    I find myself humming various tunes on my daily walks, no idea where they come from and it takes me a while to realise I'm humming.  But the tune that has been stuck in my head for the past 2 days is the theme tune to 'Murder She Wrote'.  Now that's an annoying earworm

    I’ll tell you one song I definitely can’t remember a note to,

    the winning eurovison song! Not one single power chord has registered with me at all!

    nil point, my **** (excuse my French)

    I only know 'drivers license' by Olivia Rodrigo @sofia_goncalves, but I agree that she has a nice voice. I'll have to give that one a listen.

    People at universities study this, and get paid for their efforts. Top tips:

    An earworm will usually disappear by itself, but a few techniques have been found to help.
    1. Listen to the tune all the way through. Since earworms are usually only a fragment of music, playing the tune all the way through can help break the loop.
    2. Replace it with another piece of music.
    3. Chew gum!
    My last earworm I still think of as the 'Holy Moly macaroni where's your cheese? song. Just writing that makes me shudder.

    As I get older and more certain of who I am - an advantage of age - talking to myself is also common. To that I can add singing to myself loudly and bravely on the streets, which I can cover, and in shops. There is no hiding a chorus of Holy Moly macaroni in a charity book shop.

    Now this is weird seeing this question as I have been asking myself why I find myself singing or humming a song for days on end!  As I have no memory of hearing it any time recently! I do wonder why that happens? If it means something? 
      The song stuck in my head for the last 3 days is ace of bass? Base? All that she wants is another baby? I also have  days where I have the salty  balls song from chef -(South Park) in my head? And then other cheesy random songs aqua barbie girl for example I mean the list goes on and on but I'm already embarrassed!
    There is basically always a (Removed, profanity) song stuck in my head and I can rarely figure out where it came from? It's hardly ever songs I would choose to listen to (honest)! I'm always being asked why on earth I'm singing something as it slips out in front of neighbours or family? Maybe I should mention these things when I have my medication review lol
    I am glad I'm not the only one walking around with a jukebox in her head though even if it is confusing why it happens!

    Hello Tori_Scope

    Yesterday the song got stuck in my head was "Barking" by Ramz & Stereo Luchs.

    Having seen him at a festival over the weekend, Recovery by Frank Turner is quite prominent in my head at the minute
