You know, like, "It's a small world after all", the theme to Gilligan's Island, Green Acres! Which ones annoy you?? Jump in Zoomzoom!!😃😉
I can handle those...
For me, it is the continuously repeating commercial jingles.
"...I have type-2 diabetes but I manage it well ...a little pill with a big story to tell".
To make sure you can never rinse it out of your head, they play it every 30 minutes ON EVERY CHANNEL!gaah.
...I have more:mad:.

Not a song but a jingle. I think that it was a Huggies commercial where they sing "I'm a big kid now". Since about day 4 of our puppy arriving that goes through my mind every time she goes out with the "big kids". She weighed almost 4 lbs then & she would go out & try to play & keep up with the big kids, they weigh between 17 & 22 lbs. Being a dachshund she has grown longer since then but she's a miniature so she is still tiny compared to them.

Fortunately this one is finally fading away, but it was drilled into my head daily, for months. :(
"You can sell all or part,, live your life and play it smart ...and sell your policy!"

Catchy tune, huh?gaah
 
The one below. Who can tell me what movie it is from?

I had to look it up. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Green_Leaves_of_Summer

"The Green Leaves of Summer", composed by Dimitri Tiomkin with lyrics by Paul Francis Webster, was written for the 1960 film The Alamo.[1]

Popular culture[edit]​

The song received renewed interest when Nick Perito's version was featured in the title sequence of the 2009 film Inglourious Basterds, directed by Quentin Tarantino.[7]
 
Ugh that Jardiance commercial....

How about, "I want to be sedated"
or "The Safety Dance"
A granddaughter of ours loved "Dumb Ways to Die" and that one drove me nuts
At least I was nice enough to post the video in another thread :rolleyes: .
...You need another commercial jingle to stick in your head?
I got more:waiting:.

How could we forget that one!!! gaah
How about it with a new twist?:D
...Just for the libs hiding in the closet out there:

(not a commercial jingle:rolleyes:).
 
There was some movie way back when, and the main character was on a cross country bus where someone else was trying to get all the passengers to sing along with him. Except they would get the first line or two of lyrics and then forget the rest of the words. Then someone starting singing old TV theme songs and everyone joined in (except the main character). The crowd knew the entire words to every theme song. The main character was plugging his ears or shaking his head or something. the entire bus was happy, except for the main character.

I probably have the details wrong - my memory isn't that good - but the above is what's in my failing memory, the jist of what happened.

When I was in high school, in the marching band, the crowd always went wild when we played the Hawaii 5-0 theme song. That was a helluva fun song to play. At least if you played trumpet or drums. I think the trombones probably had a blast too.

the small world one definitely!!! LOL have you ever been on that Disney ride? They play it the entire long ride, and of course the kids really loved that ride when they were like 3
I wonder if they still have that ride with the same song
 
I couldn't sleep a wink last night. I kept hearing in my head, Lara's Theme from Dr. Zhivago. Over and over. It's not a bad song, but after the 27,000th replay in my head, I just gave up on sleeping and got up.

IMHO that happens to all of us quite frequently. You get a song stuck in your head and it rattles around like a B-B in a box car. You can't get rid of it. I bet if you asked a doctor they would have a name for it.

Remember the song Precious and Few circa 1971-72? It was part of an NCIS episode last night, and now it is stuck in my head. I remember it well from when it was released. Now I will remember it forever. :dunno:
