For ages I thought George Ezra was Giorgio Moroder and couldn't work out why he was suddenly wildly popular 30 years after his one hit.

Slightly harsh. I guess that's one of the few he got his name on as the main artist, but he was a large factor in the success of a lot of hits:

Oh sure, but if I'm remembering his name, it's from Together In Electric Dreams.

I keep seeing that Wrigley’s chewing gum advert with the zombie* and that short 2 second burst of music keeping going around my head.

I had to look it up and it’s a group called Litany and the song is called Bedroom**.

So there you go. It’s good and hypnotic.

I've had a skip though it. I have a few observations...

Firstly, do they know their white balance is completely off? It's way too warm! Amateurs!

Secondly, that broken cymbal will never give the tonal sound that such a beautiful song requires. They should invest in a new one.

Other than that, wonderful stuff. I especially like the Woo-hoo in the chorus. Very jaunty.

Not thought about that song for years.

I've had Festival Song by Jeff Rosenstock rattling around in my head for about a week now, but there are far worse songs to be afflicted by.

When I listen to Metallica lately, I often start with that song, then perhaps jump to Bleeding Me and then to Outlaw Torn. Load got a lot of stick, but there are some brilliant songs on there.

We can all agree that St Anger is trash though, right? Frantic is a terrible, terrible song, and sets the tone for the whole album.

I bought the CD as soon as it came out and listened to it twice I think. Just aimless noise with each song overstaying its welcome by a few minutes. I've not been able to get into 'Hardwired...' either for much the same reason.

You should always start with this:



(But yeah, Load is by far the album by them I listened to the most)

Jeff Rosenstock is tremendous, Mister Fop.

The song I keep getting stuck in my head is the new Mandy Moore song- “When I Wasn’t Watching”.

It’s got a strong vibe of Natalie Imbruglia mixed with HAIM, and would probably be fairly unremarkable if it wasn’t for the chorus melody progression taking a very surprising turn, which works really well.

I went through a very long period of humming the Mandy Moore song "I see the light" from Tangled.

Now, however, I am whistling the opening whistly bit from this :

Woke up with the Flumps theme firmly stuck in my head



But then I read Mimi's tweet mentioning Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and now that's stuck in my head instead.

I used to love the Flumps. My Nan made me a Rosie Flump when I was little.

A friend's kids came over and was singing "it's a long way, to the shop - if you want a sausage roll"

(You can probably guess the tune) and now it's stuck in everyone's head, I find myself singing it too.

My brain decided the tune for that should be Brown Girl In The Ring.

One of many interesting songs by Dave Stewart (the other one, not the Eurhythmics one) and Barbara Gaskin, original by Billy Bragg, that keeps popping into me 'ead.

Interesting, and unexpected.

In this case he tune is AC/DC and "It's a long way to the top"
