Earworms (Song Stuck In Head)

One of the drawbacks to playing songs on the radio is the danger of earworms – getting a song stuck in your head all day.

You try to forget it, but then minutes later find yourself humming, singing or whistling it.

Some, like Escape by Rupert Holmes you don’t even have to hear the song, you just have to hear someone mention Pina Colada.

So many of Lady Gaga’s songs cause earworms according to psychologists who have studied the “song stuck in brain” syndrome.

P-p-p-Poker Face or Rah Rah Bad Romance.

Then there is the one that warns you – Kylie Minogue and Can’t Get You Out Of My Head.

Bohemian Rhapsody, Oh Sherrie, Don’t Stop Believing. Those are big trigger songs for me.

What song gets stuck in your head?
