Re: Earworms - what song is stuck in your head?

Herman Hermits' "No Milk Today" 's been stuck in my head for a little more than a week now!

Wow, that one is very catchy, that´s true.

I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

Saint Hughs - I Like You
Heard it on a podcast as the opening/closing music and it's so catchy.

Re: Earworms - what song is stuck in your head?

I've had a few David Bowie tunes on a rotating position as resident earworms, but I think the one that has been there the most lately is Drive-In Saturday.  It's not even fast, so I'm not sure why.  I find it's usually the upbeat catchy tunes that get stuck in my head the most, but I guess pace doesn't matter so much as the tune itself.

I woke up with it in my head on Monday morning, then my parents and I went to a show with completely different music, but without even listening to Drive-In Saturday that day it was back in my head by bedtime.

Re: Earworms - what song is stuck in your head?

I hate to call this an earworm, since it's beautiful/love it, but I recently rediscovered Rachel Platten's 'Fight Song' and it's been stuck in my head all week!     (lol... although thanks a lot, thread, like someone above said, I came here to post about that, and got reminded of 'Hello' again!) ;)
Been around over a year, but curious did it spread much over there?  Take a listen - just such a touching tune about your inner strength, with catchy, lighthearted notes:

After hearing it in one of the Three Patch Podcasts, I can't get this out of my head. What a powerful song!

It can still be an earworm, even if you like the song.  Earworm just means it's stuck in your head.  I mentioned in my post what song was stuck in my head and it was a song I like.

Re: Earworms - what song is stuck in your head?

Oh, I know!  'Earworm' just sometimes has connotations of being an annoyance (which it can be, on repetition, but that's all I meant).   Don't suppose many people have heard the song?  Of course, now it's mixed with 'Hello', thanks to someone's earlier post....  ;D

Re: Earworms - what song is stuck in your head?

Thanks Russell and GimmeCat for posting both those songs, I especially liked the style of the Susanne Sundfør one, but I'll definitely play Fight Song for my daughter, it's a great song for strong girls


My earworm at the moment is "Someone to Lava" because my daughter is learning it on her ukulele.

I remember crying when I saw the short, too.  Leave it to Pixar to bring tears to my eyes.

Re: Earworms - what song is stuck in your head?

That one doesn't need any further mention, that's for sure.  Beautiful sequence.
