T-Bay Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 I have a cure for annoying ear worm -peaches by the Stranglers, it clears anything and happens to be the first song I ever learned to play on a bass. Quote
TheGreek Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 Since we're out with the dogs, I often resort to whistling "Brown eyed girl" which is where Shalla gets her name..."cos we used to sing, Shalla la lala lala....etc) NB: it doesn't always work. Quote
Newfoundfreedom Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 Drive, by Joe Bonamassa. A member of my band wanted to play it a couple of weeks ago so we learned it and I absolutely hated it. It bored the sh#t out of me. Now a couple of weeks later I can't get it out of my head. Quote

TheGreek Posted September 24, 2018 Posted September 24, 2018 Ear worm?? but which is worse "Soft kitty" or "Smelly"? I accept that loads of hate mail will follow... Quote
MoonBassAlpha Posted September 24, 2018 Posted September 24, 2018 You should check out Ally Craig's rather wonderful version of Smelly Cat on soundcloud. (can't link to it at work ) Quote

Delberthot Posted September 24, 2018 Posted September 24, 2018 Ride like the Wind but it goes between the Christopher Cross version and the Saxon version randomly The song for getting other songs out of my head is Sikamikanico by the Chilis Quote
davepb24 Posted September 27, 2018 Posted September 27, 2018 Have in the last couple of days just got the line "drop an atom bomb on me" stuck in my head and for the life of me can't remember the song.... mid 80s, chirpy Scottish pop band (or singer at least) s I recall. Google no help...anybody know anything? Quote
Jonse Posted September 27, 2018 Posted September 27, 2018 Yeah, The Doors - Soul Kitchen. Ray Manzarek is probably one of my favourite (key) bass players! Fantastic. 1 Quote
bassbiscuits Posted September 28, 2018 Posted September 28, 2018 Annoyingly I have one of my own unfinished songs stuck in my head at the moment. Its a decent melody but the words aren't right, but now the whole thing, including the 'wrong' words, is wedged in my head. It kept me awake all night on Wednesday. Doing my head right in. 1 Quote

Frank Blank Posted September 29, 2018 Posted September 29, 2018 (edited) I have this version of Take Five, from the excellent TV programme Jazz 625, stuck in my head at the moment. As Steve Race explains at the beginning of the clip it’s unusual inasmuch as Dave Brubeck takes a solo, a solo I am pointlessly trying to transcribe to play on the bass, there is something about the simple beginning of his solo that really puts the hook in me... ...just as an aside I was watching this evenings episode of The Art of Drumming (excellent series btw) on Sky Arts and this lead me to ponder who is, in fact, my favourite drummer. Usually I’d say Sigtryggur Baldursson (well, attempt to say it and fail) but in light of the programme I was considering my dislike of drum solos, unless they are drum solos played by Joe Morello who manages to make them interesting and cool, I’m rambling, in summary... Joe Morello = coolest drummer. Edited September 29, 2018 by Frank Blank I took five. Quote
Merton Posted September 29, 2018 Posted September 29, 2018 Last night I had to learn Girls Just Wanna Have Fun for a gig today. So now I’ve got I Wanna Dance With Somebody stuck in my head instead. 🤔 Quote
