On the arctic blast"

(the Sun Kil Moon version)

this thread is a fun read when I don't know what song it is cuz I invent some crazy melody for the lyrics and imagine it getting stuck in someone's head

O.G. - Original Gangster, by Ice-T

Absolutely no idea on God's green Earth why, but its there, on repeat.

Can I have a taste of your ice cream?
NO! Mind your own biz-ness!

I'll have a shower
And then phone my brother up
Within the hour
I'll smash another cup

but especially

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
What if this party fears two?

>O.G. - Original Gangster, by Ice-T

Funny you should mention that, the SKM has been alternating with Snoop for me today:

"Cause when I bust my nut, I'm raisin up off the cot
Don't get upset girl, that's just how it goes
I don't love you hoes, I'm out the do'"

These are the days you might fill
With laughter until you break
These days you might feel
A shaft of light
Make its way across your face
And when you do
Then you’ll know how it was meant to be
See the signs and know their meaning

Happy Freuds by The Nice

Gonna give you all I got
Gonna fuck you with my red hot cock...

I've had this stuck in my head for TWO DAYS NOW and it will not leave OVER AND OVER AND OVER ARGH

Honestly, the more ridiculous the snippet is, the harder it gets stuck in your head.

I've tried everything at this point. Private Dancer. Itchycoo Park. Nothing dislodges it. I try listening to other music, and it's fine while it's playing, but the moment I switch it off, I think "Oh, thank god that song's gone..." AND THE MOMENT I THINK ABOUT IT, IT'S BACK.

Just shoot me now. Is there any medication, prozac, ritalin, ANYTHING that can get rid of earworms?

Oh, great, now I've got 'is it peace or is it prozac?' in my head.

But as that has dislodged 'it's just a ride' I suppose I should be grateful.

FZ, "Black Napkins" -- for about a week now.

I still love it, but I wish it would go away now.

The theme song from "Dragon Ball Z Kai". Don't have kids, people. : )

liz phair's "help me mary," going on 4 days now

"nobody's supposed to be here" - deborah cox has been the song of my week. So I place my heart under lock and key, to take some time and take care of me BUT I TURN AROUND AND YOU'RE STANDING HEEREEE.

HOW
DID
YOU
GET HERE!?

IT'S MY LIFE

DON'T YOU FORGET!

CONVINCE MYSELF...

last couple of days it's been nothing but:
who sucked out THE FEELING???
who sucked out THE FEELING???

I recently had the Quantum Leap theme in there for about a week.

Motorhead - 'We Are The Roadcrew', especially the bit that goes "we are the road crew... dun dundun dundun dun!" just before the start of the following verse.

the squelchy synths from "The Things That Dreams Are Made Of" by Human League.

I talked to my friend again today
This is what he had to say:
You’re going up in smoke
going up in smoke
going up in smoke
and we ain’t got no hope
we’re going up in smoke

talkin' it up
(talkin' it up!)
on the barry gibb talk show
talkin' bout chest hair
talkin' bout crazy cool medallions
talkin' it up
(talkin' it up!)
on the barry gibb talk show

etc...

hahah! love that skit.

'Stayin Alive' came up on my ipod on the way in to work, and by the time I walked into the office it had morphed into the Barry Gibb talk show theme song, lol...I just rewatched it. <3 <3

Muppet Babies theme tune, for the past three weeks.

How did that happen? Did your memory just churn it out or were you somehow exposed?

No exposure. No muppets, no anything. I really don't know.

Just like any bowl of cherries when the cream is rising to the top
You find your real bottom line is when your spine snap crackie and pops...PAL!

why ask why?
for by the by and by, all mysteries are just more needles in the camel's eye
