6. The unfortunate thing about that is I'll probably just get a mash-up of the two
But hey, thanks for trying! :)

8. I heard the Fine Young Cannibals version the other day.
How's that for an earworm? Having the Barry Gibbian, I-have-peanut-butter-stuck-to-the-roof-of-my-mouth-and-I'm-having-a-stroke vocal stylings of Roland Gift.

14. If you sing the Raiders of the Lost Ark theme song, it will eradicate
any earworm. It's that powerful.

15. Someone told me that
singing or whistling "The Girl from Ipanema " is a sure fire cure for earwoms.

18. (To Midlo also) I always heard it was Electric Avenue...
but even it is impotent to the swarthy tones of Elvis. :(

(Cue up the bad Irish fiddle.)

Poor old Johnny Ray
Sounded sad upon the radio, he moved a million hearts in mono.
Our mothers cried and sang along and who'd blame them.
Now you're grown, so grown, now I must say more than ever.
Go Toora Loora Toora Loo-Rye-Aye
and we can sing just like our fathers.

Come on Eileen,
I swear (well he means) At this moment you mean everything,
With you in that dress my thoughts I confess verge on dirty
Ah come on Eileen.

These people round here wear beaten down eyes
Sunk in smoke dried faces they're so resigned to what their fate is,
But not us, no not us we are far too young and clever.
Remember Toora Loora Toora Loo-Rye-Aye
Eileen I'll hum this tune forever.

Come on Eileen, I swear, well he means
Ah come on let's take off everything,
That pretty red dress Eileen (Tell him yes)
Ah come on let's, ah come on Eileen, please.

24. I could
but I don't think you want me to.

There are certainly more annoying songs...even after four hours of "Suspicious Minds".

27. Try listening to a vaguely familiar instrumental easy listening tune...
Never fails to clear my mind.
