    Re: Earworms!

    I've got to say I've enjoyed each one of these. I'd like to see more threads like this.

    This has been one of my long time favorites:
    Fragile was released on 26 November 1971 on Atlantic Records. It was YES' first album recorded with keyboardist Rick Wakeman after the departure of Tony Kaye earlier in the year. It consists of nine tracks, four of which are group performances while five are solo features written by each


    To my surprise Yes is still performing in the same genre, just new musicians.
    Some of you seniors may even remember hearing them ... if you haven't damaged your hearing by turning up the stereo all the way.

    ... what did you say? =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

        I had heard this song in a Mazda commercial the other day. I had heard it before and it is a catchy tune. I liked the video too.

          Got to see the movie "Oblivion" for the first time last weekend. It's not Star Wars or even Alien grade science fiction, but such is the current state of the art.
          Still, the ending credits had this for accompaniment:

          and now that's an earworm for me.

                        Always liked this song. I'm always furiously drumming on the steering wheel when I hear it.

                          Huh, the classics? OK, let's see if this will work:

                          It was the lead in music to the Friday night movies back in the day.
                          Oh, great, now this is stuck in my brain. I'll just go away.

                            I remember that hit tune called Popcorn by the MOOG electronic syntherizer. The first of its kind use for synth-music in the 70's. I believe it took up 3 or 4 suitcases to carry it around. The same electronics now fit on a match head.
                            Catchy tune all the same.... Love the 3D animation.

                              The catchy guitar riff
                              The simple lyrics
                              The beat


                              This one sticks in my head all the time...
