Can't get this song outta my head!!! (1 Viewer)

[Inspector Hammer!]

I also love that song, although my favorite song from Footloose is 'I'm Free' by Kenny Loggins, it reminds me of John McClane in Die Hard...

Heaven helps the man who fight's his fears (the roof), love's the only thing that keeps me here (his wife or he'd just leave the building), your the reason that i'm hangin' on (his wife again)



And oh God, I remember 'Achy Breaky Heart',it used to give me an 'Achy Breaky Headache'.

 

[Yee-Ming]

I can't stand the song, but at least I gotta recognise that the lyrics of that Charlene song are rather interesting, sounds like a professional party girl regretting her hedonistic lifestyle now that presumably she's too old to attract the rich boys, and that the young housewife with the newborn should appreciate her family.

For sheer crapness, annoying factor etc, I vote for Milkshake by Kelis.

 

[Jon_Are]

Maybe not the worst song ever written, but for me, the hardest to banish from my thoughts...

I'll just offer up a hint:

"Rubbin' sticks 'n stones together, make the sparks ignite..."

Jon

edit: Dang, now it's in there for awhile, probably clear through the weekend.

Thanks to this thread, my head is now echoing with the Oak Ridge Boys-

Elvira,
Elvira,
My heaaaart is on fire for Elvira.

There must be some way to make it stop. I wonder if I have a knitting needle around here somewhere...

As far as that Charlene song goes, I actually downloaded it from iTunes about two months ago :b

Ok, well half of it was for nostalgia purposes and the other half was because I was trying to play the corniest songs for a co-worker.

I had already played "Seasons in the sun" and "Loving You (Minnie Ripperton)" and I even played the Italian version of Laura Brannigan's "Gloria" and I needed more ammo, but as much as it was a goof, there really is something about that song.

Damn you, Loverboy, and your catchy rock lyrics and oh so tight red leather pants. You got me on another tune of yours of which I cannot rid my brain.

Make it stop, mommy, make it stop.


Lovin' Every Minute Of It
Loverboy


I'm not man or machine
I'm just something in between
I'm all love, a dynamo
So push the button and let me go

You want me to come alive
Just flick the switch into overdrive
You and me can let it be
Ready-Aim-Fire

Touch that dial - Turn me on
Start me like a motor, make me run
Lovin' every minute of it
Lovin' every minute of it
Turn that dial all the way
Shoot me like a rocket into space
Lovin' every minute of it
Lovin' every minute of it
Lovin' every minute of it C'mon

I got fun, You want some
I'm ever ready, Dr. Love
I'm antenna, aerial
I'm tunin' in 'm outta control
You got love, you got a deal
You wanna drive then take the wheel
You and me can let it be
Ready-Aim-Fire

Touch that dial - Turn me on
Start me like a motor, make me run
Lovin' every minute of it
Lovin' every minute of it
Turn that dial all the way
Shoot me like a rocket into space
Lovin' every minute of it
Lovin' every minute of it
Lovin' every minute of it Alright

Oh, You want me to come alive
Just flick the switch into overdrive
You and me can let it be
Ready-Aim-Fire

Touch that dial - Turn me on
Start me like a motor, make me run
Lovin' every minute of it
Lovin' every minute of it
Turn that dial all the way
Shoot me like a rocket into space
Lovin' every minute of it
Lovin' every minute of it
Lovin' every minute of it
Lovin' every minute of it

C'mon and Touch that dial - Turn me on
Start me like a motor, make me run
Turn that dial all the way
Shoot me like a rocket into space
Lovin' every minute of it
Lovin' every minute of it

Whoa-oa-whoa-oh-whoa

......................hmm, it could be worse...you could have the last part of "Wanna Be Starting Something" by Michael Jackson stuck in your head:

Ma ma se, ma ma sa,
Ma ma coo sa
Ma ma se, ma ma sa,
Ma ma coo sa
Ma ma se, ma ma sa,
Ma ma coo sa....eeeeee,heeee,heeee.
Ma ma se, ma ma sa,
Ma ma coo sa
Ma ma se, ma ma sa,
Ma ma coo sa........woooooo.
Ma ma se, ma ma sa,
Ma ma coo sa
Ma ma se, ma ma sa,
Ma ma coo sa....

When my daughter was a toddler, I would leave the house as Barney came on the tube. Having the "I love you, you love me" song in your head all day is worse than the Chinese Water Torture.

She's 12 now, and when I need to torment her, I start singing it. Payback to your kids is a wonderful thing


(She'll probably sue me for the costs of her therapy when she's older...)

 

[Dana Fillhart]

Y'know, I thought I managed to escape my childhood unscathed, until a little man by the name of Tim Burton came along last year and dredged up horrible, horrible memories ...

Oompa Loompa doompadee doo
I've got another puzzle for you
Oompa Loompa doompadah dee
If you are wise you'll listen to me

What do you get from a glut of TV?
A pain in the neck and an IQ of three
Why don't you try simply reading a book?
Or could you just not bear to look?

You'll get no
You'll get no
You'll get no
You'll get no
You'll get no commercials

Oompa Loompa Doompadee Dah
If you're not greedy you will go far
You will live in happiness too
Like the Oompa
Oompa Loompa doompadee do


I coulda lived the rest of my life without having heard that song ever again, but nooooooo! Gee, thanks Tim for the memories!

 

[Inspector Hammer!]

Oompa Loompas.

They are the most phsychologically disturbing creations ever concieved for the cinema! When I see that film my mind cannot help but begin to imagine the secret lives of Oompa Loompas, their filthy, disgusting, heavy smoking and hard drinking behind-the-scenes lives, their at-home dramas with their wives and little orange faced Oompa Loompa whores entering to break up their happy little Oompa Loompa homes.

The sick stench of Oompa Loompa sex, green hair entangled and sweaty. The Oompa Loompa world is dubious, dark...twisted.

I do not like it.

 

[MarkHastings]

I can't seem to get the lyrics for "Chariots of Fire", "Axel-F", and "Dueling Banjos", "The Entertainer" out of my head!!!!



p.s. Remember when I was talking about corny songs. I forgot to add another:
"Midnight At The Oasis"

 

[Kirk Gunn]

Hmmm.... I see a slam-dunk class-action lawsuit:

Listening to the oompa-loompa song made me so deranged I slept with a banjo-playing member of the opposite sex from West VA... while raising our subsequently deranged offspring, the Barney song made me spill hot coffee on my lap, whose moisture wafted into a small bag of silica stuck in the crevices of a brand-new carseat.

After a lunch-hour stop at a Taco Bell, Fire-Sauce salsa sealed our fate....

Perhaps a random dose of Flock of Seagulls could have saved us, but alas. The rest is history...

(It's been way too long since silica has been intertwined in a silly thread )

 

[Yee-Ming]

Speaking of Oompa Loompas, no reference to "Yub yub"?



(movies, short non-humans...)

 

[Inspector Hammer!]

At least the Ewoks let us know what they were about, short furry people who lived in trees and knew how to throw a party, these Oompa Loompa's are shifty and deceitful little bastards (speaking of the one's in the original film only, Deep Roy was creepy, but not as bad IMO).

 

[Hunter P]

Oh by the way, the last time I seriously had a bad case of this was when I saw an episode of BBC's "The Office."

[Francois Caron]

Doo doooo, doodoo doo! Doodoo doo! Doodoo doo! Doodoo doo doo doo doo doo doooo doo!

What a way to spend a Monday! WITH THAT TUNE IN MY HEAD!!! Even worse, I recognized the variations he was singing.

Thanks Hunter! I now hate you to the end of time!

 

[Hunter P]

It's like a virus isn't it? No matter what you can't get rid of it. You just have to let it run it's course and leave on it's own.
