I couldn't help but post this... especially with all the threads that have one or two Freepers saying "great, now I've got that stupid song in my head!".

The only question I have is: Since I'm being TORTURED , can I take the record companies to court & get a big settlement????

I guess the next time that happens to me, I'll break the cinnamon sticks out and start humming:

"Sooomewherrreee ooover the rainbowwww, wayyyy up higghhh..."!

Cheers!

The Brady Bunch Song....hehehe

The song has not so much been stuck in my head as in....

"...MY ACHY-BREAKY HEART!"

Guess who's back, back again. Shady's back, tell a friend. Na na na na na. Na na na na na.

One time I had a song stuck in my head, but I couldn't really hear it over the voices.

Some say that a dismal song looping through one's brain can only be removed by replacing it with an even worse song.

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun...

And new research shows that people most frequently plagued by this phenomenon are those with slightly neurotic tendencies

"I'm Freeee Fallin'..."

how about this?

[P.O.E.]

Every time I'm in a pizzaria, and I shake the dried hot peppers or parmesan cheese onto my pizza, I start to hear:

"I hear those sleigh bells ringling
ring-ting-tingaling too"

I obviously need help.

[P.O.E.]

I had to drive 20 hours back from DisneyWorld with that "Yo Ho, Yo Ho a pirate's life for me" stuck in my head almost the whole time.

I don't think Saddam's hearing "Free Fallin", I think he's hearing "You dropped a bomb on me Bushie, you dropped a bomb on me!"

"This is the song that doesn't end . . . "

I used to deliberately do this to other people. Some mornings, as my ex was leaving the apartment, I'd sing faintly, "In the naaaaame of love..." That was all it would take. He'd be stuck with it for hours. Sometimes I'd hear him whistle a few bars as he went toward the elevator and then give an "ARGH!!" of anguish when he became aware that I'd done it again.

"It just goes on and on, my friends . . . "

No song here - Paul Robeson's Monologue from Othello.

[T Minus Four]

"99 bottles of beer on the wall..."

or even worse:

"The ants go marching one by one, hoorah, hoorah!"

I have actually stopped the car!!!!

Down by the station, early in the morning...
