[Music] Earworm songs

[Icy Gull]

What is currently running (probably) annoyingly around your head for much too long?

After hearing it on the radio a few days ago, I keep hearing the chorus “Tell me what is my life without you by my side” on repeat after repeat after repeat

Driving me nuts, I don’t even much like the song ffs

This song has been in my head all week. I am starting to really like it...

As I’m getting older, I’m finding myself increasingly disliking ‘current’ music. In particular, I dislike the work of Dua Lipa (my missus insists on having Capital FM on in the car) however she has the canny knack of getting her tunes stuck in my head, which is frustrating given the modern music model of churning out as much music as you can to make as much money as possible while you remain relevant.

I could swear modern music is deliberately programmed to do just that; there must be certain notes or frequencies that have a tendency to stick in your head. The shysters.

Steely Dan have an implausible amount of songs that will annelid their way inside your shell-likes. I've shared Peg because it's brilliant. Jay Graydon's guitar solo often stimulates my tear ducts, and as for Chuck Rainey's bass playing: perfection seems too trite a word.

I think that's what makes them earworms really. If you liked it, it wouldn't matter that it was going round in your head!

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

I read that as earthworm songs so...

[Knocky's Nose]

The current earworm I find myself whistling and singing all bloody day and night...

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Listen to this once and you will never get it out of your head

Earworms are fascinating when a song plays in your head that is totally unrelated to anything you've heard in recent times- even for years.

That's happened to me a lot and I'd love to know more of its psychology.

Current earworm is this Ash soundalike....

 

[super-seagulls]

This is playing in my head most of the time at the moment.

[Super Steve Earle]

This got stuck in my head one night and the chorus whirling around stopped me sleeping for hours.

 

[Insel affe]
