I was lucky to not know what you were talking about and now this knowledge will haunt me for the rest of my life. (We obviously have our own christmas standards in spain. I would say they are equally terrible but that would be lying 
).

Are they stuck in your head simultaneously? What a glorious racket!

They randomly switch as I desperately try to avoid the traditional British glam rock Christmas. It’s subconcious self-defence.
OK, at least they’re better than Paul McCartney (whose only UK Christmas number one was Mull of Kintyre)

Reading about drones and UFOs, this randomly popped into my head.

Good god that Slade one, I learned to hate pop Xmas songs working 14 hour days in a mall in NC in my early 20’s, but I never heard the Slade one until moving back to the UK ~12 years ago, and it has rapidly gotten up into the top 5 xmas songs I’d be happy to never, ever hear again.

Stuck at work with no earphones. This popped in my head for no reason
TIL It’s Four in the Morning was a HUGE hit in England (which makes this song make more sense to me now), and was the very first music video shown on CMT

Kinda swapped the christmas songs for this one… on loop. Is a cool song but I kinda want it out of my brain already:

A friend was going to go on a cruise to the Amazon, but caught COVID and had to cancel. This song started playing in my mind:

Usually when I go in the Piggly Wiggly the music is country songs about Jesus. Yesterday, very strange, it was:
Of course the humming part is stuck with me now.
ETA: It reminded me of the first girl to show an interest in me in junior high. It was a weird scene: Her divorced dad was a cop (with the mustache and everything), her older brother was obliviously gay (with being a hairdresser and everything) - even though they all insisted he wasn’t - and they were Christians. I know, but she was cute and into new wave music and had really big boobs and liked me for some reason. We always made out in her absolutely pitch-black room.
I quit coming around after she said she loved this song but the video was “against God” because the white girl was “dancing with a n*****”

I was going to post this one when @mindysan33 mentioned karaoke. It’s hard to find a karaoke bar that has this, but it’s worth the effort.
I also found it incredibly useful to sing when I couldn’t take any more of the kids playing the Echo Game. They’d hang around to chime in on the “Leonard Bernstein”, then wander off because they were now bored.

Thanks to it being the opening song for “Bad Sisters,” I’ve had this stuck in my head for a week!
Not that I minded the first few days. IMHO, PJ Harvey does a much better job with Leonard Cohen’s song than he did.

I can see, I mean hear, why that music doesn’t inspire her to move…
