Anyone else have a song playing in their head 24/7? If so, what song? - eviltoast

I always have music in my head and I was wondering if other people have something similar.

    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 saw a user profile earlier that said

    “There is nothing worse than having a Cranberries song stuck in your head, in your heeeeeeead…”

        yeah, he’s my favorite musician ❤️

        edit: i think it’s refreshing to hear music that doesn’t follow the standard production. he’s a treasure.

    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.

    Song of the day is Vulfpeck - It Gets Funkier.

    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.

      I can’t listen to or sing (or “sing”) A Pirate Looks At Forty or He Went To Paris without getting choked up these days.

      RIP Jimmy Buffett.

      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.

    Every morning since Feb 2 started, I hear “I Got You, Babe” on the radio. I dunno if it’ll ever change. I don’t even like Sonny & Cher.

      Now that I think about it, is “zombie” the thing in the head, or the subject of whom the question is being asked?

      What’s in your head, zombie?
