I have a song stuck in my head

[Danmel]

If I Needed Someone.
Listened to it, still stuck.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

1. I've had "Puttin' On The Ritz" stuck in my head for almost a week.

It will NOT go away.

[Liberal Veteran]

13. Dressed up like a million dollar trooper. Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper.

Super-duper.

Come let's mix where Rockefellers walk with sticks...

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

14. You aren't helping!!

Accompanying the earworm is the vision of Gene Wilder and Peter Boyle performing this number in "Young Frankenstein."

[Liberal Veteran]

19. You could see if this song will kill the earworm.

[TwilightGardener]

2. At least it's not "Jesus is just all right with me! Jesus is just all right oh yeah!"

Because that's been in my head, and I don't want it there...ever.

[bluesbassman]

3. Here's a better "Jesus" song to replace that with...

[TwilightGardener]

4. My all time favorite ZZ Top song! Well, this and "Waiting For The Bus".

I think they're supposed to go together.

[bluesbassman]

7. Pretty much, I was just cutting to the chase to help out with the DB tune removal.

Here's the real deal:

15. Mine is

"Beer Drinkers And Hell Raisers"

That driving bass in the background is awesome...

[bluesbassman]

18. Cool. That's one of our set list tunes. I sing the call,

and the keyboard player sings the response. Fun tune, and the crowd always gets into it.

[Jack Sprat]

5. One that sticks in mine goes something like this.

Da...da...........da.da.da.da...dah..da doe.
un dot and dah doe
zat and za zah, en dot en dah dah

Can you name it for me?

[Doc_Technical]

9. Perhaps it is this one

[Ptah]

6. Boom laka laka

[begin_within]

8. Well, groove on these saxophones!

[marzipanni]

10. My ear worm lasted for a week or so

I don't distinctly remember hearing it when it was first played 21 years ago, or since then, but it seemed hauntingly familiar when I heard it recently.
I think the quote at the end of the video is Sally Ride's.

[AsahinaKimi]

11. The BEST way to break an ear worm...

Is to listen to ANOTHER one... This one usually breaks the spell for me..

[HopeHoops]

12. Go with the theme song from "Gilligan's Island" - that wipes out everything else.

D'OH! Sorry.

[Xyzse]

16. And! Use an Emily Dickinson Poem!

Use a Dickinsonian poem as lyrics to the Gilligan theme.
Works wonders!

[pipi_k]

17. I've been tortured for the past couple of days

by California girls with sun kissed skin so hot we'll melt your popsicle

[raccoon]

20. By the Beatles? Not a bad song to have stuck in your head. nt

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

22. Better than having a certain song stuck in your head from a famous ride at Disneyland

in Fantasyland that will remain unmentioned and that has haunted my nightmares since my visit in 1986.

[Doc_Technical]

24. If you can't escape the melody,

sing different lyrics:

[Danmel]

21. no, it really is a great song

And it's still going.

Carve your number on my wall and maybe you will get a call from me, if I needed someone.

[blue neen]

23. Cowboys to Girls

I heard this song on the radio today, and it will not leave my head!
