View Full Version : Do you have songs stuck in your head all the time?

I seem to have a song stuck in my head everyday for most of the day. Surprisingly it isn't annoying (unless it is a song I don't like.) Sometimes it is because I am bored and it can be somewhat entertaining to play songs in your head. Other times somebody says the name of a song or the line from a song and it gets stuck in my head. Today somebody mentioned "Hard day's night" and it started playing in my head for a few minutes. Then it changed to some other Beatle song for an hour. ("I'm so happy just to dance with you") Then for a few minutes it turned into a smiths song.:crazy:

If ever there were a phenomenon as official as "God answering a prayer or inquiry" it is when he places a song in your head. So ask yourself what questions you've had and assume the song is a clue to the answer. He's cool like that. :p

Yes, I always seem to have a song running through my head. I do get quite caught up on repeating a specific line/lyric or even one word from the song...and that can drive me a little crazy.

Yep. Currently it's 'let's fall in love and run away from here' by ballboy.

This morning I woke up with Sade's "Never as Good as the First Time" so I hope that's not a message from the Almighty.

I always have music in my head. I used to hear unlikely musical pairings in my mind, like Bob Dylan singing Lesley Gore's "You Don't Own Me."

Yes I do!!! Usually it's just a line of a song or guitar solo that just repeats itself again and again.....

"Oliver Sacks, author of The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat and An Anthropologist on Mars, discusses the concept of "brainworms", why certain songs and bits of music seem to lodge themselves in our brains. The story related in the video comes from Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain, Dr. Sacks's latest book. For more information..."

I always ask my friend who does an amazing Michael McDonald impression to sing Nirvana songs in his voice. :D It's funny as hell.

That's hilarious! Actually, McDonald could cover "Polly" - it fits his voice, oddly enough.

Yeah including songs I heard on the radio years ago and I don't even know who they're by or what they're called.

Oh yeah, pretty much constantly. Today it's mostly been 'The Light Of Day' by the Divine Comedy, but now it's the This Morning With Richard Not Judy theme tune. :p I very rarely have songs stuck in my head that I don't like; mostly because I very rarely listen to the radio, only my iPod/CDs and tracks on the internet, and so all the dross tends to just pass me by anyway.

Oh my god, it's Robby!

That is a nice song to have stuck in your head. Whenever I hear that song I have to swing my hips like Morrissey. It probably ends up looking like the way the other guy in the music video dances.

I use to love to karaoke that song, afterwards I usually had the courage to walk up and talk to a girl :blushing:

I've had "Peanut Butter Jelly Time" in my head for weeks since Jelly is my nickname.
And now...
I guess something "Miserable Lie" by The Smiffs :)

What's Peanut Butter Jelly Time? That reminds me of an episode of Family Guy when someone (I think it's the dog) dresses up as a banana and says that over and over while standing at someone's door.

That's funny. I used to get that song stuck in my head whenever anybody mentioned songs being stuck in heads.

Now it's "Save a Prayer" by Duran Duran and it's making me feel melancholy. I need some happy brain music.

I hate that. I while ago one of my neighbors kept playing "Boom Boom Pow" by the Black Eyed Peas. He would play it over and over for up to an hour. I would laugh though because it annoyed my sister more than me and it was funny.

The worst part is he keeps singing along to the music. Just awful...
If only he sang AND LOOKED like Morrissey...
