Simple enough. If you get a song stuck in your head for the better part of a day, post it here. Explain why you think it refused to leave if you like.

It's strange. I don't find the Game Grumps entertaining at all and I can't stand most of EgoRaptor's videos (Sequelitis has its moments), but I like Starbomb and Ninja Sex Party. The first time I heard Luigi's Ballad, I wanted to listen to it over-and-over for hours. Part of it is that Ninja Brian's music is quality work, so it sounds like something bigger than a collection of funny raps about video games. A few days ago, I heard Hero of Rhyme and it blew me away. The premise is funny, EgoRaptor has impressive rhythm and lyrics, and the music itself effectively alternates between funky and climactic. For those reasons, it's been running off and on in head for the last day or so. Okay. If you're going to be stuck with a song, it might as well be a good one.

This happens to me a lot, but at the time of this post the song that's been stuck in my head is "Dreamer" by the gothic metal band Elysion.

Reason why? As of late I've kinda been listening to a lot of goth music in general, be it old school goth like The Cure and Bauhaus, more dance club centric EBM groups like Shiv-r and Combichrist, or bands that fit into the "gothic metal" label like Elysion, HIM, and Within Temptation. For some reason this specific song by Elysion has been the one getting the most stuck.

I actually have one more song that got stuck in my head recently for another reason. "Lola" by the French band Superbus.

Why? I was recently playing Assassin's Creed: Unity and despite being a game set in Revolution-era France I was oddly in the mood to listen to modern French music. Also amusingly I'd say this game has made my pronunciation of some French words better (sorry for the quick off topic moment, but I wanna say real quick that I don't buy Ubisoft's reasoning for everyone speaking in British accents in the English language audio though, since they had no issues with the characters in the Ezio trilogy sounding like Italian's speaking English; I think the only reason why Ubisoft, a French company, avoided the French accents is because being Frenchman themselves they would know too easily how unauthentic any non-French VAs would sound; lucky for them the next game, Syndicate, is set in England, so at least there everyone sounding British makes the most sense it possibly could make).

Fuck you StylesX2 for putting this song in my head. I couldn't get rid of it since 2 months ago.

I dunno, I like the old ragtime kind of music. My friend got me to download Hatsune Miku Project Diva and this is probably the only song I managed to actually beat on Hard. I'm honestly not a huge fan of Vocaloid either, but some artists are really good (I personally like Livetune a lot).

I must have played this song a billion times by now in the last few days. I just really like everything about this track: the vocals, the guitar, the drums the whole shebang! It also kinda gets me emotional, its made me feel really happy listening to it as well as really sad another time I listened to it. I like Avicii and the original song too, its just this version just sticks with me more for some reason.

I must have heard this one way too many times by now, all thanks to the power of the pan flute and its overall tranquil feel. I heard it first when I watched the first film of Kill Bill (and I suppose it was there when the song started being recognized everywhere).

These two songs get stuck in my head from time to time. They are catchy and the absurdity of the lyrics are the reason.

First song is just some ramdom song I heard that I happen to like. Last two been in my head all day after watching some playthroughs. Gets me a little emotional.

@Dac
Oingo Boingo's song was also stuck in my head not that long ago after I watched LeoPirate's video exposing the pedophilic discussions of a certain infamous person (he used "Little Girls" as the intro song for the video).

@thread in general

Here's two of the latest songs to get stuck in my head:

IMO the catchiest battle theme in Undertale, the beat and that awesome chiptune get stuck in my head so easily I find myself humming the tune randomly.

I waited a good number of years to hear new stuff from Breaking Benjamin and this song was worth the wait. Benjamin himself may be the only consistent member of the band, but hey the band wouldn't be the same without his vocals. The part near the end in particular really sticks out in my mind.

I've recently found quite a lot of enjoyment listening to Kendrick Lamar's latest album To Pimp A Butterfly; I could say that the whole album is stuck in my head, so I'll instead just post two of my favorite songs from the album (even though they're all my favorite):

Also, this song from The Outfield is really fucking good really catchy:

And because I'm still playing MGSV:

Right now:

Recently (And by that I mean about 4-5 months ago) discovered folk punk and I'm addicted.
Is this like, insanely catchy to anyone else or am I the only one?

Necroing my own thread because fuck the world and everything in it.

I have so many songs getting stuck in my head I can't even list them all here.
I'll just leave this here as a reference

I find it much better than remove kebab

REMOVE KEBAB FROM LONG RANGE!

Is like trying to beat The Guy in Gaiden when you've finally made it.

I'm gonna look pretty basic here, but I stumbled on this song on the radio, and just have had it in my mind all day. Pop has some crazy 'stuck in your head' qualities to it.
