Does anyone have a song that is stuck in your head right now and you can't get it out? For me, right now the song that's stuck in my head is Sally's Song from Nightmare Before Christmas. For those who don't know that song, click here. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=4Qg_ICDf0bE)

I'm weird, I know. :D

The term for such a song is "earworm (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=earworm)". I've had plenty that are worse than that one.

The doo-wop version of "Hail Holy Queen" from Sister Act?

"Dona nobis pacem" from Kenneth Branaugh's Henry V?

Paul Simon's "American Tune" as sung by The Starland Vocal Band (great version, by the way, using the harmonics from Bach's B Minor Mass).

And that's just this week.

I get a lot of Amy Winehouse songs stuck in my head. I don't mind it, though.

Yeah... Who doesn't like Amy Winehouse...

That was plain weird.

Now I need to listen to some Merle Haggard to clear out the ear-sinuses.

Am I on the bus or not? If I'm not that's a perfect song. If I'm on it, then I'm going with I'm a Little Teapot.

Welcome to the Machine by Pink Floyd.

I first heard the Wish You Were Here album in the 11th grade when I was 16. After just one listen I kept hearing the keyboard work by Rick Wright over and over again for days. It made it hard to concentrate in class. Needless to say I bought a copy, in my case a casette and soon discovered everything else by Pink Floyd, including the very early Syd Barret period. Today they are still one of my favorite groups.

This is the song that never ends, it just goes on and on my friend. Some people started singing it not knowing what it was, and they'll continue singing it forever just because, this is the song that never ends, it just goes on and on my friend.

For the record; I hate this sort of music, and I hate this shitty little song.
