Pluggers by Rick McKee for January 03, 2019

if there’s a song that gets stuck in my head, I try to find it on YouTube so I can actually know if that’s what it was

I wonder if the “candyman” is a drug dealer

Music makes the world go round .

“I’m Henry the eighth, I am, ’enry the eighth I am, I am …”

Walking on Broken Glass (1992) by Annie Lennox is an ear worm to me. And I like it!

I don’t think it’s just pluggers who wonder about that!

I’m sure there’s gov’t sponsored research on this.

I protest, Candy Man is a GOOD song.

I just imagine Sammy’s voice and it’s all good.

oh for the love of…….now that stupid song will be playing all day in MY head…grrrrrr

When a song gets stuck in your head, just close your eyes and imagine you are walking to a radio and turn the radio off. Sometimes this actually works.

I often have 5 or 6 songs going through my mind at the same time…… I have to take meds to slow my head down.

I agree with the other commenters on Sammy’s voice on this one. From the first time I heard it I was blown away. He was in AWESOME voice (and I don’t use that word!) The song may be trite but his voice is ALWAYS worth it!

They say if you look into a mirror and say ‘Candyman’ three times Sammy Davis Jr appears.

I get earworms most when I’m wound up. I can often get rid of them by calming down and imagining some music that I really like. Earworms for me are usually very short, catchy pieces… I have to counteract them with more complicated bits of music.
