In the Jungle: What song is stuck in your head?

[JustSkipIt]

Not what song gets stuck in your head the worst, but what song is stuck in your head right now? I get songs stuck in my head all the time, possibly because we've started watching The Backyardigans which is a really fantastic pre-school show with dancing and singing but the songs are insidious. Between that and those free-credit report songs, my head is full all the time.

Right now I have two songs in my head simultaneously: Amy Winehouse's I don't want to go to Rehab and Pop Goes my Heart, the spoofy 80s song from Music and Lyrics.

Well my cousin was playing Seek and destroy from metallica on the electric guitar and it is stuck in my head now. I use to have songs in my head all the time also

Thanks to B, the song I have in my head for the past week is a song from the mid 80s if I remember correctly. I was a kid and I loved it, and recently I have rediscovered this with many laughs and pelasure. But it doesn't want to go away now.
The song is called "Vive Les Vacanes" , and it is sung by Dorothée.

[woahnellie]

Buttons by The Pussycat Dolls and Snoop. It's been in my head all day long.

[Foomatic]

Liverpool 8, Ringo Starr.

[Paint the Sky]

Until I read the name of this thread I had no songs stuck in my head, but not now. Now all I'm getting is 'In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps tonight...'

Thanks for that

One of my new HD channels had on a performance of La Traviata just a little earlier. I'm still humming "Libiamo ne' lieti calici." Not a bad thing at all, as far as songs that get stuck in your head go.

I spent the day with my girlfriend catching up on the show "Weeds," and now I can't get that "Little Boxes" song out of my head.

Just a side note: When I was researching topics for my Music History thesis, I dug around a little, contemplating a project about which musical elements of a tune makes it stick and loop in a person's head. I didn't find much information, so the paper never got written, but it is fun to think about. Especially if you're a huge geek like me.

[JustSkipIt]

Yep, that Backyardigans...

I have "We, We, zip zip zip from tree to tree" from the Tea Party episode in my head now.

BTW: I considered calling this thread "Walk like an Egyptian..."

[Boschi]

"Lyin' Eyes" by the Eagles.

It won't stop, it just keeps looping and looping and looping.

[Guest]

Two for the time being...

The semi-classical piece from the movie Bhool Bhulaiya – "Mere Dholna". I love the tabla beats and they keep on resounding in my head.

Second one strangely is "Out of my Heart, Into Your Head" by BB Mak ,save for the fact that I have the lyrics mixed up constantly and in my own head the loop's as follows: Out of my head, into your heart.

[Emms]

great thread. I get songs stuck in my head all the time, today it's Ebudae by Enya. It's been playing in my head all morning.

The Puppini Sisters, this really cute singing trio from London do a remake of 'Walk Like An Egyptian' which is really good. They're a 40s style group like the Andrews Sisters and they also covered Kate Bush's 'Wuthering Heights' and Blondie's 'Heart of Glass'http://streetkiss.free.fr/26-janv-2008/The_Puppini_Sisters_-_Heart_Of_Glass.mp3.

Only their first album is available in the States now, but their second is just as yummy.

[sweet satin lover]

The Sugababes ( yes that is the right spelling lol)
"About you now."

[woahnellie]

Just another manic monday woooahh ooh, wish it was a sunday, cuz thats my fun day.

Manic Monday- The Bangles

Oh yes indeed that song is so catchy now I have that one in my head too

[PolarBear]

Every time I see this thread "Welcome to the Jungle" by GNR starts playing in my head...

My inner jukebox has also favored "Life is a Flower" by Ace of Base during last couple of days.

[umgaynow]

You do realize that everyone reading this thread is going to get at least one of the songs mentioned stuck in their heads? This is an evil and insidious thread...although I have often employed this trick with irritating people as telling you what the worst song they ever got stuck in their head was, will immediately bring it right back again


Right now I have Birdhouse in My Soul by They Might Be Giants stuck in mine...a real blast from the past as they say

[JustSkipIt]

Straight-ahead, straight-ahead, straight-ahead skate. It must be from the backyardigans. Arggghhh!

[CrazyTaraWitch]

I have a terribly sappy song we learned in choir called Dream a Dream stuck in my head. I don't know who it's by, but I find it rather annoying.

[cavortingbeasty]

For me it's Girl in a Coma's "Their Cell." I just can't get that intro riff out of my head!

[Pinocchio1940]

I looked it up and it's sung by Charlotte Church.

[CrazyTaraWitch]

Heh, ok, thanks:)

[woahnellie]

I love rock and roll, put another dime in the jukebox baby

[Boschi]

Okay, your new name is Darth Skipitous

Good Grief...it's like this horrible addiction that leads to uncontrollable neural firing. I look at this thread and suddenly WHAM!

I'm humming and bobbing my head and it just won't stop.

thanks to the little shit, err...Sith woahnellie, my brain is now subjecting me to Pat Benatar.

[dlline]

Great, Boschi.

Thanks a heap.

You just had to say Wham!, and now all I can think about is "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go."

That was evil.

[gorn]

I hate doing this, but Boschi really ought to know better - "I Love Rock & Roll" was Joan Jett, not Pat Benatar.

I was just starting to hum "Hit Me With Your Best Shot," until dlline mentioned Wham! ... and if she hadn't, I wouldn't have caught it in Boschi's post. Now I'm skipping around the house in my CHOOSE LIFE white t-shirt. How embarassing ...

[kisstheviolets]

I look at this thread and suddenly WHAM!.

this prompted some careless whisper loop in my brain... cause i'm never going to dance again, guilty feet ain't got no rhythm.

fuck. if only i could not hear the sax solo.

thanks bosch.

[gorn]

When I think of sax solos, I think of Gerry Rafferty's "Baker Street." I hope I have that stuck in my head all day ...

[Auriam]

thank to my co worker last night ! i have "no one" in my head grrr
