Get That Song Outta My Head!

摘要

The nightmare began when my husband walked into our kitchen and said, "I've had this song stuck in my head all day..." No! I thought. Don't say it! "Remember that song from the original Karate Kid movie?" he continued. For the love of God, no! "You know how it goes. 'You're the best around... na na na na na, na na na na. You're the best around..." It was too late. Now I had an earworm - a song, melody or jingle that gets stuck in your head. The worst part? I only knew that same line. I walked around humming it for days. I tried to shake it by singing along with tunes playing on my car radio while I was out running errands. For a brief time, Van Halen's "Runnin' With the Devil" replaced it.
