Quick, what's your current earworm?

For 56 years it’s been Arthur Brown’s “Fire.” My brain will clear out and I’ll get:

I AM THE GOD OF HELLFIRE!! AND i BRING YOU ---- FIRE!!! (nee-nee-neeeeee!!)
Tape slice. Rewind.

I AM THE GOD OF HELLFIRE!! AND i BRING YOU ---- FIRE!!! (nee-nee-neeeeee!!)
Tape slice. Rewind.

Repeat until insane.

I know how it got this way. My uncle bought the 8-track, and played it to try to scare me out of his room. I thought it was funny. A couple of years later he gave it to me and I played it to death, and so a lifelong earworm was born.

“Oh, What a Beautiful Morning”.

Sigh.

As usual, no idea of what prompted it.

mmm

Due to another thread, it’s the word “socialism” sung to the tune of The Hallelujah Chorus. Which is odd. Typically, I hear it with the name “Sacramento.”

The Silver Jews – “Random Rules” (starts at 0:17)

thas wut i do - Aghast

definitely have to put the blame on YT’s algorithim, now everytime something crazy is happening, this song just plays in my head nonstop.

Chicago (1969-1977)

I always try a random 6,000 song playlist, but after hitting NEXT so many times, I’ll listen to them, and like today, the 1974 concert (King Biscuit Hour). There’s a remastered audio version on YouTube which is great. The band was on fire.

Jeff Dayton, a musician that was the bandleader for Glen Campbell for many years, was a guest on a podcast I listen to. He sang Wichita Lineman on the podcast. I’ve never been a Glen fan and never really liked that song but part of the chorus I love.

And I need you more than want you
And I want you for all time

So that’s been playing in my head since I heard it early this morning. At least it’s something I like!

I Believe My Dick Can Fly by Snoop Dogg and Blowfly.

I know y’all are going to look it up.

Rock Bottom by UFO. One of the most under rated guitar solos ever recorded. Michael Schenker could have been one of the real greats of the guitar if his ego didn’t get in the way.

“Channel Z” by the B-52s. I keep hearing Cindy screaming “Hamburger ads pop up in my head!”

Could be worse.

Can somebody get rid of the Streets of London for me? Aaaaarghhh!

Van Morrison’s “Moondance”, because I’m learning it on piano.

mmm

Black Betty by Ram Jam

Lately I’ve seen numerous videos of people listening/watching this song/video for the first time and being blown away. And I just saw one this morning.

For some reason “B Minor Medley” by Leahy.

This.

Make it stop.

The Jardiance commercial song.

“It’s the little pill with a big story to tell…”

Somebody please remove my ears.

mmm

Saw the movie “Wonka” when it came out. A few days ago while on a long drive
this song came into my head and wouldn’t leave. To pass the time I came up
with some new lyrics:

Oompa, Loompa, doompa-dee-do
I’ve got a brand new puzzle for you
Oompa, Loompa, doompa-dee-dee
If you are wise, you’ll listen to me

What do you do with that song in your head?
Always playing 'til you wish you were dead
And how can you get it out of your brain?
Before you will become quite insane

I don’t think you’re wanting that

Oompa, Loompa, doom-pa-dee-da
Having an earworm is not that bad
Embrace it with happiness too
Like the Oompa, Loompa, doompa-dee-do!

“Walk Away Renée” by The Left Banke.

Just finished with “Laugh, Laugh” by The Beau Brummels. Love the harmonica.

For a few months it was this …

but that has now been replaced by …

Both excellent tunes so i’m ok with it.
