Ms.Chelle @Chellezhere (6421) • United States 27 Jul

Sometimes you wake up with the weirdest song combinations in your head. Last night, I was so sick and tired of "Crazy Train" and "Mama, I’m Coming Home." I don't even like "Mama, I’m Coming Home"—never have. But since Ozzy died,...

It seems like my niece is addicted to watching Chipmunks lately. I always hear their songs and they keep on playing in my mind. Now, I have 'sticky music' in my head. By the way, 'sticky music' has other...

I have been infected with an earworm!

Teddy @ThreeTeddies (2038) • United Kingdom 17 Jan 19

Don't be concerned, it's not as bad as it sounds! An 'earworm' is the name given to a song or tune which sticks in your mind. You know the sort of thing I mean - that meaningless jingle or catchy tune you hear and then, for some...

Pesky Earworm

Amber @AmbiePam (120547) • United States 10 Sep 18

We all know those songs that get stuck in our heads, and you can't get it out of your mind. Sometimes, it is even a jingle from a commercial, which is what has gotten me all day. Many of you could probably sing this with me: "I...

a song in my head

Elizabeth @Poppylicious (11134) • United Kingdom 8 Jun 17

I woke up this morning with a song fluttering through my head. One hour on and it's still there. It's frustrating me as I don't know all the words, so when my inner-voice/mind/whatever sings it, it stumbles and pretends. This is...

Bungalows, Earworms, and Girlfriends

DW Davis @DWDavis (25797) • United States 29 Mar 17

I'm not sure why I included the word Bungalow. The word has just been running through my head. I've had lots of odd things running through my head. Most have been songs. I guess the modern term is earworm. We used to just say we...

Inlemay @Inlemay (17712) • South Africa 18 Aug 16

The earworm of the day . . . . Bombs away, Say Geronimo - do you know the TUNE? That's how my day started today - is the tune in my head taking the lead in what I should be doing? I hope there is no war, nor any High jumping...

I bet you have had an earworm at some point in your life!

Jekca @Jessicalynnt (50523) • Centralia, Missouri 22 Nov 15

There are so many types of music out there, some better than others (sorry rap I just don’t love you). I know there is classical, rap, country, etc. etc. etc…but I more so mean generic categories like easy listening. Some music...

They call them ear worms

BarBaraPrz @BarBaraPrz (51811) • St. Catharines, Ontario 8 May 10

"An ear worm refers to any song that is so catchy, and at the same time extremely annoying, that it feels like a worm has crawled into your ear and eaten the intelligent parts of your brain so that you hum the song all day long,...

Earworm : Which song has been playing in your head over and over again?

velvetprinzess @velvetprinzess (1064) • Singapore 8 Mar 07

I wonder whether any of you have experienced a earworm before? It's that tune that simply keeps playing and playing again and again in your head and simply won't go away. For me, it was Lemon Tree at one time. How about you?
