Finally, someone else who lives with a perpetual internal soundtrack! This morning it was Answers from Final Fantasy XIV.

Oooh, Answers is an interesting one to get stuck on!
The one XIV track that's frequently on repeat in my head is Exponential Entropy because it makes my brain go brrrrr.
yesterday it was the sailor moon theme song and I have not settled on one today (but it is down to 10 now)
Ron Burgundy was daring Sia for a while
I'll have you know I'm from Whale's Vagina.
I have two songs on repeat in my head almost constantly since at least 2007:
- You Can't Quit Me Baby - QOTSA; or
- Buoy Base Galaxy - Super Mario Galaxy
Please send help. Second one is a banger though.
You Can’t Quit Me Baby - Queens of the Stone Age
Buoy Base Galaxy - Super Mario Galaxy
I'm getting great song suggestions out of this. The one weird thing (about me) is that I can't imagine myself getting an instrumental stuck in my head, and I like instrumentals. I need words for it to stick. Huh. You weren't the only one that gave an instrumental as an answer.
Thanks for adding the links, can't figure out how to do it with wefwef because I can never remember the exact markdown!
I usually have just instrumentals in my head, I like picking out different lines. I'll usually end up making words up and singing nonsense to the general melody while I'm doing stuff. I think that one QOTSA track is stuck because there's a lot of "ohhhhhwwooooowweeohhhh"ing, same with some other early 90s rock/grunge where the vocals are almost unintelligible - my brain treats it like another instrument I guess.
Husband of an ADHD woman here. We both have the radio brain thing a lot of the time.
Hers is usually Coheed & Cambria songs. Today it was Ladders of Supremacy.
Mine is usually something by Miracle of Sound. Today it was Beneath the Black Flag.
Aw man I don't know the name of it but it's that Ukrainian pop song about the toy dolls and was written really recently as a way to insult Russia.
I don't all the words but it is catchy
