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.
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.
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.
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 🙃
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.
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.
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.
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
Right now, it's "Like Chimeras" from the Cassette Beasts soundtrack. Well, to be honest, I've got a bunch of songs from the game stuck in my head, but my brain keeps ending up on that one always.
Go Go Power Rangers! Started listening Through The Fire and Flames and somehow the algorithm sneak this one into the list, and now it stuck in my mind for a few days. Yes it's a theme song for a kids show but dang.
Right now: Witch Image by Ghost. I actually created a playlist to keep track of all the songs that get stuck in my head a while ago, and I'm up to ~36 hours of songs so far. Shuffling that playlist never disappoints, because they're all songs I've been listening to in my head anyway.
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.
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
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.
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.
Allll the time, every day, different music that vary from actual songs to random commercial clips from years ago, playing on repeat. I don't have ADD that I'm aware of, but I also don't find it very distracting, it's just THERE all the time.
Today it's "Mary Jane's Last Dance" by Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers. Why? No clue, I can't remember when I heard that song last.
For literally decades, it has been Stray Cat Strut. Although fairly recently, it has switched to Epic by Faith No More. The latter I cannot explain. The song is pretty terrible., and I’m not a fan of the band. It’s gotta mean something, right?
