Tal's comment in another thread about his cel phone playing Twisted Nerve got me thinking about this. In particular because I've had the "Time Warp" stuck in my head all day. Had a dream where Lyinar was singing it (she made me watch RHPS a while back; I HAD escaped it but noooOOOoooo) and now it's been stuck in my head all day.

For those of you unfamiliar with this use of the term, an earwig, in quasi-scientific vernacular, is a tune that you can't get out of your head for whatever reason.

The Milkshake song is one, so is that jaunty little Twisted Nerve tune. What are some that have plagued/are plaguing you?

I thought you were going to tell some sordid tale about the kind of bugs that live in bathrooms with pincers coming out their rears. *shivers*

Twisted Nerve is an awesome song for a ring tone. I used it for all my co-workers, once upon a time.

Now everybody just gets the theme from The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.

A Kansas City Shuffle is when everybody looks right, you go left.

It's not something people hear about.

That's what I thought, too! *cringe*

That newest Foo Fighter's song. Every time x103 says "New music from Foo Fighters" it's that stupid song.. and it's been "new" for months! ARGH! I want to rip my brains out through my eye sockets with hot tweezers every time I hear it.

Thanks to someone here, I've had a certain terrible Black Eyed Peas song stuck in my head. It is quite possibly one of the worst songs ever, but it is horribly fixed in my brain.

I thought you were going to talk about the bug too. Damn those things freak me out. I had a sandbox in my backyard as a kid and they nested there

Anyway: Peter Gabriel. Any time I hear one of his songs it's guaranteed that I'll be humming to myself for like a week later. I do not know why this is. Also Deathstars, but I only suspect one person on EC might know who they are.

"Uncle F***er" from the South Park movie soundtrack sometimes makes its way into my head at work.

That's really not a good song to be humming or singing at work.

I find that most problems can be solved by excessive violence.

Either Stay Fly, or whatever it's called, by 3-6 Mafia.(I can't help but sing along with the chorus when it comes on at work. I can't help it. I gotta stay fly-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y until I die-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y.)

Or There It Go by Juelz Santana.(The whistler's song. I can't help but whistle along with that one when it comes on, either. Help. )

A song called "Deceptacon" by Le Tigre. Look it up. IT WON'T LEAVE MY BRAIN but I still love it.

Oh and the recent Coldplay stuff which makes me want to slash my wrists. I hate Coldplay to the point of wanting to track down Chris Martin and shoot him in the face.

Fucking bedwetters.
