Warning: If you have a tendency to get songs stuck in your head, DO NOT READ THIS POST!

OK, I warned you.

Here it is, a story from Reuters about songs getting stuck in your head.

Ninety-eight percent of respondents said they had experienced stuck songs. Most said the episodes occurred "frequently," and lasted an average of a few hours.

Songs with lyrics were most often the culprits, a trend that Kellaris said is not surprising. Often what gets sticky is not just a tune, but also lyrics, a trend he calls "stupid lyrics syndrome." Combining a tune and lyrics ups the chance of song snippets staying with the listener for hours, he said.

Episodes of earworms also tend to strike people with neurotic tendencies more often. These people are not seriously neurotic, Kellaris said, but may simply be more prone to worrying and anxiety, and may have neurotic habits like biting pencils or tapping fingernails.

But for something even funnier (as is often the case), here's a great Free Republic thread about it.

I experience a strange variation on this phenomenon.

99% of the time -- at least -- there is music in my head. Fortunately, it's not always the same music. But you can, literally, walk up to me at just about any time of day and ask me what song is playing in my head, and I'll be able to answer with no hesitation. At the moment it's "It's A Hard-Knock Life" from the musical Annie.

If I get a song stuck in my head that's starting to annoy me, which does happen sometimes, I can usually make it go away by concentrating on a song I find less annoying. Sometimes I have to try harder than others.

But I wonder how odd it is that I simply always have music in my head?

Try this to dislodge a song, hum or listen to The Blue Danube. It has enough changes in it to chase out Achy Breaky and Sister Golden Hair combined. ( I keep it on my lap top for quick access, the 2001 version)

Ok I gave you a cure, here's another disease

deet'n deet dot dot doe doe doe

EVERBODY HAMPSTER DANCE!!!

Interesting... I only recent figured out what triggers this in my case: fatigue! I have noticed that when I don't get enough sleep for enough days in a row, songs (or even movie lines) will get stuck on 'replay'.

It's one of those songs that you hear for a while.
It comes into fashion and goes out of style.
It's one of those songs that you think you forgot
But it's one of those songs you cannot!

Sorry. That one (which is about the kind of song that sticks in your head) is the one song I know that will kick other tunes out.
And I just read a couple pages of the Freeper comments, so I needed it!

These songs don't allow me to cincentrate on anything, decreases my productivity(u know what i mean).They're simply driving me crazy

I think there should be penalties for creating annoying songs like these!! The most terrible thing is when you got an ad-tune in your head.. right now I am in Melbourne, Australia, and here they have the most horrific commercials.. (nananananananananan anaaaaa!)

how do you learn to enjoy it,the music is there from the time i wake up to the time i go to sleep,sometimes i want to blow my mind up.
