Why do we get "earworms"?
« on: August 16, 2018, 16:22 »
Every day when I get up I have some tune that rattles round my head for most of the day and I can't fathom it out as to why it happens. Anyone got any clue?
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

I get that everyday as well.  Todays is 'Jesus wants me for a Sunbeam'    Don't ask, I don't know where that came from - Sunday School maybe.   For a few days, its been the song from 'Unforgotten'   My Worlds upside Down.   Mentally hummed in a whisper of course.  :lol: :lol:  Mrs Bouquet

Getting up this morning I had a song with charades in its title. Yesterday I had the Cornish Dance. What will tomorrow bring?  :unsure:
