I’ve had the Stones’ song “Under My Thumb” in my head for a couple of days. It was someone on this board who put it there. Whoever you are, I hate you!
Of course, I shouldn’t be complaining. I had Cher’s “Dark Lady” in my head for days before the Stones took over. I guess someone saved me from myself.
What’s your recent earworm?
Everything is food, food, food!

Great song from a talented but depressing fucking bastard who went and killed himself.
Poison. Dunno who it’s by originally but this is the cover that’s stuck in my head.
Well, thanks to you I know have Cher’s “Dark Lady” stuck in my head. But it alternates with “Ode to Joy” because I’ve been trying to play that on the piano*.
*Actually, it’s an iPhone.
Alice Cooper. And this post put Alice’s version in my head.
Don’t worry, it comes and goes.
Awesome, but now I think I have a new earworm.
Second verse, same as the first!
My bologna has a first name, it’s O S C A R…

Protip: I’ve found a cure for earworms. Find a song from a completely different musical tradition (Asian, say, or Native American-- I use a Navajo hymn), and sing that to yourself a few times. It’ll displace the earworm, but will be unfamiliar enough to not get lodged in its place.
I’m a regular watcher of Dancing With The Stars (don’t judge me!) and a couple of weeks ago one of the couples danced to this song. It keeps popping into my head at random moments. Please, make it stop!
I was never a big Devo fan, but I’ve been hearing a lot of Devo in my head lately. Can’t explain it. This is my latest infection, and the lyrics confuse and intrigue me.
Gates Of Steel
Ha, I just got one lodged in there and bad.
The Sony Playstation 4 commercial’s version of Lou Reed’s Perfect Day has been echoing around upstairs.
As always, it is the piano. I looked up the chords two days ago and will probably be playing it (poorly) by the beginning of next week.
Here’s the original version:
Weird video. The singer sings the chorus correctly (“Your lips are venomous poison”) but the writing hand substitutes “bitterness” for “venomous.”
Opening credits music to Buffy the Vampire Slayer. The husband has been watching reruns in the morning as I’m getting ready for work lately, and it gets stuck in my head all day.
Thanks to SOMEBODY on the Dope, I have “You have to fight, for your right, to paaaaaaaaaarty!” in my head. :mad:
and we’ll never be rooooyyyaaaaallls
