earworms

The cure for earworms is bollywood, the cheesier the better. For instance:



It pushes the earworm out, and leaves without getting stuck itself.

(also cheesy bollywood songs are just great anyway)

 

This isn't an objective earworm but it sure is horribly stuck in my head right now:

 

brain mashup:
you load sixteen shells and whaddaya get
another day older and a red corvette
st peter doncha call me, oh can't you see
I kicked that mule to the top of the tree

 

I just turned fourteeeeen, and I think this year I'm gonna be mean
Dooon't mess with meee I'm a big boy now and I'm very scaaaryy~
Doo doo-do doo, dodo doo-do-doo do doo do doo-doo~

 

Holes soundtrack's "Dig It".

 

Me: *forgets earbuds home one time*
My traitorous brain:
(Content warning: brownface, enlightened atheism, the whole thing is in extremely bad taste)

 

This one might not count because it was written down, not an actual tune, but there was a weird webcomic I flicked through a while back which had a musical scene, and the song from it has been stuck in my head on and off for YEARS.

"You're-"
"No, you're-"
"No, you're-"
"The someone I adore..."

 

I haven't heard it in years and I still know all the words. I don't know how. I just do.

 

The creator has apparently apologised for the slur in the words and up-to-date versions exist with a censored spot and name. Personally I think the line should be reworked to be a full line which doesn't use the slur rather than just leaving a gap, but either way, it sticks in your head.
