Terrible Songs That Get Stuck In Your Head

This week the b5media Music Channel is having yet another list style theme day. The theme this week is “10 One Hit Wonder Band & Songs I Can’t Get Out of My #!@%ing Head“. Unfortunately this has been a tough one for me. I can’t think of any Metal One Hit Wonders who’s songs get stuck in my head. However I can think of all sorts of terrible songs that get stuck in my head whenever I hear just the smallest part of the song or a word that has some significance to the song. Here is my list of 5 terrible songs that every now and then get stuck in my head and it drives me nuts.

Right Said Fred I’m Too Sexy. I hate this song as does 99% of the world but it’s one of those songs that terribly difficult to get out of your head when there is no other music around to hear and wash it away.

Barry Manilow- Copa Cabana. If I hear someone say the words “Lola” Showgirl” or “Copa” this song is set in my mind for at least a half hour or until I hear something else or get a better song stuck in my head.

The Kinks - Lola. The only thing I can do to get this song out of my head is to change the words up and make my own humorous mix of it.

Urge Overkill- Girl You’ll Be A Woman Soon. I don’t know all the words to this song but everytime there is an advertisement for Pulp Fiction they play this song and it always gets stuck. Not necessarily a terrible song…but I don’t care for it and I don’t like it stuck in my head.

Mini Riperton- Lovin’ You. I had to look that one up on Amazon.com. Anyway It’s an annoying song and easily get stuck in my head.

Honorable Mentions are Don’t Cha Wish by The Pussycat Dolls (My wife listens to that shit sometimes) and The Black Eyed Peas, My Humps (She listens to them too) She tolerates my music so I have to tolerate hers sometimes as well. I just try to put some headphones on or go in another room.

Now just because I said these songs get stuck in my head does not mean that I am singing them out loud. I do have my pride to think about. The best thing I can do to get songs like these out of my head is to put something on that just rips through your skull like a runaway freight train. Songs Like Lunatic Of God’s Creation by Deicide or Morbid Angel’s Rapture. Unless you’re totally unexposed to the songs or similar songs, then you too are susceptible to this problem. Don’t try to act as if you’re too “Metal” to have it happen to you.
