I just noticed 2 things that — so far — appear to be the case every time that happens. The first is that for some reason it’s never a song I really like — and sometimes even a song I hate. The second — it seems to happen only when I’m really tired.
Now here’s the thing — the last two times it happened — I didn’t hear either of the songs shortly before it happened. And — if I were consciously wanting to sing — I surely wouldn’t pick songs I hate from my memory.
So — with myself being my only subject — I hesitate to run with this — but I’m wondering if that “phenomenom” is an instinctive self preservation response. Getting irritated by a stupid song every 30 seconds or so does keep me more alert.
If you can recall it happening to you — were you tired and was a song that irritated you?
