I have what I call a "Song of the Day". Every day, it seems one song wins out and is on replay in my head. At the end of the day, I realize that it was the song for that day :)
Same. Usually it's a good song, though. On the rare occasions when it's a bad one, I just need to listen to it once, immediately followed by abgood one to replace it in my head.
Today is one of those good days. Destiny Potato - "Blue Sun", if anyone wants to know.
The Hamster Dance theme, since about 1999 or so.
Witch Doctor - Ooh Eeh Ooh Ah Aah in my case. 😂
I saw a user profile earlier that said
"There is nothing worse than having a Cranberries song stuck in your head, in your heeeeeeead...."
Greasy Fried Bread from the show Reservation Dogs got lodged in my head for about a week.
Underrated show.
Catfish is life
I've had copacabana off and on for about 6 years. Lately it's 25 or 6 to 4.
Raphael's Final Act has been living rent free in my head for a few weeks now.

Always. My kids ask what song I am ‘breathing’ when I am doing chores around the house, as it domes out in my breath as a pseudo whistle without me realizing it.
Currently it is Regina Spector - Two Birds, as my eldest is obsessed.
I don't always have an earworm, and when I do the song varies. I've actually been considering logging it like a diary, because I can be stuck on the same song for days, and sometimes, weeks.
Song of the day is Vulfpeck - It Gets Funkier.
Earworm by Vulfpeck, while relevant to the topic, is good too.
How 'bout that jingle from that jewellery commercial?
Hi Ren by Ren
Ren is so underrated, what a brilliant musician.
yeah, he's my favorite musician ❤️
edit: i think it's refreshing to hear music that doesn't follow the standard production. he's a treasure.
The theme to The Littlest Hobo.
I had it for like three months.
Amazing that we're probably thousands upon thousands of miles apart on different continents and yet suddenly I fuckin hate you for making my brain go "So if you wanna join me, for a while..." and now it'll do that the whole day 🙃
Every morning since Feb 2 started, I hear "I Got You, Babe" on the radio. I dunno if it'll ever change. I don't even like Sonny & Cher.
Like I said before, time loops suck.
My brain is like a playlist with thousands of songs, playing constantly on random. At any time, you could ask me what I have stuck in my head right now and I would have an answer.
Right now, it's Come Monday by Jimmy Buffett. Yesterday, it was a song from an obscure old musical (the Fantastiks). And the day before that (for no reason I can explain) it was Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead.
I can't listen to or sing (or "sing") A Pirate Looks At Forty or He Went To Paris without getting choked up these days.
RIP Jimmy Buffett.
My parents were "Parrotheads" and despite me not really heavily listening to Buffett as an adult, my parents listened to him a lot when I was a kid and I basically still know all the lyrics by heart.
I was always fond of Pencil Thin Mustache, one of the few times Buffett seemed to sort of channel a different style of music than his usual offerings.
The only time I don't have something playing in my head is when I am actively listening to music.
At the moment its the guitar bridge from "In a Big Country" by Big Country. If I pay attention to it the song will continue to the end. But if I'm ignoring it, it'll stay constant guitar solo.
Cranberries
Now that I think about it, is “zombie” the thing in the head, or the subject of whom the question is being asked?
What’s in your head, zombie?
What’s in your head? Zombies!
Lately it's been The Movies - a song by ceilingmouse, using clips from Kitboga (a scambaiter on Twitch).
"I can see right through your disguiiiIIIIISE!" Lmao
My union has reached supermajority and we're about to go public, so I've been thinking about Pete Seeger's Union Train for the last couple weeks
The worst one I ever had was King of Spain by Moxy Fruvous. Every day for like two weeks I'd wake with it playing in my head. Know all the words now.
If left alone with my thoughts for too long, I invariably start humming the Hamsterdance song.
The last week or so it's been Too Much Too Young by The Specials. It was on the radio, once, last week and for no good reason I've been stuck with it since. Thanks brain.
It changes up two to four days.
Currently it's Witness (Hope 1), by Roots Manuva.
Last week it was The Caves of Altamira, by Steely Dan
Well this is Lemmy, so i know this will probably get at least 60% of you:
Its been a long road…
French Class - Robot Tune I saw this little animation a few days ago and since then I can't get this song out of my head. What's cool is the artist actually made this animation their official music video for the song too.
Fire and rain - James Taylor
Or sometimes Never Going Back - Fleetwood Mac
When it's driving me nuts I blast the song and sing along on repeat a few times and it stops.
Almost always, but the song changes. Right now it’s Knucklehead by Grover Washington Jr.
Only with entirely wrong lyrics, and often mixed with recent covers.
I had to look up the title but The Tide Is High, but I always struggle to make out what the words are after "I'm not the kind of girl" and my brain goes on infinite loop trying to figure it out, even losing recollection of what it even sounded like and becoming more incorrect as a result.
I'm not the kind of girl that looks up from her knees next to daaaad oh noooo ooohhhh Plus the hup hup hup hup from the black vocals remix
Yeah, this weird, orchestral rendition of All Along The Watchtower. It’s the damnedest thing.
Not every day, every living minute, but quite regularly and throughout the year, the first 4 beats of "Deck the Halls" on infinite loop in a 6/4 beat so after the 4 beats there's 2 beats silence before it begins all over again. Weirdest thing is after all these years I don't even know the text, just the melody.
Caravan Palace - Mirrors https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2y6RQFKEsc
- Song is catchy. 2) Animation is so crisp.
Bonus: 1 hour loop of the bridge. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2trHz4_aSg
So how this works is either me or my youngest son start singing or humming the song in our head and the rest of the family catches on. Repeat.
Thank fuck it's not just me, this is very much an ADD thing and sometimes it can get quite annoying but other times I'm just used to it. Right now i'm listening to jazz emu - you can't make me dance
My wife is a songwriter. I have her latest song stuck in my head.
Oooooooh this one is fun, as I just solved the riddle today! I kept getting Korn's Falling Away From Me stuck in my head, which would morph into other Korn songs, etc. I couldn't figure out why the fuck it was in my head so much. Today in the shower I had Nookie in my head which is a song I only recently remembered existed in the first place. For whatever reason, nookie morphed into In the End. And then. THEN it turned into Falling Away From Me because of the similarities of the piano ending of In the End reminding me of the guitar intro to Falling Away.
I have been going through this for days. It drives me nuts. Why on earth would Nookie be in my head? I'm 37, and I did my time with Limp Bizkit and Korn.. cut to today when my phone alarm went off before work.
I have an alarm set to play The Head That Controls Both Right and Left Sides Eats Meats and Slobbers Even Today, because the beginning is a Japanese woman absolutely shredding vocally. It is a good wakeup.
So. Today, and all last week, I've had a rapid earworm race from The Head-->Nookie-->End-->Falling Away. All the way to work in the morning.
After that it's just whatever is playing around me.
Might change my alarm.
