I'm sure we're all familiar with those annoying musics that lodge themselves in our brains then latch on to our sanity synapses and reroute all of our sensibilities to the grey matter equivalent of absolute HELL...

...like the song in those Vonage TV ads. What the deuce?

But have you ever gotten anything good stuck in your head? Something that you didn't mind being there? I sometimes find myself humming musics in the morning shortly after I wake up. The sad part is, thems be the same tunes I was humming the night before when I went to bed. They get stuck all night! Hours, or sometimes days, I have the same music coexisting with my conciousness.

But it's alright. I mean, the musics never, ever leave, but they're good stuff. I often find myself with some Star Wars or F-Zero X music stuck in my head all day, but it's a pleasant alternative to the mind-numbing bubbling of fries and the ever-present "sssssssss" of meat on the grill for hours on end. ('Tis the joy of working at a restaurant)

What about you guys? You ever get anything appealing stuck in your brain that leaves you smiling as opposed to smashing your head into the wall? If so, what kinds of music do you involuntarily listen to under such circumstances?

Shadow the Hedgehog music msotly... although lost woods themes and other random songs. Sometime lyrics too.

All of it is VG music though.

I don't have it often, but recent examples I can recall are the Yoshi's Island music and Indiana Jones.

I get good music stuck in my head quite often, although sometimes it STAYS stuck there, usually when I can't sleep, and eventually turns into annoying music.

I constantly get VG music stuck in my head usually after playing a video game or listening to it in Winamp. I usually don't mind it.

In keeping with my recent Earthbound kick, I often get the mix "Twoson Hits The Road" from Overclocked Remix stuck in my head. It's very catchy, and I don't mind humming it all the time as I work, either. Here's a link to it.

I also periodically get the area 1-1 theme to Super Mario Bros. 2 stuck in my head, as well as its Super Buck Jazz remix on Overclocked. I'll give a link to that too.

And then there's "Live and Learn", the music to the final battle of Sonic Adventure 2... That's always fun.

Sammy Nestico's "Pressure Cooker"...

Ice Cap Zone Act 1...

Chocobo theme from FF7... Man, that song's addictive.

The worst part is that I tend to whistle or hum these songs aloud to myself as I work, so I must look like a complete loser as I do... But hey, at least I work surrounded by video games. I suppose eventually someone will come in and be like "Hey, that's the theme to Super Mario Brothers 2!" and I'll be like "YEAH IT IS DUDE" and the rest will be history.

Oh, oh... I forgot about the Brinstar Theme from Metroid and Zero Mission. Get that stuck in there all the time.

Eesh, that's somewhat of a list... And I didn't even list the contemporary stuff that gets stuck.

Anyway, I get the occasional song stuck, usually just short segments though and usually not very good stuff. I did get the Gundam X opening stuck once though, that was nice. More recently I got something good stuck as well, can't remember what though.

Sometimes, I get not-quite-a-music stuck in my head. Just the smallest concievable fragment of a music that's stored in my memory somewhere. It's typically just a few notes (as in: fewer than 10), but I recognize it as something that I... uh... recognize.

And then I spend much of the day playing those notes over and over in my head, trying with the audacity of a thousand fire ants to recollect the few notes that come before it or follow the given segment. I can't help but think if I think too much, I might lose the tune and forever be left to wonder what it was.

Fortunately, that hasn't happened to me, yet. Every time to date, I eventually uncover what the full version of the music was and then I'm content to sleep that night.

The same kinda thing happens when I hear one piece of a music within another music, but am reminded of the first. Especially with plagiarism. I've found two cases in City of Heroes musics where this has happened. The Hotzone music seems to borrow a sound effect from a music in Test Drive 4 and the J21 music from City of Villains, which is often used in Heroes' sewer missions, has a sound that's remarkably close to the one in Mr. EAD's tune from F-Zero GX.

Well... yeah. Partial musics make me think long and hard about what the rest of the music was.

I always get the music I am constantly hearing on my computer stuck on my head. At the moment I'm on vacation, and I can still remember the 20 music tracks I've last heard. And I mean the whole tracks.
Video game music is easiest to get stuck in my head.

If there's like a horrible music, it gets stuck too, and then everytime I try to think, I am forced to remember that music. After a few days I usually forget them in favor of better tracks.

Nothing is good if it's stuck in your head for too long. There's no better way to ruin a good song forever than by overplaying it.

Sometimes though... having a song stuck in the head that you haven't actually heard in a long time can be cool because when you finally get to hear it it's immensely satisfying.

That happens to me, but in a few annoying cases, I never end up finding out where it came from. My best guess is I made it up or saw it on some obscure TV show as I walked by the TV.

There's this one song by a band called The Streets... it's ALWAYS in my head. But I can never remember all the words, so sometimes all I have is a beat.

I like the song though, so I'm not too irritated by it.

Wrong. One-Winged Angel is in my head all the time, and it STILL never gets old. But hey, I'm a fanboy, so what can you say?
