It's always the one you hear before you leave for work, isn't it? Or one that you just happened to hear on the radio TWO DAYS ago and can't stop humming. Especially annoying if you only know a bar or two of it and keep humming it ad infinitum.

For me today it's that pushing little buttons one of the telly.

"Push a little button to watch teeveeeee, night and day we're pushing little buttons"

ARGH.

Supergrass is not a bad one. I have the "I like your booty..." song from the Aqua Teen Hunger Force movie in my head. I may end up going on a violent rampage.

I have a theory about this. It's because you did not hear the end of the song, your brain is still processing it and will continue to until you play it to the end.

Not stuck in my head, but now and again I think about Cher Lloyd's version of Turn My Swag On. I'm always going to You Tube to watch it

So if I go home, listen to the song and it comes back worse than ever, I can blame you?

Rudeboy by Rihanna.
My oldest son loves the song (and the video ) so he plays it non stop at the moment, i am so sick of hearing it and having it stuck in my head i am on the verge of hunting Rihanna down and having serious words with her for releasing that song!

"It's the final countdown..."


Never fails to get stuck in my head once I hear it. Also, the theme tune to "Chorlton and the Wheelies".

Dunno why, but they can take days to go!

Best by Far by Omar

Loving this at the moment.

My son really likes Behind the Groove by Teena Marie (RIP) so I've been playing that a lot too.

I had "Mr Soft" by Cockney Rebel in my head, which is similar in parts to the Chorlton theme, I've now got both of them combined.
