I've been into an Imogen Heap song for the last four years, and I could listen to it over and over again still. The songs that play in my head rotate; usually it's the few songs I'm listening to obsessively at the moment (currently OneRepublic and Florence + The Machine....).


When my life settles down (i.e. not desperately working on X, and have more than £1 in the bank) I need to get a music player and buy some music. That should solve my problem. But without that I just hear the same ancient stuff constantly.

The music that's stuck in my head is usually from my Mormon upbringing. I have nothing against Mormonism in general, but the song I hear most is the hymn "Oh How Lovely Was the Morning" - a hymn about how Joseph Smith saw God. I wouldn't mind if it was well written or inspirational, but it's not a great song and it's all about what I think is the weakest and most problematic part of my former belief. I wish that song would go away! But it's been played so often in my head that the neural pathways must be an inch thick and incapable of shifting. :( Why couldn't it at least be a good hymn?
