“There you go making my heart beat again, heart beat again, HEART BEAT AGAIN!!
There you go pulling me right back in, right back in, RIGHT BACK IN!!!!
And I know I’m never letting this go (oh-oh)
I’m stuck on [THIS FREAKIN SONG]”
*Song compliments of Sugarland
What is it about some songs that make them so obnoxiously catchy? A tune comes on the radio, and before you know that you’ve been possessed by the Music Gods, you’re singing along to the high-pitched, breathy voice of Lady Gaga.
You switch the radio off, and the song echoes around inside your mind. It’s always there, sitting just on the edge of your consciousness. Even when you think you’ve replaced the mind-numbing lyrics with another tune, the same old song strikes again! It catches you unprepared and unaware, always on the lookout for the absolute worst moment to take over your brain: the middle of a midterm or the few minutes before you’re about to fall asleep.
Do they study the rhythmic tunes of guitar riffs to decide which one is most likely to get trapped in your mind? Or is it just chance that a musical group stumbles upon their oh-so-captivating lyrics? Maybe they’re just as hooked on the music as we are! Forced to play that funky music till they drop dead of repetition.
That settles it. Music is a drug. And it’s addictive as hell.
