""Oh, I would walk 500 miles and I would walk 500 more just to be the man who walked a thousand miles to end up at your door...""
 * Canon and Gigue in D Major for Three Violins and Bass Continuo by Johann Pachelbel ... not that anyone remembers the Gigue.
 * "Pachelbel's following me. It sounds paranoid, but he's following you, too..." - Yeah, I dare you to listen to that. Not only will you get the Canon in D earwormed, but then you'll start hearing it EVERYWHERE...
 * Amanda Palmer has many of these, but what takes the cake is her recent single, Map of Tasmania. Not only is it delightfully dirty, it also gets caught in your head, thirty seconds in.
 * Panic! at the Disco:
 * "But It's Better If You Do"
 * "I Write Sins Not Tragedies": haven't you people ever heard of / closing the G** D*** door...
 * "Lying is the Most Fun a Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off": testosterone boys and harlequin girls...
 * "The Ballad of Mona Lisa": woah-oh-oh-oh/Mona Lisa/your guaranteed to run this town...
 * "Ready to Go (Get Me Out of My Mind)": I'm Ready to gooooooo-o-o-o. Woah-o-o-o-o...
 * The Paper Chase:
 * "Good things die/All the time/God bless your heart/Vengeance is mine/Kiss me like you mean goodbye/Said the spider to the fly/And all those times y'thought that YOU WERE WRONG, YOU WERE RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!"
 * "It's getting closer/It's right around the corner/Something is coming for me/It's getting closer/It's getting closer to me..."
 * Paramore can make you sing even if you're not a fan of theirs:
 * "Ba-dada, ba-dada, dada!"
 * "Ignorance is your new best friend!"
 * "I'm in the business of misery / let's take it from the top..."
 * "They taped over your mouth / Scribbled out the truth with their lies / Your little spies..."
 * "I got a lot to say to you / Yeah, I got a lot to say..."
 * "Crush crush CRUSH!"
 * "How did we get here? / I used to know you so well"
 * "That what you get when you let your heart win WHOAAAAA OH OHHHHH!"
 * "You, are, the only exception. You, are, the only exception."
 * "EVERYBODY SING, LIKE IT'S THE LAST SONG YOU WILL EVER SING!"
 * Pretty much anything by Passion Pit would qualify. Shout outs go to three songs in particular: "Little Secrets" (the children's choir makes it), "Cuddle Fuddle", and "Sleepyhead", dear God, "Sleepyhead".
 * British musicians Patrick & Eugene are made of earworm:
 * "The Birds and the Bees" has been used on some commercials
 * "Don't Stop"
 * "Llama" might have you asking "What's your favourite ungulate?" over and over again.
 * Patrick Stump has This City.
 * Pavement: Summer Babe, Cut Your Hair, Embassy Row, Heaven Is A Truck, Spit On A Stranger,Gold Soundz, Here, Range Life, Stereo, Rattled By the Rush, Two States, The Unseen Power of the Picket Fence, and Trigger Cut. The list goes on and on...
 * Peaches:
 * Fuck the pain away! FUCK THE PAIN AWAY!
 * Can you cut the mustard to clear the custard?
 * Pearl Jam:
 * "Even Flow". Even if no one hears the lyrics right.
 * "Jeremy", also counts
 * "Oh, I, Oh, I'm Still Alive!"
 * "She lies and she says she's in love with him, can't find a better man!"
 * "Oh, where, Oh, where can my baby be?"
 * "Fight to get it back again, yeah, yeah, yeah!"
 * Pendulum:
 * Propane Nightmares: In a trail of fire I know we will be free again / In the end we will be one / In a trail of fire I'll burn before you bury me / Set your sights for the suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun!
 * I'll see you, and raise you "Hold Your Colour." Ahhh, she looked into your eyes / And saw what laid beneath / Don't try to save yourself / the circle is complete!
 * Perfume:
 * "Monochrome Effect". Damn you, American Dad!
 * Speaking of Perfume, "Edge" is prime Ear Worm.
 * "Take Me Take Me" manages to be five minutes of essentially "take me take me" but still manages to be freakishly catchy
 * Katy Perry:
 * "I kissed a girl and I liked it/The taste of her cherry chapstick/I kissed a girl just to try it/I hope my boyfriend don't mind it/It felt so wrong/It felt so right/Don't mean I'm in love tonight/I kissed a girl and I liked it/I liked it"
 * This troper got some extremely weird looks from friends when she was singing it absent-mindedly before Katy Perry was famous. Bad earworm. Bad, bad earworm.
 * There's also the gamergeek version, I Tanked A Boss.
 * OH! MY! GOD! I work at a store where we have XM Radio blaring all day. I've heard this song more times than I care to remember. Doesn't help that I also hang out at a radio station of all places.
 * There's a Dark Knight version (can't seem to find a video) that I now sing instead of the actual lyrics, which go "I kissed The Joker, and I liked it, I hope Harvey Dent don't mind it..."
 * I started making up a version of that song to go with Dean and Castiel in Season 4: "I kissed an angel and I liked it/The taste of his holy water chapstick/I kissed an angel and I liked it/I hope my brother don't mind it..." (It doesn't quite fit, but it's still fun to sing.)
 * And then there's this: "I tortured souls and I liked it/Their screams of pain and anguish/I tortured souls just to try it/I hope my brother don't mind it..."
 * Then there's the Good News Week version, which throws in a Pussycat Dolls song and Gabriella Cilmi song for added earwormy goodness.
 * Cobra Starship recorded a male version. "I kissed a boy, they liked it/Got all the honeys in the club excited..." Incidentally, Hot 'N Cold is terribly catchy, too.
 * I tend to get addicted to songs- I'll hear it, then I'll play it over and over again, and I listened to 'Hot N Cold' 28 times in one afternoon. Which is a record, even for me.
 * A good example (albeit, a badly sung one) is " I Killed A Girl" by cloudstrife34 using footage from Higurashi,
 * ...Or of course, the version by GT Ninja Squad describing Kira from Death Note : "I killed a guy and I liked it/but still this world is rotten/I killed a guy just to try it/ Just hope the cops don't mind it."
 * I have the album on which this song can be found, and find the next track, "Waking Up in Vegas", to be an even bigger earworm. Say what you will about the girl - she's good at catchy.
 * "Why are these lights so bright?/Did we get hitched last night?/Dressed up like Elvis/Why am I wearing your class ring?"
 * You're so gay, and you don't even like boys/No you don't even like/No you don't even like/No you don't even like boys..... Darn you, Kate Perry, darn you...
 * For added displeasure find the mashup made from Hot 'N Cold with Enter Sandman. Not only is it catchy, it's shockingly danceable.
 * Ca-li-for-nia gurls, we're unforgettable, Daisy Dukes Bikinis on top...
 * Sharm's parody of California Gurls Icecrown Citadel as well.
 * An even better song: You! Make! Me!/Feel like I'm livin' a Teen! Age! Dream!/The way you turn me on/ I! Can't! Sleep!/Let's run away and don't ever look back, don't ever look back...
 * I wanna see your peacock cock cock, your peacock!
 * Boom boom boom even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
 * Cause baby you're a fiiiiiiiiiiirework...
 * Kiss - me - k-k-kiss me. Infect me with your love and fill me with your poison...~ DAMMIT.
 * Last Friday night. Yeah we danced on tabletops/And we took too many shots/Think we kissed but I forgot.
 * Nate Perry with NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM
 * "Young Folks" by Peter, Bjorn & John. If nothing else, the whistling will stay stuck in your head. Yeah, that song.
 * Peter, Paul, and Mary: "Puff the Magic Dragon lived by the sea..."
 * I have seen many folks lamenting the catchy nature of a certain Liz Phair song, and having to fight from singing it in public. This song? "Hot White Cum." Give it to me/don't give it away...
 * "Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you?"
 * Pink:
 * "Last to Know". Oh Lord, it's coming back into my head right now. "Why was I the last to know / that you weren't coming to my show..."
 * Iiiiiiiiiii'm coming up! So you better get this party started!
 * SO WHAT! I AM A ROCK STAR! I GOT MY ROCK MOVES!
 * NA NA NA NA NA NA NA, NA NA NA NA NA NAAAAAA.
 * "Crash and Burn"
 * "Can't take me home to mama / she wouldn't think I'm proper..."
 * "I'm not here for your entertainment / you don't really wanna mess with me tonight..."
 * Never win first place/I don't support the team/I can't take direction/And my socks are never clean/Teachers dated me/My parents hated me/I was always in a fight/'cause I can't do nothing right/Every day I fight a war against a mirror/I can't take the person staring back at me/i'm a hazard to myself! ("Don't Let Me Get Me")
 * Guys, cool it with the Pink songs. Just come on and RAISE. YOUR. GLASS.
 * Are you a heeaarrrtbreaker?
 * "Pretty, pretty please..."
 * Pink Floyd:
 * "Cymbaline" and "Another Brick in The Wall, Part 2"
 * MONEY! Get away!
 * Hahah Charade You Are!
 * "Comfortably Numb" and "The Trial"
 * Hey, don't forget Syd! "Bike", "See Emily Play", "Apples and Oranges"...
 * Pink Martini: "When I was just a little girl, I asked my mother: 'What will I be? Will I be pretty? Will I be rich?' Here's what she said to me..."
 * Doris Day replies, "Que, Sera, Sera..."
 * Damnit Heathers
 * Forget the American versions. The Normie Rowe version is truly ear-worming.
 * Pixies has a few songs that will make you hum them for a couple weeks...
 * "GIGANTIC! GIGANTIC! GIGANTIC, a big big love!
 * This monkey's gone to heaven....
 * GOT ME A MOVIE I WAAANT YOU TO KNOW! SLICIN' UP EYEBALLS, I WAAANT YOU TO KNOW!
 * The Pointer Sisters:
 * "I'm so excited, and I just can't hide it! I'm about to lose control, and I think I like it!"
 * JUMP! For my love! Jump in! Let me feel your touch! Bonus if Hugh Grant's dancing to it.
 * It's totally Automatic, all of my systems are down...downdowndown...
 * Find a song by The Police that is NOT an ear worm, and I will pay you.
 * "Every breath you take, every move you make..."
 * Their logic ties me up and rapes me. (De do do do do, de da da da.)
 * ROOOOOOOOOOOOOXANNE!
 * I'll send an SOS to the world, I hope that someone gets my message in a bottle...
 * SENDIN' OUT AN SOS, SENDIN' OUT AN SOS, SENDIN' OUT AN SOS, SENDIN' OUT AN SOS, SENDIN' OUT AN SOS, SENDIN' OUT AN SOS, SENDIN' OUT AN SOS, SENDIN' OUT AN SOS...
 * IIIIII'l be wraaaaped around your finger...I'llll be wraaaaaapped around your finger, whoa-oh...
 * Every little thing she does is magic, everything she does just turns me on...
 * The drum intro from "Regatta de Blanc".
 * "I'm a walking disaster, I'm the Demolition Man..."
 * "I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing you!"
 * Even worse when it's mashed up with "Regatta de Blanc".
 * "Don't stand, don't stand so, don't stand so close to me!"
 * "I want, I want my, I want my MTV!"
 * We are spirits in the material world, us spirits in the material world...
 * Pretty much all of Power Quest's album Blood Alliance; special mention goes to Better Days, Only In My Dreams, and Survive.
 * The Presidents of the United States of America: Cleveland Rocks
 * And then there's the original. And the newer cover. And each catchy in its own horrifying way...
 * She's lump, she's lump, she's in my head! (not to mention "He's Gump, he's Gump, what's with the hair?")
 * "Going to the country, gonna eat a lot of peaches.."
 * "Kitty on my foot and I wanna touch it..."
 * "Sing, Sing, Sing" by Louis Prima. No words, but a rather catchy bit of big band swing.

 * "SMACK MY BITCH UP!!"
 * "Breathe with me!" Don-don-dada-dada-dada-da-da-dada
 * The Proclaimers:
 * "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)"


 * You can counter this one with the parody by the Complainers. "I could walk 500 miles, but that would make me too damn tired, so I go down and I buy a car so I can drive to the local bar"...
 * Also by the Proclaimers: "I'm On My Way" from the Shrek soundtrack (though actually much older).
 * For that matter, just about anything by the Proclaimers.
 * Procol Harum's "A Whiter Shade of Pale" is such an ear worm it makes everybody forget the ten brilliant albums they recorded after it!

 * Eric Prydz: "Call on meeeeeeeeeeeeee, call on me, call on meeeeeeeeeeeeee, I'm the same boy I used to be."

 * THIS IS NOT A LOVE SONG! THIS IS NOT A LOVE SONG!
 * Pussycat Dolls:
 * "Doncha wish your girlfriend was hot like me, doncha wish your girlfriend was a freak like me, doncha? Yeah, doncha?"
 * Oh, they've done worse. Sometimes their latest one will just pop back in and get stuck there again, no exposure to the song necessary.
 * You mean they've written a song that gets stuck in your head without your hearing it? Only composers are supposed to get those!
 * Jaiiiii Hoooooo... Need I say more?
 * When I grow up, I wanna be famous...
 * I'm telling you to loosen up my buttons babe, uh-uh, but you keep fronting me...

Q

 * Queen has a LOT:
 * "We Will Rock You"
 * And "Bohemian Rhapsody."
 * I was in a line at an amusement park and someone started humming that. It ended with the entire line singing it out loud.
 * I once(Anime Boston '09) heard this song, very softly, on the Anime Boston background radio that gets drowned out later in the day. I was sitting waiting for the dealer's room to open, and suddenly the people cosplaying Amaterasu and two Time Owl-things sitting waiting also started singing, and I realized I had started to. We ended up singing it until they opened the room ten minutes early out of annoyance. I think it was about a half-hour or so, no less than, though. I kept running into them and sometimes one would be singing.
 * I once had the middle part of that song (Scaramouch, Scaramouch will you do the Fandango) stuck in my head for three days straight.
 * I have had it stuck in my head for about a year now. It's an on and off thing. Usually, I have to listen to it like twice a day and I'll get sick of it for that day so I will not think about it. It's almost gone.
 * I've done my sentence but committed no crime; and bad mistakes: I've made a few and I've had my share of sand kicked in my face but I've come through! (and I need to go ON AND ON AND ON AND ON!) We are the champions...
 * And "Killer Queen." Made worse because I can't friggin remember the words.
 * How the hell can you forget "Gunpowder and Gelatine, Dynamite with a Laser Beam"?!
 * And Radio Ga Ga. "All we hear is Radio Ga Ga, Radio Goo Goo, Radio Ga Ga..."
 * BICYCLE BICYCLE BICYCLE/I want to ride my bicycle/I want to ride my bike...
 * Don't stop me now! I'm having such a good time, I'm having a ball..
 * Caaaaaaaaan anybodyyyyyyy fiiind meeeeee.... somebody toooo loooooove?
 * One man! One goal! One mission! (And speaking of songs that could be accused of fascism, try:)
 * Heeeere we are! Born to be ki-ings, we're the princes of the universe!
 * Flash! AAAAAAAH!
 * Damn it, I hate that song! Now its stuck in my head again!
 * The bass line from "The Invisible Man" (DUN!) has been rattling around in my head for days.
 * Don't forget the bass line from "Under Pressure".
 * Not to be confused with the baseline from "Ice Ice Baby".
 * ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST!
 * AAAAAAAAH!!! You gonna take me home tonight? AAAAAAAAH!!! Down beside that red firelight!
 * The guitar riff ending Lazing on a Sunday Afternoon
 * I'm knitting with only one needle/Unravelling fast, it's true/I'm driving only three wheels these days/But my dear, how about you?
 * I can dim the lights and sing you songs full of sad things...
 * Great King Rat was a dirty old man, and a dirty old man was he... now, what did I tell you? Would you like to seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?
 * This thing...called love. Iii-iii just! I can't HANDLE IT!

 * MUSTAPHAAAAAAAA!!!!!! duuun dun dun dun dun dun MUSTAPHAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!
 * You should've been sweeping up the Emerald bar!
 * This troper loves that song.
 * It's a kind of magic Magic, Magic, Magic! (MAGIC!)
 * TIE YOUR MOTHER DOWN! TIE YOUR MOTHER DOWN!
 * "I want it all/I want it all/I want it all/And I want it now!
 * "Inside my heart is breaking/My makeup may be flaking/But my smile still stays on..."
 * So you feel like you ain't nobody/Always wanted to be somebody...
 * Queensryche has a couple. "Silent Lucidity", "I Don't Believe in love", and "Walk in the Shadows" are the ones that come to mind.
 * Queens of the Stone Age:
 * "No One Knows"
 * "Little Sister", especially the cowbell part at the start.
 * "3's & 7's"

""You got a pussy! I have a dick-ah! So what's the problem? Let's do it quick! Take me now before it's too late...life's too short, so I can't wait! Take me now, oh don't you see, I can't get laid in Germany!""

"I met a melody today It didn't ask if it could stay Now it even wants share my bed You know at first it was OK But as it never goes away It drives me insane I almost wish I were dead I can't get the melody out of my head"
 * DU! DU HAST!
 * BANG! BANG! FEUER FREI!
 * "We're all living in America!"
 * From The Ramones:
 * "Twenty, twenty, twenty-four hours to go... I wanna be sedated."
 * It doesn't help that it's composed of just a few chords repeated endlessly.
 * Me and my niece absolutely have to sing this song at the top of our lungs every time we hear it. We get funny looks from relatives.

 * Rock, rock, rockaway beach, rock, rock, rockaway beach...
 * Bonzo goes to Bitburg and goes out for a cup of tea, as I watched on TV somehow it really bothered me, drank in all the bars in town for an extended foreign policy...
 * My brain is hanging upside down...
 * Rascal Flatts' "Bob That Head." It's a stupid song, but This Troper would easily file it under Guilty Pleasures for its ear-worm status alone.
 * "What hurts the most, is being so close..."
 * Ravel's Bolero is maddening in this way: on one hand it's essentially the same bit being done over and over again for about 15 minutes, but after about 8-10 minutes it's built to an epic and inspiring state of pure aural awesome.
 * The Swedish group The Real Group has their song I Sing, You Sing. This one is also an example of a song about an earworm as the following verse shows:

"The Matrix Anime Music Videos Any soundtrack/compilation CD remotely related to horror movies, action movies, sports video games, racing video games, and/or professional wrestling"
 * The Ready Set: Woah-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh...

 * "Tell me baby, what's the story..."

 * Reel Big Fish:
 * "Kiss me ONCE! Kiss me TWICE! Come on, pretty baby, kiss me deadly!"

 * Don't start a band. Nobody wants to hear, nobody understands. Don't start a band. You will be so disappointed that it was nothing like you planned
 * "Sell out with me, oh yeah!"
 * An amazingly infectious pop punk song, Face Down, by the Red Jumpsuit Apparatus: "Do you feel like a man / When you push her around / Do you feel better now? / As she falls to the ground". It's known to leach into your head.
 * Rednex, "Cotton-Eyed Joe." "'Fit hadn't been for Cotton-Eyed Joe / I'd been married a long time 'go / Where didja come from, where didja go / Where didja come from, Cotton-Eyed Joe..."
 * Motherdouchebags! I just got that out of my head.
 * "Bottleneck Bob is riding fast / Wanted by the law for the freight train blast / The sheriff and his men is a big bad mob / But they're chasing poor old Bottleneck Bob"
 * R.E.M.:

 * That's me in the corner, that's me in the spotlight, I'm losing my religion...
 * Call me when you try to wake her up... call me when you try to wake her up... call me when you try to wake her up...
 * "What's the frequency, Kenneth? Is your Benzedrine, uh-huh?"
 * Similar to TMBG's Fingertips songs, the songs on The Residents'  Commercial Album are pretty catchy, even though they're all one minute long.
 * "Dragula" by Rob Zombie. You've probably memorized this song if you were a boy born in the late 80's/early 90's and fondly remember any of the following:


 * Well, it doesn't hurt that they also played it on radio stations.
 * Rihanna:
 * "Umbrella". "Under my umbrella, ella, ella..."
 * As if it wasn't bad enough, how about when you live with young girls who only sing the same four lines from the chorus,  a dozen times in a row?
 * I see your ella, ella, ella, eh, and raise you a BUM BUM BEE DUM BUM BUM BEE DUM BUM.
 * And I see your Bum bum bee dum bum bum bee dum bum, and raise you a Song Pon De Replay.
 * And before all that, there was S. O. S. Please. Some. One. Help. Me.

 * The entirety of S&M. NANANA COME ON COME ON COME ON NANANANA COME ON.

 * Roxy. Music.
 * THERE'S A NEW SENSATION
 * Virginia Plain. God damn.
 * Oh, mother of pearl, I wouldn't trade you for another girl
 * More than this/No, there's no~thing...
 * The weird thing about getting a Rush song earwormed in your cranium, it's usually not the lyrics that keep repeating, but rather Alex Lifeson's guitar solos or Neal Peart's entire drumline. Heck, right now, I'm tapping out the bass line to Presto.
 * "YYZ". Just... "YYZ". All of it.
 * We are the priests/of the Temples of Syyyrinx.
 * Modern day warrior/Mean, mean stride/Today's Tom Sawyer/Mean, mean pride.
 * Cause their marching on/to BASTIIIIII-I-III-IILE DAY! La Guillotine/will claim her bloody/PRIZE!
 * Also, we have New World Man, Fly By Night, and Limelight.
 * The Enemy Within. 'Nuff said.
 * Freewill. Hearing the chorus has instant ear-worming effects.
 * "Invisible airwaves crackle with light..."
 * Kevin Rudolf:
 * Let it Rock is horribly, horribly catchy.
 * I look up to the sky, and all the world is mine, I've known it all my life, I made it, I made it...
 * My ex was obsessed with this song to the point of playing it pretty much on a loop during a 5-hour car journey. It's still lodged in my head over a year later, but it is a good song.
 * There exists a Harry Potter Shipping fan-vid (to which I have, perhaps mercifully, mislaid the link) that uses this song as an accompaniment to the Hermione/Draco ship, perhaps because of the They All Said We Never Could Be Happy theme of the (Polish) lyrics. ("Let Them Say This Isn't Love", an English translation of the song's title, was the original working title of that page for a reason.) It managed to achieve the impossible by making this godawful ship somewhat bearable, then (inevitably) got stuck in my head. And now won't go away.
 * Would this be the video in question?
 * The Runaways: HELLO DADDY! HELLO MOM I'M YOUR CH-CH-CH-CH CHERRY BOMB!.
 * "This groove is for my girls, little ladyboys and girls!"
 * Heck, basically every single Relient K song is like this, especially "Be My Escape" and "Must Have Done Something Right"!
 * Todd Rundgren: "I don't wanna work! I wanna bang on the drum all day! I don't wanna play! I just wanna bang on the drum all day!"
 * The Rutles: La-Dee-Doo-Dah, La-De-Da, Let's all go to Shangri-La!
 * Ruslana: HEY HEY WE KEEP DANCING
 * Endless repeats + multiple modulations + strings + drum break = Tommy Roe's "Dizzy"
 * Fairytale by Alexander Rybak
