Do you have a radio in your head 24/7?

Post Reply New Topic

Are we including talk radio? If so, YES. I have a constant, irrepressible internal narrative of everything that happens to me, accompanied by frequent music "stuck in my head." I started trying to explain to others what this feels 18 years ago, and have long since given up because no one seems to get it.

I don't have a perfect memory for music, but I do have an above average one. Anything that rhymes or scans, once heard a few times, never leaves my brain.

All the time. I even wake up with a random song in my head, like my brain is on shuffle.

I've wondered about this, and whether or not it's typical.

If I don't take my Ritalin...yes I have it happen to me.

If I don't have music, it's usually lines (Mostly from Matilda) from films.

Not anything like radio, just various songs that pop up from time to time.

Right now it's "While My Guitar Gently Weeps."

YES!! !!

Not 24/7, luckily. But it is there.

I often have music playing in my head, although it's not 24/7. It can be triggered off by certain phrases or words, and it can be annoying at times, for example when I am in lessons. But at other times it's quite nice.

I almost constantly have a song stuck in my head, and when I do I tend to want to actually hear the song just to get the real thing and get it out of my head temporarily(It registers in my head differently hearing it than I do thinking it).

Generally I find music puts me in a better mood anyways, I am constantly singing along to the radio in the car, and sometimes still feel compelled to sing lyrics I know at restaurants/grocery stores/anywhere with music playing but I try and do so quietly because I know people would look at me like I am crazy for some reason, its just music people, live a little.

Come to think of it, I honestly would not be weirded out if life imitated musicals and people randomly burst into song(The dancing might seem odd to me still) from time to time.

This exactly.
I always have a song playing, and also the internal dialogue as well, with the song playing in the background. Sometimes I don't mind, but when I'm trying to sleep its intrusive. I also wake up with the same song playing that I fell asleep listening to.

I've asked many people and aside from the dialogue once in awhile, and hearing a catchy tune from time to time.. most have said they don't experience this to the degree I do.

Gogol Bordello entertained me with Pale Tute until 3 a.m. . I hope I did all right on my quiz this morning. Lelalelalelalela Pale Tute .... it's almost funny how tired I am and how energetic my music is right now.
