Have a song stuck in my head, help!

"Thank God I'm a Country Boy" by John Denver. How the hell did that happen? Sorry, I'm just ranting because it isn't that great of a song. Anyone else have a crappy song in their head?

HOLD IT RIGHT THERE! That happens to be the 7th inning stretch song for the Baltimore Orioles and therefore brings back excellent memories for me. Of course, now it signals the end of beer sales for the night. Sigh. The lost innocence of youth....

The only way to get a song unstuck from between your ears is to replace it with another song that's equally adhesive.

Think of....The Bunny Hop! DEE dee dee dee DEE DEE...DEE dee dee dee DEE...DEE dee dee dee DEE DEE...DEE! DEE! DEE!

See? Wasn't that easy? (No...don't bother to thank me!)

I didn't realize the Orioles played a John Denver song!

I like that song! In fact I have several of his albums. I sing that son every once in a while. If I have a song stuck in my head I do not want there, I start singing something from Weird "AL" Yankovic. LOL. It works.

From http://www.rense.com/general35/alone.htm:

Strategies people report using to rid themselves of stuck tunes involved trying to listen to something else, distracting themselves with another activity, and trying to erase the repetition of one song snippet by singing the song all the way through. 😀

I usually try countering these annoyances with memorized video game music like the tunes from SMB or Kid Icarus. Section-Z is another good one.

It could be worse, least you know what song it is

Aachen1983 · Jan 6, 2006

I got it out of my head by playing Doom 3 on my XBOX and getting scared out of my skin. On another note, I like John Denver and love take me home country roads. I have family from West Virginia and it reminds me of them.

Someone once told me that when you get a song stuck in your head it means youre having a small aneurism. There! Now youre not worried about the song in your head anymore, youre worried about having an aneurism! Glad I could help.

that dorky Primus song with all the drumming innit ... !! driving me crazy ... !!!

I find that this happens because I abruptly stopped listening to the song in the middle of it, because I turned off the ignition in the car, or walked out of a room. Lately, though, the same damn song can stay in my head for days at a time. Didn't used to happen like that.

I thought it would serve as a nice distraction. When haunted by a song, I listen the crap out of another one.... :xpulcy:

If that song were recorded today, it would have to be "and the African-American girls go...."
