View Full Version : Tunes that stick in your mind.
extaxman 08-07-2008, 19:29 Am I going mad or does this happen to everybody?
I've noticed that I get tunes in my head for days on end and I can't get rid of them. The last one was "The Campbells are rocking the blues away" - I can only put this down to a thread on here I read about the Earl of Wortley, I think his group used to do it. The latest one is "Bee bop a lulu" no idea where this came from.
arachnophobe 08-07-2008, 19:32 I had "Nellie the Elephant" in my head today. I have no idea why, I haven't heard it since I was about 5! :confused:
I had that in my head the other day arachnophobe, who knows why!!
Got the flippin song in the Boots advert in my head at the moment. grr!
I've got some crazy Axwell mix of Adele's Hometown in my head. I need to get dancing!
EdnaKrabappe 08-07-2008, 19:34 Oh god no i constantly walk round with a song in my head.
The other day it was Hanson's mmmbop
Today it is Rachmaninov's flight of the bumblebee ... the right famous bit...
and some song from the play at work. Also the when you know the notes to sing bit from Doe a deer (sound of music) also work!
Womerry2 08-07-2008, 19:44 You are lucky.
I have been hounded by the Latvian Pirate Song ever since Eurovision. It is dire but very, very persistent ...
Jabberwocky 08-07-2008, 19:47 Welcome to my world.
Each day theres some tune rattling around and around and around around and around and around around and around and around around and around and around around and around and around in my head and ITS DRIVING ME MAD!
MAD!
Aparrantly its supposed to be a sign that youre over tired and... actually for once there isnt a tune in my head thats tormenting me.
Its quite refreshing.
Ah great Jabbers, guess whats in my head now......!

Nellie the Elephant is messin' with our minds! :o
I also get the annoying slimfast ad song in my head every time I see jabbers' signature! :gag:
arachnophobe 08-07-2008, 19:49 Ah great Jabbers, guess whats in my head now......!
THE SLIMFAST AD!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o:o:o
I'm the same, usually it's songs I've heard in my local Spar but today it's been the new Thomas the Tank Engine theme tune because my son watched it this morning and I've still got it in my head now. I was singing it earlier at the top of my voice while I was doing the pots!!! :hihi: "They're two, they're four, they're six, they're eight, shunting trucks and hauling freight............. " It's really quite addictive!!! :banana:
Jabberwocky 08-07-2008, 19:50 Ah great Jabbers, guess whats in my head now......!
Images of me naked and eating a whelk...?

That sounds like something I could introduce at the Mad Stad next season (after changing a few words about trains :hihi:).

All with different roles to play, round Tidmouth sheds and far away :hihi: :D
EdnaKrabappe 08-07-2008, 19:58 Now it's changed to Mark Ronson's Just... particularly the instrumental bit inbetween verse one and two.... I am a walking jukebox.
Antics^^ 08-07-2008, 20:06 Peter, Bjorn & John - Young Folks is annoyingly catchy, as are all the radio jingles on Real Radio, Hallam Fm etc.
The songs that stick in my head aren't nessarily good or even anything that I'd ever listen to.

God before Young Folks came out for the second release, I was humming it all the time.... then it got tons of radio play and i don't feel the need to hum it anymore! :rolleyes:
Mine's now gone to Get together by Madonna as it was the title of the thread below this one which is now intertwixted with the whistle from P, B&J. :hihi: with a mix in of Bloc Party's Flux.

Down the hills and round the bend, Thomas and his Friends!!

Wait til he gets a little bit older then it'll be...

All of these songs are ecletic enough on their own. I got confused the other day when Flux came on, started singing Honest Mistake by the Bravery embarassingly for me. :shakes:
Have a couple of listens to Give it To Me by Madonna, another one that claws itself on to your think tank.
Antics^^ 08-07-2008, 21:02 Moon-Pig.com is going round and round as is the "Dad Pants" song.

I've had this POO (http://youtube.com/watch?v=If0lrwEzdBY) going round in my head for days....don't know how it got in....but its awful....catchy but (c)rap!!!!!
WHO IS SHE?????
Currently due to the stage show and the film I can't keep "Mama Mia" out of my head
Unfortunately the only lyrics I can recall are the childish remake - "Diarrhea! Here it comes again, ooh ooh pouring down my left left leg...."
Jabberwocky 20-07-2008, 10:56 Im in hell.
I thought the wiggly worm song and the speckled frog horror was bad... I suffered for years with those hideous dittys.
Theyre nothing when compared to this though (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGPqtW-Gc98) its been stuck in my head for a solid THREE BLOODY WEEKS!
Its in there now..... driving me mental.
Oh god.
