Number 9…

Secret to get rid of earworms is to sing a short commercial jingle like alka seltzer’s “Plop, plop, fizz, fizz, oh what a relief it is”. Jingles are too short to become earworms.

Try it the next time you can’t get a song out of your head.

Delaney & Bonnie’s Never Ending Song Of Love keeps getting stuck in my head.

Don’t mess with Beatles Fans. You could be singing “You Know My Name, Look up the Number.”

Think of a limrick, " there once was a man from…"

Ohhh… The Beatles … I need you

Hard to get Revolution 9 stuck in your head!

[nerd alert] Great classic science fiction novel “The Demolished Man” by Alfred Bester.

Knowing that murders are investigated by telepathic detectives, a billionaire seeks out the most annoying earworm ever written. His plan is to think about the song whenever he’s questioned.

I like Monty’s solution to the earworm problem; the Beatles have so many good songs, there’s bound to be one that can knock out the earworm. And if the Beatles song that does the trick gets stuck in your head in turn, you just need to think of another Beatles song to displace that one….

Someone mentioned ‘’Disco Duck’’ on one of the comics I read earlier……..so I’m passing it on.

I don’t get ear worms but I do have loud tinnitus. I wonder if they’re related.

I’ve mainly listened to Revolution 9 at 78. Then switched back to 33 for Good Night.

Rocky Racoon….calling Animal Control doesn’t help,they aren’t equipped to get him out of your head.

I fight earworms with old BodyCount, or Gil Scott-Heron.

I wonder if RFK’s brain worm provided a song.

Turn me on, dead man.

mih ssim ssim daed si luaP

Warning – Do not go to the Neil Diamond Broadway musical “A Beautiful Noise” if you don’t want to have a certain sing-along song in your head for the following 2 or 3 days. Not So Good.

Or “simply having a wonderful Christmas time.”

I had “Puff the Magic Dragon” stuck in my head on a three-day interstate move, when I was eight. No, it was just another song to me.

He probably doesn’t know the words to Revolution number 9.

Try this, Monty.

I heard ELO’s “Can’t Get It Out Of My Head” this morning, and now I can’t get it out of my head.

Isn’t baby shark the latest ear worm?

Come sit right there and you’ll hear a tale, a tale of a fateful trip . . .

Obviously you’re all to young to have heard the “Limbo Rock”….They should have shot “Chubby Checker” before he did that to us…..
