    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    before WE posted his thread, I was managing not to look. But it is a regular occurrence. Signposts, plants, casual remarks, people's names. They can all trigger songs that stick for days

    @wild edges you're  an 🍑 hole. That one is worse than April Come She Will!
    But at least it makes a change. I will try not to focus on The Bachelors' cover version.

    I was just about to ask you if it was that thread @B3.
    Despite being an S&G fan, I can't say it made me think of that lovely Paul Simon song.

    I admit to singing a song if my daughter says something to trigger it. It's now got to the stage where she sings the song before me. A favourite being one from the Judy Garland A Star is Born. #The Man That Got Away. She starts singing then says 'Mum - why am I doing this now? It's all your fault'

    @B3 - maybe playing a CD of S&G will give you a better ear worm tho I do rather like that one.  I've had Adèle's Old Friend going round for days now and I don't even like it.

    I'm still suffering from the music Liz Truss used to march onto the stage at their party conference.
