Getting songs stuck in your head is kind of a double edged sword. One the one hand it's really cool if you're bored because hey, songs on repeat. And on the other, it can get really, really annoying hearing the same thing over and over again. It also depends on whether or not you actually like the song. If you don't, it really sucks. Like that Rebecca Black song, Friday. That song is just annoying. There is literally nothing good about it. The best thing that came from it is someone took the lyrics and made it sound like Bob Dylan sang it first (Link). If you saw the comments from before everyone figured it out was fake, they were hilarious. People were totally making things up like "I remember seeing you play this in 19XX, greatest song ever!" and others were psycho analyzing the entire song. It even made it to the front page of Reddit for awhile. Anywho, here are some songs that have been on repeat for over a week in my head.
Songs that are stuck in my head;
My Friends Over You- New Found Glory
On Top of the World- T.I. feat. B.o.B.
My Life Be Like (Ooh Aah)- Grits
I love the Dylan spoof. I'd never actually heard the R. Black song, so I had to listen to that first (though I could only listen to about 30 seconds of it because it's so awful - the reports were not exaggerated), but it was worth it to hear the "Dylan" version. Very funny.
ReplyDeleteSort of a wee little post, but together with the Monday post, this will do.
I really don't like Friday (the song). I've tried to keep my exposure to songs like that down. Toot it and boot it is also a dumb song that gets stuck in my head...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWlMhiEL9Mc
ReplyDeleteMy guilty pleasure is kiss me through the phone by soulja boy. It's one of the songs I don't mind stuck in my head.
It's kind of ironic that you posted this on Friday, and then proceeded to recommend Friday (the song). Anyways, this was a delightful post that shed insight on how irritating some songs can be when they are stuck in one's head. Good job.
