The Majority Of Brexit's Impact On...
News10 mins ago
This is not a trivial question. I've had a song in my head for weeks now and I can't get rid of it. I listen to the radio and stuff and I sing different songs to myself when I'm awake. If I wake in the night it's always there... the same phrase of the song... and it carries on from there. When I wake in the morning it's there.... same phrase.... If I'm engrossed in something, say gardening or shopping or whatever, it's there playing in the background.
Any ideas please?

On a different note, my cure for songs wedged in the head is to hum the Black Beauty theme. For some reason this is musical parsley for me. It gets rid of the taste of 'Hey Mickey' or whatever, and doesn't leave an aftertaste. The song is gone and Black Beauty isn't there in its place!
This might only work for me though.
Would it be something to do with hearing a song late at night? Two weeks ago I watched the classic rock film called "The Last Waltz" and even though I don't particularly like this song every night and throughout the day the words
"Like my father before me, I'm a working man
And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand"
keep going round and round and...... Yesterday I heard Queen's "We Will Rock You" - So now I have two!!!!
Hi Squiggle
It's Gipsies, tramps and thieves by Cher. It always starts at Picked up a boy just South of Mobil, gave him a ride, filled him with a hot meal........
I've been trying Flashpig's suggestion of the Black Beauty theme, I can't remember it and it generally turns into Ride of the Valkyries but I think it may be helping 'cos it's got no words and just sort of mumbles on!
And today I see I've got a few more suggestions to try.. .
