i don’t know if anyone else suffers from a similar affliction. But if my peripheral vision sees a word or a thing it can trigger a song in my head. And I’ll be singing it for ages via my sub-conscious before realising. Then I have to retrace my steps to try and work out what started me off.
For example, it can be something as simple as a bottle of red wine in the peripheral will have me singing red red wine, the UB40 version, for 20mins.
Or there is a card on my desk that says “i love you so much” (yeah, i’m loved – take that losers) but most days at some point I’ll catch a glimpse and it will set off some kelis song that makes me want to scream.
It’s most frustrating.
but for the last week every morning when I’ve gone down to make a coffee I have found myself singing “I should be so lucky” by kylie minogues. I have no idea why. There is nothing lucky next to the kettle
It is driving me batty.
Maybe you’re subconciously thinking that you’re lucky every morning? Or maybe it’s the fifteen Kylie Minogue posters hung around your home…
By the way, I suffer the same affliction. It’s mostly good, but sometimes you can get the absolute worst song in your head and can’t get it out.
