So What Song Is Stuck In Your Head Today?

For those of us who unfortunately can't listen to music all day while working or in school or whatnot, sometimes the only thing that gets us (well, me at least!) through is a song constantly rolling around in your head. I often find myself, consciously or not, tapping out the tune with my feet or sometimes even humming or singing it out loud to myself.

It's funny because I *know* that I dream about songs, as well, because I wake up in the morning sometimes with songs stuck in my head that I wasn't listening to before I went to bed. For example, the other morning I distinctly remember waking up with Overkill's "No Lights" on the brain. \m/\m/

Anyway, much of the time, the songs that get stuck in my head are the maddeningly catchy jingles from the kids shows that we watch with my son. More often than I like to admit, I've wanted to go into my ear with something sharp to dig the damn Wiggles songs out of my brain.

But fortunately, I've had some cool tracks in my head all day for each of the last 3 days. Tuesday's song turned out to be Flotsam & Jetsam's "Monster", yesterday's was Flotsam's "It's On Me", and today's tune is shaping up to be Pink Floyd's "Keep Talking" since I'm in mellower, more tired mood.

So what song is stuck in everyone else's head today?

Don't laugh, but Poison's "I Won't Forget You". I'm sure it's gonna change shortly though. I was listening to an 80's compilation cd this morning so I have all these 80's songs stuck in my head.

The "Oompah Loompah song" from Willie Wonka.



Kill me, please.

I can't think of anyting funny right now.

Opeth - Master's Apprentices, but this isn't too odd, I have that or Deliverance stuck in my head all the time......I am not a fanboy...no way

Marillion - Neverland

Usually it's some idea that's been brewing, but recently it's been "Blackest Eyes" by Porcupine Tree.

I had a prof in college that had the best term for this - he called it "Musical Indigestion".

Peter Gabriel - Sky Blue

Mainly the ending part with the 'Blind Boys of Alabama' has been in my head for a good week.

I know there's some "haters" here, but Eminem can rip raps like Petrucci can rip guitar solos. If you've ever heard this song you know what I'm talking about.

Till I Collapse
(Feat Nate Dogg)

Intro:
Cause sometimes you just feel tired.
You feel weak and when you feel weak you feel like you wanna just give up.
But you gotta search within you, you gotta find that inner strength
and just pull that sh*t out of you and get that motivation to not give up
and not be a quitter, no matter how bad you wanna just fall flat on your face and collapse.

B/W Intro:
Go left, go left, go left right left
Go left, go left, go left right left
Go left, go left, go left right left
Go left, go left, go left right left

Verse #1:
Till I collapse I'm spilling these raps long as you feelin' em
Till the day that I drop you'll never say that I'm not killin' em
Cause when I am not then I am stop pinning them
And I am not hip-hop and I'm just not Eminem.
Subliminal thoughts when I'm stop sending them women are caught in webs spin and hauk venom
Adrenaline shots of penicillin could not get the illing to stop. Amoxacilin is just not real enough.
The criminal cop killing hip-hop filling minimal swap to cop millions of Pac listeners.
Your coming with me, feel it or not you're gonna fear it like I showed you the spirit of god lives in us.
You hear it a lot, lyrics the shock is it a miracle or am I just a product of pop fizzing up.
For shizzle my whizzle this is the plot listen up you pizzles forgot slizzle does not give a f*ck.

Chorus - NateDogg
Till the roof comes off, till the lights go out
Till my legs give out, can't shut my mouth.
Till the smoke clears out and my high wear out
I'ma rip this shit till my bone collapse.
Till the roof comes off, till the lights go out
Till my legs give out, can't shut my mouth.
Till the smoke clears out and my high wear out
I'ma rip this shit till my bone collapse.

Verse #2:
Music is like magic there's a certain feeling you get when your real
and you spit and people are feeling your sh*t.
This is your moment and every single minute you spend trying to hold onto it
cause you may never get it again.
So while you're in it try to get as much sh*t as you can
and when your run is over just admit when its at its end.
Cause I'm at the end of my wits with half this sh*t that gets in.
I got a list here's the order of my list that it's in.
It goes, Reggie, Jay-Z, Tupac and Biggie, Andre from Outcast, Jada, Kurupt,
Nas and then me. But in this industry I'm the cause of a lot of envy,
so when I'm not put on this list the sh*t does not offend me.
That's why you see me walk around like nothing's bothering me.
Even though half you people got a f*cken problem with me.
You hate it but you know respect you've got to give me
The press's wet dream like Bobby and Whitney. Nate hit me.

Chorus - NateDogg

Verse #3:
Soon as a verse starts I eat it at MC's heart
what is he thinking? I'ma not to go against me, smart.
And its absurd how people hang on every word.
I'll probably never get the props I feel I ever deserve
But I'll never be served my spot is forever reserved
If I ever leave earth that would be the death of me first.
Cause in my heart of hearts I know nothing could ever be worse.
That's why I'm clever when I put together every verse
My thoughts are sporadic, I act like I'm an addict
I rap like I'm addicted to smack like I'm Kim Mathers.
But I don't want to go forth and back in constant battles
The fact is I would rather sit back and bump some rappers.
So this is like a full blown attack I'm launching at them
The track is on some battling raps who want some static
Cause I don't really think that the fact that I'm Slim matters
A plaque of platinum status is whack if I'm not the baddest.

Chorus - NateDogg

Outro:
Eminem & Natedogg Echo:
Until the roof
The roof comes off
Until my legs
give out form underneath me

Eminem:
I will not fall,
I will stand tall,
Feels like no one could beat me.

Zep's Rock and Roll. I just got an e-mail from a guy disagreeing with the transcription in the recent DRUM!

Dino Scoppettone, 1969-2008. Rest in peace, homey.

Instrumedly from LAB in all it's goodness!

The Beatles - Getting Better.

Its hard to hum all the harmonies at once

I've been listening to Lamb of God a lot recently, and their riffs stick right to the brain. Right now I've got the "son of a bitch I'm going to break you!" part in 'Break You' in my head.

Here he comes. Here comes John Wayne. "I'm not going to cry about my Pa. I'm going to build an airport... Put my name on it." Why, Michael? So you can fly away from your feelings?

I just got back from a nice 7 mile run, so right now I have Iron Maiden's Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner stuck in my head; it almost always plays in my mind when I go running.

Joy.Discovery.Invention by Biffy Clyro...mainly because I've been recording a version of it for a tsunami benefit CD.

Been listening to Snow all day now, I have Freak Boy stuck in my head now.

Thanks KT

Hmmm, it seems to have changed to As Above So Below, by Behemoth. I think it's because I was drumming my fingers on my desk, and it sounded like the sick double bass beat from that song.

Wedding Nails by Porcupine Tree
I just can't get that song out of my brain...

CHEERZ!

ORIGINAL: ayla1209

I had a prof in college that had the best term for this - he called it "Musical Indigestion".

jaime

That's a cool term... I don't know if I've never heard it described that way before.

By the way, my song has apparently shifted from Floyd's "Keep Talking" to Flotsam's "Monster" again. I'm feeling a little more belligerent as the day's progressing, I reckon.

Morrissey - You're the One for Me, Fatty

Since yesterday it has been "A Favor House Atlantic" by Coheed and Cambria.

Wot Gorilla by Genesis. I was listening to it while driving home from work (NYC Medic)

Soul Sirkus Friends 2 Lovers

In case you haven't heard this album, it's pretty good. Neal Schon, Jeff Scott Soto, Marco Mendoza & Deen Castronovo (who has been replaced by Virgil Donati for their upcoming tour)
This particular song is a little corny, and quite frankly of all the songs on the disc, I'm a little pissed that this one won't Shut the F@#k UP in my head!!!! But it's catchy...

Since reading the updates on the 'how do you know if your in love" thread 'When It's Love' by VH is now on heavy rotation in my brain. (damn it!)

Ocean Cloud - Marillion

"Its a bad way to forget, to obsess on the blood that you let" 3

I just started a new job and they won't let me listen to anything on headphones. I highly doubt they will like me posting on the forum while at work either, but they aren't giving me anything to do that would really occupy my time.

On the up side, I've gotten to work on some new poems and lyrics.

Anyways to answer the question on the thread: Duality - Slipknot.

The Noose - A Perfect Circle

"Pay no mind to the distant thunder..."

Recently discovered some AWESOME Viking Prog Metal: TYR
So now I've got The Wild Rover stuck in my head

"It's not that we have a short time to live, but that we waste a lot of it" Lucius Seneca

its a long one but DT's change of seasons is the one i'm stuck with right now, not complaining at all.

Peter Gabriel - Red Rain

For about the past week, it's been The Beatles' "I am the Walrus." Not a nad song to have stuck in your head, I might add.

Then, because some of the other seniors are constantly playing Super Smash Brothers in the senior lounge at my school, I've also had the Legend of Zelda theme spinning around for a few days.

Bad joke: The other day, my keyboard player dropped his keyboard squarely on my crotch, so I punched him in the face. Now my pianist hurts.

Devin Townsend's "I Am" off of Ass-Sordid Demos II. It's a whole song of this majestic riff that appears for like 2 seconds in "Funeral" on Ocean Machine.

Beatles - What Goes On (Ringo singing)

I should add that I usually wake up in the morning (or afternoon ) with a random song playing in my head, which could be just about anything I've ever heard in my life.

"Budweiser is like pop music. Read through this thread and learn about some great PROG beers. Once you've been converted there's no looking back."

The Lord of the rings theme, I've been watching it all day its stuck like dried up semen.

DT - Hollow Years

Nice. Thanks for the visual. I thought that's what the LotR movies did for fans, induced continuous multiple orgasms, eventually causing dehydration and death.

Van Halen - Hot for Teacher

My Tama Rockstars

My Ludwig Vistalites

I had another "wake up with a random song in my head" moment today. I swear, my brain must be a freaking jukebox set on "random play".

I can't even remember the last time I listened to this song, but it's playing over and over in my head as if I heard it this morning. Awesome.

Today's song, thusfar: "Beauty Of The Beast" by Nightwish. Damn, I love this tune!

Slayer - Angel Of Death


I was desk drumming to this tune during my morning class...until the teacher gave me this weird look.

this morning I woke up with Coheed and Cambria's Junesong Provision stuck in me head. Not a bad song to start the day with

"I've spent so longer sitting down here. Papeerrrrrr!"
