"If I Can't Have You" has been haunting me on and off for a few weeks now. :shrug:

2. I've had "Five-O-Clock World" by the Vogues on and off for about 3 weeks.
Not every day, but frequently, usually if I'm taking a walk or going somewhere.

3. Yep. Currently it's "Wizard In Black" by Electric Wizard.
There's probably only 3 or 4 people here at DU who know that song, so I think I'm safe there...lol.

But it's disconcerting to the other riders at the bus stop when I all of a sudden break into:

"I AM A GOD! I AM THE ONE! INTO THE CHAOS, SEE MY TIME HAS BEGUN! YEEEEEEAAAAAHHHHHH...!"

:headbang:

5. I've got "She's Not There" by the Zombies for the last two weeks.
It seems to be one of the more difficult songs to shake.

I scrolled down slowly so I wouldn't see the name and for it to then get stuck in my head. But noooooooooooo, you started with the name of the song.
