Your default mental song?

[fnorfurfoot]

so many so much of the time. but if there's one that seems to pop up very frequently at the most random of times...

it's that whistled song at the beginning of the animated disney robin hood cartoon.

don't ask me why.

Thanks. Now I have to go to bed with that song stuck in my head too.

La Vie Boheme, Parts A & B--RENT

I LOVE that movie!

I TOO loved that movie..My 2 of my newest default songs are alternate between the "Tango Maureen" and the one the burnette hottie sings about wanting "to go owe-oot-tonight"....

From "The Demolished Man" by Alfred Bester

Eight, sir; seven sir;
Six, sir; five, sir;
Four, sir; three, sir;
Two, sir; one!
Tenser, said the Tensor
Tenser, said the Tensor.
Tension, apprehension
And dissension have begun.
Tension, apprehension
And dissension have begun.

When everyone here starts mindlessly singing or humming a tune, what song is it?

It depends.

On my bike or at work it usually is the latest metal/alternative song I have heard and like.

When I am down, it seems to be "Dreaming of a White Christmas"

But when I am happy and feeling devious, it is the Smurf Theme song just with "La-la . . . " Add in the occasional skip and this seems to scare most people. It also makes for fun on my end.

With just under 35 years experience as a guitarist myself, it's almost always whatever I'm curently working on. Lately I've been going through the King's X catalogue. Though, "Turn of The Century" and "Gates of Delirium" by Yes are always close to the surface

Magic Carpet Ride
Dark Side Of The Moon
Paradise City
Islands in the Stream
and a bunch of other strage stuff depending on my mood, worse part is I sometimes have no idea what some of these are or all of the song just a part of it that keeps replaying in my mind

Ah, Bester—one of the very, very best ever! The Stars My Destination... now there was a great classic, as good as anything Asimov ever wrote...

 

[MarkBarlow]

Almost always a Jimmy Buffett song. Which one varies with the situation. But every now and then I can't get Whisky Bent and Hell Bound by Bocephus out of my mind...

 

[matt.m]

"Rock Candy" Montrosse
"Cabo Wabo" Van Halen

 

[Ping898]

Usually for me it is whatever the last song I listened to was, wether I liked the song or not, I just suddenly find myself singing it in my head when I am not thinking....

 

[evenflow1121]

Thin Air, Pearl Jam

 

[KempoGuy06]

Eminem's "The Way I am" i dont know why but that song is powerful. Also a lot of Linkin Park, Nickel Back or Nirvana.

[tradrockrat]

When I'm riding my bike it's either Fulsom Prison Blues (J.Cash) or Roll me Away (B. Segar)

When I'm just hanging out it is usually whatever I heard last on the radio or CD

EDIT: just remembered that whenever life is being a real bummer, I wind up singing One More for the Road (F. Sinatra)

 

[Ping898]

I realized I have a second default song....if I haven't listened to music lately....it is the "Oompa Loompa" song... I am not sure what that says about me...

It's scary..WAIT a sec...I remember all the words...I guess we are both scary..

My default mental song would be whatever is playing on my mp3 player that keeps me from going insane. I'd die without music.

 

[Carol]

Marillion's "Cinderella Search" or Dire Straits "Down to the Waterline"

Today I discovered I was humming the Banana Splits theme song...

 

[CoryKS]

Usually it's the last song that was mentioned to me, with the "stickiness" proportional to how bad I hate the song. I'm pretty lucky right now - got the piano n kazoo madness of the theme song for "Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends". My kid loves that show.

I could while away the hours
Conferrin' with the flowers
Consultin' with the rain
And my head, I'd be scratchin'
While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain.....
