Songs Stick in Everyone's Head
'Earworms' Bother Women, Musicians Most
By Daniel J. DeNoon
WebMD Medical NewsFeb. 27, 2003 -- They bore into your head. They won't let go. There's no known cure. Earworms can attack almost anyone at almost any time.


No, it's not an invasion of jungle insects. It's worse. Earworms are those songs, jingles, and tunes that get stuck inside your head. You're almost certain to know the feeling, according to marketing professor James J. Kellaris, PhD, of the University of Cincinnati.


Nearly 98% of people have had songs stuck in their head, Kellaris reported at the recent meeting of the Society for Consumer Psychology. The 559 students -- at an average age of 23 -- had lots of trouble with the Chili's "Baby Back Ribs" Jingle and with the Baha Men song "Who Let the Dogs Out." But Kellaris found that most often, each person tends to be haunted by their own demon tunes.


"Songs with lyrics are reported as most frequently stuck (74%), followed by commercial jingles (15%) and instrumental tunes without words (11%)," Kellaris writes in his study abstract. "On average, the episodes last over a few hours and occur 'frequently' or 'very frequently' among 61.5% of the sample."


Here's the students' top-10 earworm list:


Other. Everyone has his or her own worst earworm.
Chili's "Baby Back Ribs" jingle.
"Who Let the Dogs Out"
"We Will Rock You"
Kit-Kat candy-bar jingle ("Gimme a Break ...")
"Mission Impossible" theme
"YMCA"
"Whoomp, There It Is"
"The Lion Sleeps Tonight"
"It's a Small World After All"

...
Who let the dogs out? ... :-)

Are these pants getting tighter or is it just me?

I am sure it is you... yes, I am sure it is you.  :-)
You peeked!

I have to admit, Brigitte pretty much embodies all that a sex kitten should be.

They just don't build them like that anymore.

I know I'm in the midst of writing an extremely graphic story but I miss the classic ways of leaving things to the imagination. I just DL'ed a crapload of Cary Grant movies such as Father Goose and That Touch of Mink because I appreciate how much they could say with so little dialogue and imagery.
