When I get one, I play the song at least 10 times in a row. That usually clears it out of my mind. But just now “Moonlight Dancing” by Bette Midler just entered my head and it is far too late to play as it would wake my husband.
To get rid of an ear worm I usually have to listen to Ernest Tubb and Aerosmith at the same time to drive it out. Yes, sometimes my ears bleed from it…
Best way to get rid of an earworm is to sing a short commercial jingle to yourself. Those don’t stick. Try it. “Plop, Plop. Fizz, fizz. Oh, what a relief it is.”

I once had “Puff the Magic Dragon” stuck in my head for three days while the family was moving our house trailer to another military base.
