Starlight is the one that usually sticks in my head. :eek:

Most recently, I had the "Dexter" theme song stuck in my head....



Also, there's actually a (non-scientific) term for this: earworm

The old commercial "I am stuck on bandaids cause bandaid's stuck on me" whenever I stick one on my kids.

Michael Jackson's "Thriller" comes to mind each Halloween.

sigh....


FYI. Replacing it with this

only makes it worse.

Song stuck in my head at the moment:

Still Alive - from the game Portal in The Orange Box for PC and Xbox 360. It's the ending credit song, and it's so addicting. Great tune, and funny.

Otherwise, there's usually a My Chemical Romance song stuck in my head throughout the day.

I once had "November Rain" by Guns N' Roses stuck in my head for about a year as a kid growing up. Yeah, totally bizarre, I know.

[QUOTE=World's King]I'm about to ruin your day...


You did ruin my day. It took me years to get that song out of my head. My kids are teens now and I thought I had at least 10 more years before having to endure kids tv. But as soon as I saw that stupid sheep puppet I started hearing the song that nevers ends in my head.

Thanks. Thanks alot.

I have Moby's ' we are all made of stars'

Moby 18

Beautiful.

Funeral For A Friend--History

Been stuck in my head for like a week

Thanks to Tophat...

Bad Brains..God of Love.

Damn that was a good concert too..1983 San Francisco.

awww damn... this song Milkshake my Kelis

this song is firmly jammed into my skull because i watched eternal sunshine of the spotless mind again last night.
it's been following me around all day like a balloon attached to my beltloop.



worst thing is that i kinda like beck with strings.
but for fucks sake, go away.

go away.


luckily, there is a brain eraser available:

Yesterday I had to resort to Machinehead to dislodge "My Sister Don't Wanna Get Drafted", from my head.

/ Don't want nobody to shoot me in the fox hole.

It is that time of year,for me,
'Angels We Have Heard on High'
I rememember enjoying this one in choir,
all 18 syllables of the word 'Gloria'.

That bubblegum song by Lifehouse entitled "First Time" sticks with me.

this song has been stuck in my head for weeks. WARNING: highly contagious. Do not play near small children or you'll have them singing it day after day!! :P

Stay~ Sugarland


I been sittin' here starin'
At the clock on the wall
And I been layin' here prayin'
Prayin' she won't call
It's just another call from home
And you'll get it and be gone
And I'll be cryin'
And I'll be beggin' you, baby
Beg you not to leave
But I'll be left here waitin'
With my heart on my sleeve
Oh, for the next time we'll be here
Seems like a million years
And I think I'm dyin'

What do I have to do to make you see
She can't love you like me

Why don't you stay
I'm down on my knees
I'm so tired of bein' lonely
Don't I give you what you need
When she calls you to go
There is one thing you should know
We don't have to live this way
Baby, why don't you stay (yeah)

You keep tellin' me, baby
There will come a time
When you will leave her arms
And forever be in mine
But I don't think that's the truth

And I don't like bein' used
And I'm tired 'a waitin'

It's too much pain to have to bear
To love a man you have to share

Why don't you stay
I'm down on my knees
I'm so tired of bein' lonely
Don't I give you what you need
When she calls you to go
There is one thing you should know
We don't have to live this way
Baby, why don't you stay (yeah)

I can't take it any longer
But my will is gettin' stronger
And I think I know just what I have to do
I can't waste another minute
After all that I put in it
I've given you my best
Why does she get the best of you
So next time you'll find
You wanna leave her bed for mine

Why don't you stay
I'm up off my knees
I'm so tired of bein' lonely
You can't give me what I need
When she begs you not to go
There is one thing you should know
I don't have to live this way
Baby, why don't you stay, yeah

Well, it's obscure to me. And that isn't the version I get stuck in my head, it's a scratchy little girl voice singing it (almost sounds like Tegan and Sara covering it) with just a music box in the background. The reason I said it was an obscure ballet song is my only exposure to it is that my sister had to do a dance to it umpteen years ago, and therefore had to play it over and over for like...two months.

I can't take it any more, where did it come from?

Copacabana - Barry Manilow.

I swear, I'm not posting this just 'cause of my avatar!


Also:



Jonathan Coulton FTW!

Gah, for some reason the Portal song dredged this song back to my forebrain - my wetware has some strange processes :)

Kaze ni naru (was in The Cat Returns, not the anime in the clip. Don't look up the english lyrics, they are kinda corny, but the song is just happy!) :hyper:

it has retuned.

The single most contagious song ever is Scheherezade by Rimsky Korsakov.... all I have to hear is the first few notes and the entire 44 or so minute song plays over and over in my brain, and I'll unconsciously whistle random medleys from it...

The funny thing is, it's not just me. One of the things my best friend and I did before he went to Vegas was whistle one of the medleys to it, and it would get stuck in our heads for hours... it worked on a former boss of mine too. Just one medley and he'd be humming it in 10 minutes or so ^_^

Oh my god, moot. Now you've got it in my head. I'm trying to get it out by listening to Dvorak, but I'm not holding out hope. I know what my mind will be doing between now and 2:30.

Right now, I have a Christmas song stuck in my head. Shocking, I know... "clap hands, it's Santa Claus... I love you I love you dslfkjasldfjbecause clap hands it's Santa Claus!"

Most disturbing. It runs through my head at the most awkward moments... *sigh*

ISTANBUL!!!!!

i had the stupid music from the game Blue Dragon stuck in my head for awhile.

Big Yellow Taxi, not even the good Joni version but the crappy Counting Crows version. All because I ate in a crappy place with crappy background music a week ago. A full week now I've been humming that blasted song.

I usually have the last song I heard in my head until I hear another song. This is the story of my life.

MAKE IT STOP!!!

Muse - Plug In Baby

Tokyo Hotel - Durch den Monson

the epicest song everrr.

Help..

or you could be stuck with this:

Adam and the Ants - Goody Two Shoes

For a full week, I was working on a video that contained the songs Eye of the Tiger, Standing Outside the Fire and We Are the Champions....those would not leave my head, so I made a cd of tunes to play in my car.
Now I can't get Rain in the Summertime by the Alarm out of my head...

Weird - Ant Music was part of this mornings hypnopompic entertainments. (Starting on a path with seeing The Sword of Bheleu on my bookshelf and ending with Ant Music just before truly awakening. One logically follows the other. Really.)

Lately this commercial's song has been stuck in my head...

You need an umbrella. Songs from Mary Poppins ought to be an effective mental cleanser.

Very interesting Cynthetiq. The only song i've got stuck in my head is blues. I wrote it, I sing it:

About a Girl - Nirvana....it's almost constant....

ring, you didn't happen to see How I Met Your Mother with the Fiero episode?



We were preparing to unpack the suitcases last night and it just jumped into my head and won't leave.

I have now...:D ...have a loverly vacation!

Cabaret- Money

stinky weaselteats-Happy Happy Joy Joy (ren and stimpy show, as if you didnt know)


yeah and the song Ring posted. that proclaimers song stays lodged in my brain.

I've had this stuck in my head for days.. but at least it's gotten me some xbox 360 achievement points :p

Not sure where it came from, but keep hearing the opening vocals.

just as we returned the convertible PT Cruiser this was playing on 104.3 WZIN BuzzRocks US Virgin Island Radio...

todays soundrtack to my life.

On and off the past month or so, Joni Mitchell, mostly doing this:

Varies, for me, but sooner or later, one of these will always show up for a day or two:

Walk Like An Egyptian - The Bangles
Pictures Of You - The Cure
Hey Jude - Beatles
Secret Agent Man - Johnny Rivers
When Doves Cry - Prince
What Is Love - Haddaway


I don't even like half of those songs....

my kid was playing "Into the night" from Carrrrrlos Santana w/ the singer from Nickelback. now I have THAT stuck in my head, which is a mixed blessing/curse. I love Carrrrrrrlos, but I hate Nickelback, especially that tool's voice.

Yeah
 

Come on people, I know I'm not the only one ...

awww dammit, I was reading the Misreading children's books thread and now I have this song stuck in my head.

Outside the Palace......all of violent femmes 3 really, but that one in particular. I only need to listen to it once every two years and that's enough.

Ryan Adams and the Cardinals - What Sin

"Whatever Gets You Through the Night". But not the whole song, just that one line. I had to go online to find it so that I could hear more and drive that one line away.

you know that goes through my head any time someone says something that I know they are in denial over...

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeello,
You gonna want me
But when you want me
It might be a different story
Heeello
You gonna want me,
But when you want me
It might be a different story

Baby, A song for every season
I got so many reasons
You're gonna wanna make it some day
Some say, boy you're always teasing
I think you best believe in
For why you've gotta drive me crazy
Baaaaaaby!

oooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, noooooooo

Excellent, I should have had that in my collection already. I have corrected the oversight.

oh god... drum circle!!!

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...q/bef1073d.jpg

now that's cool. It reminded me of a song from Fishbone's EP V.T.T.L.O.T.F.D.G.F., never knew what it meant but just that it was a song about Godzilla. Thank you for making me look up the video that explains it as Voyage To The Land Of The Freeze Dried Godzilla Farts. It's also a song that can has at one time been stuck in my head.

Neil fucking Sadaka songs and anything by the Carpenters.... I hear just a few notes and I am fucked for a week with that music in my head....

Thanks people....I have fucking "Breaking up is hard to do" in my head now.

Just the one. All. Day. Long.

The theme to Hannah Montana. I hear it non-stop at my house. It used to be anything by Laurie Berkner.

Pure evil.

edit - see ? now I keep this page open while surfing TFP... classic

Not sure where it came from, but this one, not Air Supply's. :confused:

battles - atlas

Whatever the ending credits song from Death Proof is. That gets stuck in my head instantly. Still is.

dammit you reminded me of this song and it popped right in...

"That's it! I have had it with these motherfucking snakes on this motherfucking plane!"


besides Maja Ivarsson is sexy in the vid... :)

Oh, I'm ready for it
Come on, bring it.
Oh, I'm ready for it
Come on, bring it.
Oh, I'm ready for it
Come on, bring it.
Oh, I'm ready for it
Come on, bring it.

Maybe the lunar eclipse brought this one on?

dammit...this song stuck in the craw as a teen for many more than just a single day. I must find something else to play to rid myself of it.

Mike and the Mechanics - Living Years

I have this song rolling in my brain, your Say song just underlined it more. I have been avoiding calling a very sick relative, I need to pick up the phone and call her now. thanks.

The theme song from CHiPs.

as I was listening to my ipod in Florida, I kept hearing, "Hey Mr. DJ" and I couldn't figure out where I was hearing it from. I couldn't find a track that had that.. until I got back and figured out that I had not transfered Cobra Starship's debut album. It's still rolling around in my head, and I've been sampling many different tunes all day.


Hey Mr. DJ

I had this god-awful song in my head all day at work.

why is it that Carpenters songs seem to be easily stuck in the head?

I listened to Stephen Lynch this afternoon and I've had "If I were gay" stuck in my head all night. Not that there's anything wrong with that... but the song gets old after a while.

I'm not sure. I mentioned the song being stuck to one of my coworkers and ten minutes later she complained that now it was stuck in HER head. I had to apologize profusely.

Here's a song that got stuck in my head thanks to my wife. She was watching "Legally Blonde the musical" and the song "Oh my God, Oh my God you guys." comes on and I catch myself singing it days later. So now when my wife gets mad at me she'll sing that song!! Grounds for a divorice!!! Totally
