Seems like just about every morning I wake with a song rattling around in my head, usually a tune I've not heard in years. I'm still laughing because this morning I was hearing John Mellencamps's Jack and Diane swirling around in my head.
"Oh yeah, life goes on/ Long after the thrill of living is gone."
How many can relate to that? lol

Every time this one comes on satellite, it's in my head for at least a day afterward. Not that I mind, as I love the song. Brings me back to a much more innocent time in my life.

At least a day? That's nuthin'. I'm a compulsive whistler, and I will whistle the same damn song for three or four days. Even I get tired of it. On weekends or evenings when it's been a few days, my wife will eventually say "new song!".

I have a song I call my "scrubber", which I immediately start running through my head as soon as some unwanted earworm sets in; "Tumbling Dice", The Rolling Stones.
Works pretty much every time.

Two nights ago, I was grocery shopping, the McCartney song "Silly Love Songs" played in the background..... I couldn't get it out of my head 'til I fell asleep roughly four hours later.........
The wacky part is I never really cared for that song.......

This morning's selection - Steve Goodman's Chicken Cordon Blues"
Last week I had "Tie me kangaroo down..."
Brings this one to mind -
"Well, they're sharing a drink they call loneliness, but it's better than drinking alone."
You just triggered this Gwen Stefani ear worm in my head.No Doubt

Regarding this song, my wife huffed, "So we went from a whiny British guy to a whiny American girl."

During the 86/87 school year, my friend and classmate Jill was in both Chemistry and Latin with me. Her light, bubbly personality always uplifted my spirits. In the 5 minutes before class started, she and I would share Walkmen [I didn't get a Discman until the school year had ended] and cassettes.
Jill wasn't just blonde; she was platinum blonde. Headphones on, hair in a pony tail, Jill just shrugged, "When I get old, and my hair turns white, no one will notice."
On one of those Winter '87 quarters, no rain in sight, weather sunny and warm, that boring chem class just made time stand still. Jill sauntered in, bobbing to Glass Tiger's "Someday." Jill and I had the same initials. Because we were seated alphabetically by last name, it just so happened that Jill and I sat side by side, in adjacent rows. Usually chewing gum, Jill would always smile, lean over, and pass notes to me in chem class. While we had a break, as the teacher went to the back room to get lab supplies, Jill popped out the cassette of Glass Tiger's The Thin Red Line , glanced at it, said, "Thin Red Line?," looked down at her pubis, and remarked, "Isn't that when your period starts?"
Those of us around her groaned, and thus, didn't feel like listening to the title track. But "Thin Red Line" is one of those cool secondary tracks, which add depth to your playlist. And wouldn't you know it. While you had "Jack And Diane" swirling in your head, when I woke up, I had "Thin Red Line" in mine :-)

it takes me back to first hearing the soundtrack at Sea Cliff. "Air" will knock your socks off - especially on the big Nolas or Scaenas. The following band 07 - Stone in My Heart is also a favorite. :)
Great album, and memories- Lummy.
