Bizarrely, the theme tune to obscure 1970's Invisible Man rip-off series The Gemini Man.

Pop punk/noisy indie pop from a band called Calyx out of Pittsburgh:

No fucking "Sweet Escape" from this one...

I'm concerned about this. Lately the earworms I've been having feel really loud and hard to tune out. It's one of things making it hard for me to sleep or stay focused when I'm awake and exhausted.
Lately, the song has been Psychedelic Furs "Heartbreak Beat." Really loud, including the annoying saxophone bits. Intermittently, I get "Tubthumping," but partly They Might Be Giant's cover of it and partly Chumbaumba's version. And then sometimes I get Simon & Garfunkle's "Only Living Boy in New York" interspersed with their "America" - the one about riding a bus from Michigan to, apparently, New Jersey or New York, with Cathy, back when they allowed people to smoke on buses, apparently.Comment

I get that, too. I wake up through night (on the occasions I sleep) with music in my head, almost as if it's woken me up.
It's been Cat Stevens / Yusuf Islam's "Matthew and Son" for about a week. No decent version on YouTube, I'm afraid.Comment

Well, that sent me down a TMBG rabbit hole. Time to revisit the it-sounds-as-if-it-was-written-for-2016 I Should Be Allowed To Think, and what might very well be my favorite Christmas song, their Santa's Beard (not a Beach Boys cover).Hot Pepsi wrote: Intermittently, I get "Tubthumping," but partly They Might Be Giant's cover of itComment

It's taken me about a month to shake Warren Zevon's Desperadoes Under the Eaves, and Iris Dement singing Livin' In The Wasteland of the Free. They've been on rotation in my head since the US election. Once in a while Amy Rigby shows up with Do You Remember That? to add a bit of levity, for which I'm grateful.Comment

Sorry AdeC: you mention Warren, I fall apart.

This one has been stuck in my head for ages. First it's the vocal and then it's the guitar line, followed by "There's always a moron, someone to hate". One of his best ever tracks in my opinion.

In the last four days, I've visited two different grocery stores. The Weis near me and the Wegmanns on the other side of town. On both occasions, as I entered the store, The Motels' 1983 hit "Suddenly Last Summer," was playing in the store Musak system.
I suppose maybe both stores subscribe to the same Musak service, and maybe this song about summer that peaked at #9 on Billboard is enjoying an resurgence in the winter of 2017, but the odds of hearing it twice in a week while entering two different stores is remarkable.
Anyway, now it's stuck in my head.Comment

Three days in, and the Adele one with a slightly tribal-sounding oom-pah chorus is driving me bloody insane. Just the start of the chorus. Seriously, I'm in trouble here.Comment

So having looked it up it's called Send My Love (To Your New Lover). I know this because I just flipped and decided to force myself to do LRTT (Listen Right Through Therapy).
Hasn't worked yet.Comment

I'm convinced one of the reasons behind Adele's relative prestige is the fact that she looks like someone's ma, so if you're, say, a professional type who craves some sort of artistic respectability, you can take solace in the fact that she's not 'one of those pop slags who sell their bodies'.Sits wrote: Three days in, and the Adele one with a slightly tribal-sounding oom-pah chorus is driving me bloody insane.
