Yes, that is the technical term...

I have had The Talking Head's "Psycho Killer" stuck in my head for the last week or two... I didn't even hear it or anything, just woke up with it in my head one morning and haven't been able to get it out since!

 

Good tune though and fun to sing (when I'm alone!) so I guess I don't mind so much lol

Just about any song I'm familiar with can get stuck in me noggin. Although the all time winner seems to be that accursed "name game" song.

 

I found a sure fire way to end the curse of having an annoying song stuck in my head. It may not work for everyone (especially those who never had vinyl!).

 

When I have one of these songs in my head (and finally realize it lol) I imagine grabbing the "needle" and ripping it off the album making one of those horrible screeching noise that instantly ends the song. Works every time. 8-)

I've had this tune stuck in my head for a couple days now (in a good way)

 

 

Cool 'Oakey' version of this song!

This one is for gamers specifically, the guy who made it has spoofed quite a few songs for World of Warcraft.

 

It's relatable to most people on here (I think) and most have probably heard the original.

 

 

I also suggest

 

Same female voice as the first one Summergale

(what can I say I hope she goes pro because she's so pro)

Video is extremly well done and the song is always in my head since I first saw it (my memory is just like that)

Although the lyrics (even being a spoof and me not being an expert on spoofing songs) could use some work.

 

Finally for any computers programmers/It workers or even the Mod

I just love this video the most and is soooo true.

 

Enjoy!

This song has been out for 2 years but it is stuck in my head right now. The Song\video is kinda something most of us can relate to! I like the way the incorporate several instruments.

I have that same song stuck in my head too. And the sad thing about it is that when I joke around with some employee or close friend/customer I sing it with there name in it and then carry on to more serious things.
