Psych nurse action figure ?
So this may be mildly on topic.... I saw Farawyn's sugar spill and the Def Leppard classic "Pour Some Sugar on Me" immediately started playing in my mind... it will stay there until replaced by something else. Now - my friends and colleagues are split on this. Some assure me that I am not alone in my personal constant concert series, others look at me like I am out of my mind. Professional views?? Is it possible that people honestly and truly DON'T have a song playing in their heads 24/7??

I guess it's possible; however unlikely.
I always called it my brain radio, as in "Bohemian Rhapsody" is playing on my brain radio" but I think the correct term is earworm:
According to One Study, Flare, only 2% of the Population do not have Songs, known as Ear Worms, playing in their Head.The vast Majority of Ear Worms know the Words. The Others just Fake It.
When I don't know the words for my Ear Worms I replace the words with numbers, counting 1 to 10 and repeating over and over, with the rhythm of the music. Now that is on topic with this thread!!!

I think mine must hum - thus finding correlation for my tinnitus. It's nice to know i'm in good company though and that those nay-sayer co-workers of mine are indeed the ones who are the odd balls.
