# Hah! You think YOU'VE got it bad?
I've had the Inspector Gadget theme in my head all day!

I'm just about ready to scoop my own brains out with a spoon.

# Horrible Histories theme today
last week, I had 'If You Tolerate This' by The Manics for about 4 days which very abruptly got replaced by Bananarama medleys

# for some horrific reason
when in my garden, I get obscure Chas 'n' Dave, for no reason I can ever fathom, other than I had it stuck in my head the last time I was in the garden

it's enough to drive one to distraction

# it becomes cyclical I think
you remember memories and the song comes back

The station announcements at Swindon station are preceded with 4 tones (a la Hi-De-Hi) and they are virtually identical to the opening 4 notes of Jerusalem which ends up in my head for hours after hearing them

# A popular remedy for earworms is to sing that bit at the start of It's Not Unusual
the bit without any real words: doop, de-doop, doop, de-doop. This chases out the other earworms, a bit like when they used to give people malaria to cure syphilis.
