Earworm - the experience of a song stuck in the brain. I find myself getting earworms so often haha. My latest one is this song, I Want To Be In Fabric by Todd Edwards, particularly the part starting at 2:28. Gives me massive Freezepop vibes omg!
What are some songs that have been stuck in your head lately that you’d like to share? 😃

My job won’t stop playing this stupid pop song that has the exact same melody as Dragostea Din Tei. I think every day for the past several weeks I’ve been singing some nonsense combination of the two under my breath.
Let’s make tonight the weekend, dar nu ma nu ma iei, I don’t wanna waiiiiit
ABBA’s “Fernando” pops up in my head randomly all the time. Styx’s “Half-Penny, Two-Penny” has a phrase that leaps to mind quite often when reading news. “Justice for money, what can you say? We all know it’s the American Way.” and also “Justice for money, how much more can I pay? We all know it’s the American Way.” And when that leaps to mind the rest of the song follows. Forever (or so it seems)…
The HamsterDance song has been living rent-free in my head on-and-off for most of my life. I blame how much time I spent in arenas as a kid playing hockey.
More recently, the café I work at puts on a “French café” playlist which has about 7 different versions of “La Vie En Rose” so that’s been in my head for the past year as well.
That sure is a blast from the past.
Now I have part of a sample from a cocorosie song, ‘I got a… Ready to drop’ but I’m pretty sure I only started that today. Before it was a different song but I’ve forgotten
Coincidentally, the Perry Bible Fellowship guy just posted a new comic that’s very related:
I tend to get them for quite a long time when it happens. I once had the Oompa Loompa song in my head for a couple months. Rough time.
Now I have young kids, so they change more often now, but they’re all kids songs. A couple of Danny Go songs are currently on repeat in my brain.
I get the Oompa Loompa song stuck in my head fairly regularly. It usually only lasts for a few hours at most, but it’s frequent.

That’s definitely a unique one haha. From the 1971 movie? Do you remember which one?
Yep, that’s the one.
It’s not a song and it’s not fun and light-hearted and I’m kinda sorry if this fucks anyone’s week up.

It’s a reading of “Boots” by Rudyard Kipling, written about the Boer Wars in the late 19th century. It’s used in the trailer for the upcoming follow-up to “28 Weeks Later” to great effect, which first drew my attention.
It is possibly the most haunting thing I’ve heard.
I’m serious when I say this may fuck your week up.
That was incredible, honestly. Fantastic reading. Kind of reminded me of Son House, actually. I feel like the hammer blow rhythm of this poem would match up perfectly with some rattling resonator guitar licks.
I’m on a tracker music binge right now, and God damn there’s a good reason that Epic hired Necros to compose for Unreal and UT99. Got a lot of his tunes on repeat in my head right now.
Oh my gosh I love that style of music! Ace Combat 3 vibes in some places, so dynamic and atmospheric sounding. Those chords (?) starting at 1:50 are heavenly!
Check out his stuff some time! There’s a bunch of his music over on his ModArchive page, and he composed for a buncha games like Crusader: No Remorse, UT99, and Freelancer.
Will do!
Thanks for sharing! 😃
here’s a playlist that grows when I get a song stuck in my head: https://listenbrainz.org/playlist/bb365858-319f-4c50-b5b6-8c6a327d65ec/
I rarely listen to a song more than five or six times before I move on because I love exploring music.
However this song “No Question” by Känguru is so hype I almost use it as a mini celebratory anthem when something great happens lol
Earl Had To Die seems to pop into my head every few months for the past 15 years. “… Well it turns out he was a missing person who nobody missed at all.” https://youtu.be/Gw7gNf_9njs
Been a while since I had a proper ear worm but my most recent one was at Christmas for Bobbing Along from Bedknobs and Broomsticks
It changes all the time.
Right this second though, it’s this song from dead rising 2.Catchy! This one’s also earworm-y too. For a game about zombies, the sound track can be really lively!
