Song in the head
This summer it is Pumped up Kicks by Foster the People. Maybe the most annoying song since The Night Chicago Died. Other songs that having you longing for an episode of Barney?

I'd just like to know how the geekkids of the roommate know the words to
'Look for the Union Label'? [!?]

I used to love singing to 'The night Chicago died'!
.. and Billy Don't be a Hero!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The 'B' side to one of those singles (can't remember which one) was a great song that I've never found since, and I've long since lost the single. It was called can you get it when you want it' and the chorus was something like: 'can you get it ... when you want it ... when you want it c an you put your finger on it ... and live your life away .... living on affection ... living on affection ... living on affection .... and lo-ove'

A sort of annoying song (but I actually like it 'cos it's sort of meant to be bad and it's funny) was Push the little Daisies by Ween. Annoying but fun and I love screeching along with the chorus.
But annoying in a I-want-to-rip-my-ears-off-whenever-I-hear-it way is Copperhead Road (Steve Earle)
I'm not against country and western - I'm actually extremely easy going when it comes to music and like a lot of country stuff. But that song makes me want to do violent things to the radio whenever it comes on the air.

All mountaineers have this song stuck in their heads....
“If you trust in yourself, and believe in your dreams, and follow your star. . . you'll still get beaten by people who spent their time working hard and learning things and weren't so lazy.”

Thanks to Scooter, I now have this load of old cobblers stuck in my head...

And you just had to share that didn't you?
Why is it that when Miley Cyrus gets naked and licks a hammer it's 'art' and 'edgy' but when I do it I'm 'drunk' and 'banned from the hardware store'?

Wish i could find it again!!

If you can keep your head while those around you are losing theirs, you may have misjudged the situation.

Much, much, much appreciated!!!
I'll have to get help from my kids for that new fangled torrent thing, but I'll be putting that song (and Chicago, and billy!!) on my new fangled Ipod they bought me a little while ago.
Thank you so much

Re: Song in the head
The '80's Macarena was annoying as hell, 'cause of all the teenage, screechy banter and giggling sampled into it (I know guys with PTSD, who go into homicidal fits upon hearing that noise) but the original version wasn't that bad all.
Re: Song in the head
I have had a song stuck in my head all day...but it's Piano Man, so that's not bad.
But I just realized two things about that song. One, the damned melody is, get this, adapted from a WALTZ (3/4 time), and two, most of the lyrics are written as...limericks.
