Like many others, I am prone to getting a song stuck in my head. All day long I'll be humming, whistling, or singing the same tune, unable to escape the melody. I'm not usually too bothered by this, but sometimes they get stuck for just too darn long. I can usually remedy the problem by listening to the song, and then listening to something else. I do occasionally get a new song stuck, but mostly these songs come from my formative years, songs I've known and loved for decades. In fact, these are all from the sixties. Here's my top five most likely to be earworms for me:
5. Suspicious Minds- Elvis Presley Elvis's last number one, and one of his best.
How much you miss me
When the last time I saw you
You wouldn't even kiss me
That rich guy you've been seein'
Must have put you down
So welcome back baby
To the poor side of town
The birds sing and day's begun
The heavens shine from dawn to dusk
With golden rays of sun
People on their way
Beginning a brand new day
I love hearing people say
It's a beautiful day today
Cups make it into one of the great girl group singles, and again, a number one hit.
I'll be his and he'll be mine
We'll love until the end of time
And we'll never be lonely anymore
Because we're goin' to the chapel
And we're gonna get married
Goin' to the chapel
And we're gonna get married
Gee, I really love you
And we're gonna get married
Goin' to the chapel of love
I got caught in the rush hour
You with love and affection
On the expressway to your heart
The expressway, not the best way
At five o'clock it's much too crowded
Much too crowded, so crowded
Oh, too crowded
