Received an e-mail about a pumpkin sale for my daughter's middle school band, and now I cannot get the David S. Pumpkins' theme music out of my head.

Also, "Vacation" by Dirty Heads has been on repeat in my head a lot over the past month.

I'm betting more than a few who read this will also get those pieces of music playing in their heads.

Any earworms playing in your head?

We have a guy here at work who is unusually susceptible to earworms, and will get one stuck for hours before threatening to harm the person who was responsible. I make it a point to torment him.

My favorite technique is to respond to him when he's ranting about how bad something is with "But is it bananas? B a n a n a s..." in a casual, monotone voice as part of the conversation. I have an almost a 100% success rate getting Holla Back Girl stuck in his head.

There is a Lady Gaga song that I have heard 6 times in my life and all 6 times it was stuck in my head for 2-3 days in a row. I don’t even know what it’s called.

Let me guess: Ma-Ma-Ma-Ma-Pu-Pu-Pu-Poker Face?

I see your Gaga.....And raise you a Katy Perry "Roar".


Louder, louder than a lion
'Cause I am a champion, and you're gonna hear me roar!

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar!

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar!

I got the intro to this in my head for about 3 days. It's the worst I can recall by a bunch. I can usually put some headphones on and listen to something really different and it gets rid of it. Nothing helped with this.

No I had heard of that song, but heard it at the Super Bowl 1/2 time show. She also sang the ear worm song I am speaking of, let me look it up.

Thankfully it was second Gaga song on YouTube, It’s called Bad Romance and now I will have that stupid ra ra ra ra ra stick in my head again for a day or two.

Hall and Oates is the worst offender for me, try and change if they come on immediately.

Currently have the O'Riley auto parts jingle stuck in my head which is driving me nuts.
