What's your current earworm?

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!

Everything's Alright from Jesus Christ Superstar, made worse by the fact I only know three lines.

JCSS is one of mine too -“ ..tables, chairs and oaken chests, would have suited Jesus best ..”
And then when I leave the house lately it’s been something from Faith No More.

Pet shop boys Always on my mind, after we heard/saw it on a tv show. Ironic really as it has been literally always on my mind ever since, well over a week.
in our house we say you need an earbird to eat the earworm, but I haven’t yet found a bird big enough 🪱

now its
Bubble
Vibes and that
cruise like a 4 wheel drive and that
take time everything live and that
becah AJT on the mic and that

A debilitating amount. Kids and I can’t even meet eyes without singing it. Yesterday we had a long journey without DH and put it on multiple times and sang our heads off really loudly to try and exorcise it but it has not worked, it’s back this morning.

It’s so comforting to find out it’s not just me with bloody ear worms! DP says I’m nuts as I’m always moaning about them, apparently he never gets them!

Several I particularly hate..

Ruby Ruby Ruby
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
Bippity Boppity Boo
Bohemian Rhapsody
Mickey (currently suffering with this little gem😡)
Any of the popular Christmas songs, as you can’t escape from them in December

Wasnt it a thing that to get rid of them, you had to sing the National anthem 3 times in a row? - or am I really nuts? 😁

🎶 Life is like a hurricane,
Here in Duckburg.... 🎶

Its fucking everywhere and, as much as loved it as a kid, I'm starting to hate it.

Help me!!

(A-woo-oo!)

OMG! That’s a memory unlocked - Ducktales The Movie?

My DS was obsessed with that, he wanted all the characters ( soft toys) so I tracked them all down!
Havent heard that song for years and years! DS is 41 soon😁

RunningOnCaffeineAndChaos · 29/10/2026 22:35

Mine are :-

“Medicine “ by Megan Moroney -it’s been in my head for weeks, and now I’ve got “I can’t help falling in love with you” ( watched Conjuring 2 and now I can’t get it out of my head) i really like both songs but I’m over them both now and wish they would go away 🤦‍♀️

AutobanTicket · 29/10/2026 22:38

Are you peri-menopausal by any chance? I'm noticing ear worms far too much these days and wondering if its hormonal!

queenofthebongo · 01/11/2026 19:12

I’m outta town by the Horrible Histories gang. It’s one of my favourites! It’s been in my head for 3 days now…

Tarkan · 02/11/2026 18:20

I’ve had this on and off for a few days now.

Although I’ve not long got home and DD was singing along to Centuries by Fall Out Boy which has caused Tom’s Diner by Suzanne Vega to get stuck in my head.
