Im pretty sure this is normal, but for the sake of staying away from doctor google, is it normal that I like ALWAYS have a song stuck in my head? Any time I'm at work or focusing on a task, I realize I have a song playing in my head. Is this normal?

[Phuzella]

Yep annoying isn't it :D

Yes! It's called an ear worm... we do it to each other, it's like a gift/joke.

They can be easily triggered. I saw a picture/meem on facebook, when you said the picure out loud it was the words to a boy George song, oh man it was stuck in my head for days lol
I showed it to my husband, he was walking around the house singing it ha ha...
This is a symtom you can enjoy!

I get this too and strangely enough it's nearly always a song I don't even like ha!

I'm annoyed because I've listened to a recently released album by a band I like so many times that several of its songs have been going round in my head for days. I don't even know whether I like it or not anymore! :wacko:


^^ Not the best sentence I ever wrote.

Yes that happens to most people I think.

I have this often, always have. It's just annoying but nothing to worry about.

totally normal but also for me it's a lot "worse" or more noticeable when i'm anxious. when my anxiety is bad it seems to escalate from maybe having a song somewhere in my mind to being quite "loud" and "fast" and at the front of my mind, i guess it just goes hand in hand with the mind speeding up.
