Do you mean this one?
Now I want to hear Philip Glass doing Heart of Glass!
You also reminded me of this
I’m on data plan right now, so I won’t play it, but the bit with le Carré’s cameo and Santa Lenin. So that looks about right.
As of this morning, this one’s stuck in my head:
For some reason I have to listen to this every time I leave work
Okay, this hardcore earworm needs an intro. I’ve been immersed for days in what are basically the contents of Andy Partridge-of-XTC’s old shoeboxes from under the bed, released in a total of 9 CDs under the title Fuzzy Warbles. They’re gloriously, defiantly, unorganized: a track from some ancient cassette will be next to a well-crafted demo, next to some four-track version of a great song that was never released, next to a weird attempt at 1920s Chinese disco… This is a demo for a children’s song. ENJOY…
Nice! It reminds me of some of They Might Be Giants kid oriented stuff
Oh, it’s typically well-made, it’s just harder to be positive about it when I’ve sung the first line to myself a couple of thousand times.
Where do people have earworms? (Apart from their ears, presumably.) I get them at work, when I generally can’t drive them away with other music, and often when I’m out walking.
Something I dread on a long walk is getting a classic fast twelve-bar backing track stuck in my head, a bit like this:
which I may not get rid of for miles.
I’ve got a love-hate relationship with this song. I don’t like the lyrics. “In love with your body”? What about being in love with the whole person, mind, heart and soul? But that beat is infectious. Before I know it, my hips start moving, I start dancing… it’s such an earworm.
It’s a really douchey song, but it’s an earworm.
Just like this one:
Oh, but I can fix that one for you!
All of the sick beats, none of the guilt, because this one’s infinitely more cool.
ETA: there is just a little bit of naughtiness in this one, maybe a couple of PG-13 moments. YMMV on whether or not it’s work-safe.
Yup. Catchy as hell, shame about the lyrics.
I was pleased Weird Al did a parody.
(The lyrics are still slightly naughty and inconsiderate in places, but not to douchey levels.)
This will not leave my head.
GAHHHH… woke up this morning with one of the most aggressivem perfect earworms ever in my head. it’s still there, looping around and around and around and around…
The a cappella version used to be used a lot by some audio engineers to sound out a room. I got used to hearing the first fifteen seconds of it on endless loop for half an hour or so.
coincidentally, that’s the part that’s stuck on loop in my head.
I will like basically any song with a disco hook.
Also, I have a child so my ear-worms are just her favorite things like:
or:
I started singing this one about an hour ago – good example of everything-old-is-real-again:
