I mean besides a lobotomy.

For about 3 days now I've had that song "Stumblin' In" by Suzie Quatro stuck in my freakin' head, and it will NOT leave lol ...If I'm busy working or if my mind's occupied with too many issues, I'm ok. But as soon as even a small amount of space makes itself available, the damn chorus jumps to the front and starts repeating itself...stinkin' Leather Tuscadero.

Our love is alive
And so we begin
Foolishly laying our hearts on the table
Stumblin' in



I...can NOT...get...it...OUT!!

Any suggestions on what I can do? I've tried replacing it with other songs, but this is one potent mf'ing song lol ...I don't even know how it got in there to begin with ...After one whole day of unconsciously singing the thing to myself at every possibly moment, I made the mistake of going to YouTube to actually listen to the song again for the first time in like 20 years, thinking maybe if I heard it I would no longer need to put it on repeat in my cranium.

Big mistake. I think it just embedded the song deeper into my brain lol ...

And on that note:





Why should I suffer alone lol

Drink a pepsi!

Listening to instrumental tracks can help to get rid of earworm...

Good luck.

Listen to some other songs you like and maybe the new track will replace that one.

Listen to another song. Something long and good but not overly catchy. Don't want the earworm to replace itself.

Um...you guys may have missed the part where I said "I've tried replacing it with other songs" lol ...I mean, I can even hear the violin strings in the damn song ...


And sorry, Huey, even ABBA won't do the trick. ...

Maggot Brain usually works for me. You tried that one?

Only masturbating to a massive surge of internet porn will save ya then.

try using another song, blast it in your head (or sing aloud) until the first song gets unstuck.

if you play an instrument practice on it for a while. that works too.

good luck!

ooops, sorry guess i did. well, take heart. it will fade with time. all earworms burn themselves out eventually.

um, is that Pinky Tuscadaro's sister, Leather Tuscadaro????

Read something, you'll start focusing on that.

Songs usually get stuck when bored.

@ I Kissed A Girl.

Come work in the mall, where you hear the same old corny shit over and over all day long. Where's that I'm gonna shoot myself emoticon?

They are called ear worms ( repeat mental hang ups like songs )

I just did some reading about them while at the beach

I've had the song "Fingerbang" off of South Park stuck in my head for past 2 years.

I'm gonna fingerbang, bang you into my life
Girl, you like to fingerbang and it's alright
Cuz I'm the king of fingerbang, let's not fight
I'll just fingerbang, bang you every night

And I have to do the finger gun gestures every time I sing it. I must be stopped!

WORST song to get stuck in your head!

Sing a song of sixpense...that outta do it lol

I hate earworms, but I've found the only two things that get rid of them are time and/or another equally infecting song.

My daughter says, "go camping."

Yep ...

Oh, lawd...that song doesn't need to be stuck in your head because it gets played 40 million damn times a day lol ...

Two years? ...I don't feel so bad anymore lol

Mach said:

Oh, I know what I have lol...I just need a cure for it now ...

Lammastide said:

"Go camping" lol ...I actually wish I could, sounds like fun.

I wake up and THE very first thing that's on my mind is that chorus!! ...and then I laugh and kick the covers off in annoyance lol ...
