last song syndrome

You just reminded me of my past. My aunt used to live in one rented room and all of us used to land at her [place for summer holidays. Me and my cousines used to sleep on roof top in open. Her room was in a house whose owner has given one oer more room sets on rent and there were too many of us.So many different families lived in that house. she even cooked in the sdame room on a small kerosene stove. She might have lacked in money but never in love. that house had a culture of its own. someone would start a singing few words of a popular number someone else would hear it and then someone else and so on till you will realise the whole house is singing the same song and it used to get stuck with you even if you leave the house to go out for work or anything. we all used to laugh a lot at this trend but it was so funny and those days were lovely. I can never forget those days when all we needed was tin box to beat like a drum and if that was not aailabel any almirah or rubberband or comb was picked up for providing the music and we used to sing to our heart's content in the lazy warm afternoons. Its been a long time since then and we all have become so busy in our lives that those days are now only memories of the past.

This is an everyday thing for me. I sing with a band so I am always on the lookout for songs to do. It's become a habit to pick up on songs even unconsciously. I'll catch myself humming a tune and trying to figure out where in the heck I heard it!The biggest syndrome songs tend to be ones I hear over and over again, like commercials or themes to TV shows. The song that is the bain of my existance at the moment is the theme song to the TV show "Enterprise". They play like 4 shows back to back on Monday nights on the SciFi channel. I swear that has to be the worst song ever written for a TV show and now I have to hear it 4 times every Monday night. Sometimes I just can't take it and I have to hit the mute button on the remote. I love the show but that theme song almost makes me turn the channel! It's so bad it sticks in my brain like gum on the bottom of my shoe and I have to put on my headphones and listen to a song I like or I can't get to sleep.

yes I have, and I didn't know it has a name lol. nowadays the songs that keep singing in my head are those children songs, because every morning when I'm around my daughter, I listen to the music from the tv with her. this shouldn't be dangerous for me, right?

I have that syndrome all the time but I get stuck with the kids shows theme songs like sesame street or barney, i always have the tv on treehouse for the kid. So that is where my headsongs come from!

They've also coined this as "earworm". When a song keeps playing over and over in your head. Right now, the song that's playing in my head is Last Kiss by Pearl Jam. Why? Cause your topic says "LAST song syndrome" I much prefer Pearl Jam's version. Eddie Vedder did a great job on it. And it's such a sad song too!

well i have small kids so normally its dumb songs that they kids are playing or running around singing. like sponge bob or blues clues dives me nuts but i just can't get them out.

Often I get a song stuck in my head and I have no idea where it came from. Usually I get a song stuck in my head, like that that I hadn't been listening to. It is annoying really.

This happens to me all the time. Sometimes I swear I have a mini radio station in my head.lol. The song that plays is always different. A lot of times its a christmas song and I'm not sure why. Another one that plays a lot is "Don't Cry" by Seal. The song has special meaning to me. Right now your song is going through my head. That was originally a Barry Manilow song, wasn't it?

Yes I have done this before but did not really realize that ths was why my subconscience was still humming. Oh but it has not been any pathetic or crappy song it was a song of long ago when I was a child as my parents used to play music a lot of the time. Most of the songs I sing over and over are Eileen this song is very old and it was my mother's name.

yea i havw the same problem ... i recently saw the movie almost famous and a track called tiny dancer from it keeps playin in my head over and over again ... cant control it .... PEACE !!!

Lol, my daughter complains of this all the time!!! Then she gets mad cause she has a song that usually she doesnt like stuck in her head!!!! lol

Yes!The trouble is the ones that stick in my head are usually the most annoying,e.g adverts,kids tv theme tunes, even video game music!

It happens all the time to me, and what's worse is that I even pass it on to people I come in contact! Often I come to my desk, humming a tune and before I know it, someone else takes off from where I left off and shortly, it becomes an irritating mix of voices singing or humming the tune, many of them offkey! I have also noticed that I'm the guy who is most likely to affect people in this manner at my workplace, so if everybody is humming a tune, they automatically look at me in an accusatory way! Just yesterday, I was whistling the tune of Tokyo Drift, a new movie, and before long, people were whistling it away and a couple even downloaded the song and proceeded to play it in their cubicles!!!!

yep i experienced this one.. It was I need you by Mark Bautista.. I keep on singing the song even I dont know the lyrics.. My oficemates kept on teasing me that I am very much inlove that was why i am singing the love song..

Yup, it happens to me all the time. Especially when I go for mass, the last hymn gets stuck in my head and im singing and humming it all the way home or where ever else I happen to be going. I know my bf does that as well. I also noticed that if a colleague of mine is humming or sinigng a song or even listening to it, it gets stuck in my head. Fortunatley for me, nothing is stuck right now :p

well friend i am into realigion and listen to only songs in praise op god but some songs do linger on in yourmind.

Hope it's not a worst disease...LOL I also wonder why we suffer in this so-called last song syndrome??? Maybe it's just too much compassion to music. I even do have a last song syndrome, to be honest. While sitting in front of the PC, i even always listen to music, or just a song to be exact. While doing anything, i just listen to the song over and over again...until maybe you can play its instrumental... It's really stick with us, songs are easy to mem'rize after all....

i was driving on my way to my daughter's school. ihave my phone with me and the last song played was "we don't care-PDA" by john legend. i love this song and up to now i can still hear it in my mind and keep on humming them.

Synrdome is reality.It is more redundant when u got absolutely nothing to hear music on the way along like ipod or even a 'low battery pod'.i usually feel this as i put a nice song on some music device at home and hear it many times before i 'm gonna travel in some vehicle like bus (you may even hope tat if if u had a music ringing all around you on the way of departure).especially the piano tinkles and violin numbers of the song last heard remains still ringing in the head.And that tune remains in the mind during the travelling

yeah. ive experienced this a lot of times. sometimes it gets annoying though especially when someone has noticed you already. they would just approach you and tell you "hey girl! you've been singing that song almost an hour already! change the tune girl! " . isnt that annoying? hehehe.. is there any way to get rid of this?
