Does a song from years ago suddenly pop into your head?

I know it does for Four walls, but does it happen to everybody else too? Today out of the blue, haven't heard it for years Tanya Tucker's song Delta Dawn popped into my head. I am cruising down the road singing this at the top of my lungs. Good thing nobody else was around, I had trouble with the high notes. So funny, haven't heard, haven't seen anybody perform it, was just there in my head. I still know at least half of it too.

The song "Hot Stuff" sung by the late Donna Summer does make me dance by myself in private of course.

Well, since you already know my answer….
Yes, I walked back to the car from Hoagy Carmichael’s grave singing “Georgia on My Mind.”

@snowy22315 used to be different in the 90s. You'd either hope the radio plays it or will need to buy the cassette or cd.

Yep, that is nice about digital music you can call up what you want to listen to, when you want to hear it.

Last week I heard the Beatle's song, Carry that Weight performed live with an amazing pianist, and do you think that I can go one single day without humming it. Even the babies are singing it, I took a video of it and they love to watch the pianist playing the baby grand.

@Juliaacv Yes, my mom played it on the radio too. She was the C& W fan.

@snowy22315 I remember hearing my Mom play Delta Dawn on the radio in the summertime when she would be driving me to swimming lessons, and every so often I will remember that song, and it will get stuck in my head.

It does for me.
It's always Salsoul Nugget
And I get goosebumps
And want an ecstacy tablet
It's been like this for 12 years since I stopped taking ecstacy
And it's usually on a wednesday
It happened yesterday
So I put the song on full blast in the garden and Yvonne asked if I was having ecstacy.with drawal

That definitely happens to me. I hear lots of songs that were popular when my older sister was a teen, or church hymns, or so on and so forth. Yes, it often happens when I drive, and if I am alone I sing it out. It makes a drive go by a little faster.

Yup. All the time. Some songs I haven't heard in decades; but they will pop into my head.
