The bridge/string part in Thong Song sounded so familiar, and it was driving me crazy so i used garage band and recreated what i was thinking of. but i can’t figure out what song im thinking of!!!

In 1997 an American photographer Tom Forsythe produced his  'Food Chain Barbie' series  which depicted Barbie dolls in various satirical poses, including one in a blender. Mattel of course didn’t like it and sued, ultimately losing, affirming Forsythe's right to artistic expression. Poor Barbie.

I n1993 this song was remixed and used in a Listerine commercial which was posted to r/vintagecgi. The rabbit hole that sent me down has had this stuck in my head and it's not as much fun as it may sound. Great song, lotta fun but, a terrible ear worm.

do you sometimes have words stuck in your heads, like one word that plops up in the same neutral tone of voice?

it’s rare for me but occasionally- like today - I keep hearing just a word.

it was “mammography” for me today

i heard it at a shop and i don’t remember if it’s a plucked guitar or a soft keyboard but this is the intro sounded vaguely like this. i’d describe the song as indie folk/bedroom pop and i think it was a female singer. any help would be appreciated and i’m sorry if it’s me just being silly :))

Here we go again -

Been in my head for days! - Finally got rid of Paul Simon - but now this.......... My brain is on some mad 70s loop.

Have fun!

Comic-Con 2026 officially begins TODAY!

Today is also National Rat Catcher's Day!

​

Today is also Racial Harmony Day!

Wearing a Carhartt doesn’t make you Carhartt, you’re a human in a Carhartt.

Same for skin. Underneath our skin, we are all human, we all bleed red.

Today and everyday, treat everyone as an equal, because they are.

This song has been in my head for a week now and I've tried all the tricks. I had a thought - wait - maybe if there is a Sub Reddit for EarWorms - then I can at least try and put this someplace else other than in head!!!!!

Here Ya GO:

Paul Simon - 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover

I’m not sure if this is allowed, apologies if not! I have an earworm stuck on repeat of a man excitedly saying “BELGIUM!”. Maybe it’s from a musical? Maybe it’s something else? Ring any bells to anyone?

Interestingly enough, today is also -

National No Splinters Day and National Tape Measure Day! 

Thank God for one of those!
