And it is still playing the moment I wake up the next day. It only goes away when it gets replaced by a new one. This morning its Oh Oh Its Magic.

I get that A LOT. Both love it and hate it. More love. I've had the same song in my head for a few days. It doesn't stop. It's more when I'm on manic spectrum at a certain stage of it. Here's my song for right now. Seriously, I can't stop. It's in the background regardless. People say things get stuck in their heads. I believe this, yes. But BP 'stuck in your head' is way different. LOL. And yes, when this starts for me, it's almost always in the evening during some nice hypo. Anyways, here's my Drake song that loops for days now. It's not even Drake lol but they play this on radio also or in DJ mixes.

This totally happens to me. Quite often actually. I'll sing songs over and over in my head.

superchick's beauty from pain is my worst culprit for this.

especially the middle part

"here I am, at the end of me,

trying to hold on to what I can't see"

"here I am at the end of me,

trying to hold on to what i can't see"

again, and again, and again

almost like a stuck cd

For me it's quite often Iron Maiden 'Moonchild' particularly the beginning verse:

Seven deadly sins
Seven ways to win
Seven holy paths to hell
And your trip begins
Seven downward slopes
Seven bloodied hopes
Seven are your burning fires
Seven your desires

And the chorus:

Moonchild hear the mandrake scream
Moonchild open the seventh seal

I do love me some Maiden though, so it could be worse. In my head I sound like Bruce Dickinson even if I am a girl lol

I sometimes get music stuck in my head, but not as often. There's too much other crap going on as well.

Yes, I get this often. It doesn't bother me all that much....I have much worse things my brain will loop on sometimes. What song is it? Do you enjoy the song?

I never NOT have a song stuck in my head. Literally 100 percent of the time there is music in my head. Right now it's "Hips Don't Lie" by Shakira lol

It never stops. Day, night, middle of night, half asleep. Doesn't matter.

They will last days (sometimes weeks) on end, only to be replaced (or joined) by another. I don't care when it's music I like, but all too often it's stuff I can't stand.
Often, there is more than one song playing simultaneously.

All jumbled together with thoughts jumping around or looping. It's very noisy up there.

I get this but of course it's crazy when hypo/manic. I will get a mash-up of music, phrases, scenes from movies. .I almost miss it lol

Yes! I've often almost wished for recording capabilities whereby I could record these things and overlay them in a way that approximates how it sounds in my head.

"Mash-up". Good word. Multiple mash-ups. Trouble. The sound of chaos.
Thanks for this!

anything but shakira, please!

she sounds like a strangled cat.

have you heard her in the chorus of when ever, where ever?

just...

on the subject of songs being stuck in your head, does anyone notice that actually, when the song's stuck in your head, it's the actual artist/ group singing it?
I notice that.. it's like you're listening to the actual cd version

then if your head isn't sure of a particular bit of the song, it just skips to a part it knows (yet the real artist is still singing it. it's weird)

and then their's the ones where you have a bit of the song on loop, and you keep wondering.. I know that, but where is it from?

what song.

and it drives you mad
