    Yeah, there’s nothing like humming a song about DEATH right before you’re headed off to sleepyland.

    Songs must be installed properly, with the correct orientation, or they will become stuck.

    Goodbye Michelle it’s hard to die

    When all the birds are singing in the sky

    With the flowers everywhere

    I wish that we could both be there

    Think how long you’d stay awake if “In the Year 2525” got stuck in your brain.

    I worked in a pizza place that had it on the juke box. It also had “Tie a Yellow Ribbon,” “Peaceful Easy Feeling,” and “Baby It’s a Wild World.”. There were some others I’ve blanked out but may remember soon.

    My usual ear worm defense is to sing the music to Edvard Grieg’s “In the Hall of the Mountain King”" OUT LOUD in Popeye’s sing-songy chuckle.

    It will drive any ear worm or near-by person away, practically guaranteed.

    I remember hearing the Kingston Trio sing that. My most hated earworm (DRUMROLL): “There’s no place like home for the holidays.”

    Anyone for “The Merry Minuet?” Also by the KT. “…and some lovely day, someone will set the spark off, and we will all be blown away.”

    I deal with earworms by thinking of parodies. Deal with Christmas music by imagining it sung in the singsong Bob Dylan style. Or, in this case, “We had joy we had fun we ate doughnuts by the ton…”

    To jam an earworm, simply add another one! Your brain won’t run two earworms at once (I use Pop Goes The Weasel). Try it! Before you know it, the inside of your head’ll be full of white noise the way Nature intended.
