How do you get a song out of your head? Soggy Send a noteboard - 08/09/2009 05:40:49 PM
We've all been there, a song stuck in your head on instant repeat for five days straight with no signs of going away. For me it's currently "Once in a Lifetime" by the Talking Heads, which is an ear worm of a song if ever there was one.

So how do you get them out generally? All my usual methods have failed me.

Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down...
