Mine have been a slightly baffling selection just lately. First it was Tiger Feet. Then I caught myself singing Good King Wenceslas in the car, and couldn't get rid of it out of my head, then for several days it was 9 to 5 (for obvious reasons) and now, this afternoon, it has become A Nightingale Sang In Berkely Square, for no good reason I can think of.

Please tell me I'm not alone in this weirdness!

It Might As Well Rain Until September. Carole King.

Which I've known since its released. But only a couple of years ago I noticed the Buddy Holly tribute at the very end ...the opening bars of his Raining in my Heart..

Barbara Ann, realised it was playing in my head as I read this thread title. No idea why.

Until recently it was the entire soundtrack of Operation Mincemeat, slowly whittled down to just ‘Spilsbury! Sir Bernard Spilsbury!’ Amazing show but for that got annoying.

Nothing at the moment, because the choirs haven’t started back yet. Earlier in the summer I had an annoying mix of Cavalleria Rusticana and something strange by Copland. When they’re full strength they stop me sleeping. Does anyone have any ideas how to get rid of them?
