Do you have songs you can't get out of your head??
I HATE THIS!

The other day, I heard a snippet of Morning Train (I think that's the name of it), by Sheena Easton. Remember that one?

My baby takes the morning train
He works from nine to five
And then he takes it back again
To find me waiting for him.

That song does it to me every time, I can't go to sleep at night, because it keeps running thru my feeble brain.

That "bad-boys" song from Cops will do it to me too.

What are some of the songs, old and new, that you can't get out of your head? (Make us suffer too.)

2. We need a whole new category of "Songs that make you cry"
After Katrina, every time I heard Aaron Neville sing "Louisiana," I would burst into tears.

What is a good way to get a song OUT of your head?

4. The Who.
The Who takes care of all ear worms for me.

3. This is happening to me lately in that
any cut from Sarah McLachlan's latest CD (Afterglow) can pop into my head at random.

I saw Ms. McLachlan and her stellar band in St. Louis 9/1/04 and can't remember a better concert....well, CSNY the year before that was outstanding in it's own right.

No "suffering" hearing the angel from Vancouver sing, though. :~D

5. "You Light Up My Life" by Debbie Boone from a disastrous Karaoke
Edited on Wed Mar-15-06 07:43 AM by Submariner
incident in the late 70's. I HATE that song with a passion, but when I hear bad music, the word Karaoke, or threads like this on DU, the "You Light Up My Life" tumor in my brain goes active. x( Please make it stop....please make it stop!

6. Music for the midlife crisis.
For a couple of weeks now, I haven't been able to stop playing (both on CD player and inside head) Bob Dylan's Blood on the Tracks. "Tangled Up in Blue," "Lily, Rosemary, and the Jack of Hearts" and "You're Going to Make Me Lonesome When You Go" are my daily earworms. :crazy:

Hey, I'm one of the lucky ones. :-)
