urban, what's your earworm?

[purves grundy]

Something by Death In Vegas

Has anyone tried timing a song that's 'playing' in your bonce to see if it matches with the true duration of the track? It's great fun. Always seems to be around 10% shorter than the real thing for me.

The Soviet National Anthem. I found myself marching round Sainsbury's singing it earlier as I browsed the glorious vegetables, grown through the joyous labour and valourous deeds of the proletariat.

as sung by the red army choir, i hope.

best national anthem by some distance... it's often playing in my head.

I just played it on Youtube and was thinking that there was an anthem I could salute . Stirring stuff ...

When I got off the bus this evening, I found myself humming 'When I survey the wondrous cross.'

I haven't even been inside a church for the best part of six years, and I've no idea when I last heard that particular hymn, so why it's come to me now I don't know. It's not even a very hummable tune.

9 In The Afternoon - Panic At The Disco

 

[rollinder]

Party Fears Two - mostly the ending and a bit of the music/wordless section
& the "I have been a washer up An' he has been a scrubber up" bit of The Clash's Cheapskates mixed in with the " better than some factory Now thats no place to waste your youth" lines and chorus of all The Young Punks

 

[toblerone3]

Party Fears Two that is a moorish tune indeed and a real earworm I imagine.

My current worm is 4 Hero's "Morning Child". I love 4 Hero!!!

I had that Currently the Crass covers album by Jeffrey Lewis. I say currently, it has been a month now 24/7 . Much as I love the album, it is making me go mad and have been asked at work why I keep going 'system system system'.

 

[fuBganger]

That song from the car advert with the singing dog 'I'm a man yes I am and I love you sooo!'

 

[rollinder]

FUCKING GODDAM ESPECIALLY FOR YOU... i'm sure it's related to a rickrolling i was victim of the other night... i'm gradually managing to displace it using an applied combination of toxicity and bullet in the head but goddam...
