Where do people get all this free time to think up of stuff like this.

Earworms yet!!

That reminds me of a Seinfeld episode. The one where George and Jerry were stuck with Elaine's dad and George had this tune stuck in his head from Les Miserables. .."Master of the house ..." .

The only way to drive the demons out is to sing something else.

I have heard many homereccers complain about the public getting used to the crap that major record labels feed, and I think that the reason the labels are able to get away with it is that, after repeated listens, any piece of music becomes listenable. Unfortunately.

The only way to really cure an earworm is to listen to a real wildcard

I like the eagles, especially "hole in the world" I think that will unstick a melody quickly.
