Oh my goodness.  Thanks for the memories.  Many years ago DH and I took his mother to Walt Disney World for her 80th birthday celebration.  We rode the "Small World" ride several times and couldn't get the tune out of our heads afterwards.  In fact, all the way home from Florida to Pennsylvania we were still singing it.  ... Here we go again.  ROFL Smiley Happy

Re: Do You Ever Get A Song Stuck In Your Head

Regarding the commercials...Madison Avenue would be thrilled...a while back, Handsome asked me where the bandaids were (they have been in the same place for 12 years, but that's another story LOL).  Guess what commercial jingle got stuck in my head for a few days?  Only those of a certain age will remember...

 

I am stuck on bandaids

'cuz bandaids stuck on me

 

And who (of a certain age) doesn't remember the jingle for Oscar Meyer weiner?

 

This gives me a huge clue as to the power of the messages that are being broadcast into our heads and into the heads of our children all day, every day.   IMnotsoHO, this is not necessarily a good thing.

Oh, yes, for sure.  And in my repertoire of songs and instrumentals, that isn't hard.

Re: Do You Ever Get A Song Stuck In Your Head

Every single day and night of my life as far back and I can remember.  The only time it bothers me is when it's an "ear worm," which I describe as a commercial jingle or a song I dislike.  Also sometimes they keep me awake at night.

Re: Do You Ever Get A Song Stuck In Your Head

After finally getting the song Confident by Demi Lovato out of my head I now have a new one. That darn commercial (Verizon I think) with the Randy Newman song from Toy Story 3 We Belong Together! I don't even like Randy Newman, but the commercial airs so often!

yes...and thank goodness for Google! It would drive me crazy when I couldn't remember a name of the song haunting me! 😫
