I heard that's an ADD trait. Sometimes I get music stuck in my head.
Maybe that explains why I don't have it?
I realized that I actually will hum or sing a song that I like that I've heard recently, but it's not really stuck in my head, and I forget about it pretty quickly. I don't listen to music very often.
I'me *VERY* annoyed by any types of sounds like music when I'm trying to concentrate.

I don't have it constantly but if I listen to or try to remember a song it will be playing for a while but usually not the whole song. Since most noise gets on my nerves right away I wear headphones most of the day and earplugs when I sleep.

Getting a sound track stuck in my head is a sure sign that I am heading to some kind of meltdown phase. Interestingly, only the soft rock/pop music tunes get played back again and again. When I listen to instrumental music, like classical or baroque pieces, the music does not get stuck and I have noticed that listening to good instrumental music can actually help “work out” the running mind problem. My theory is that rock and roll music appeals to the primitive aspects of the mind whereas classical music appeals more to the sensual side of the cerebral. Too much rock and roll and my head tend to buzz like as if something has gone on overdrive.
What a great question. I'd never even thought about it, but yep I've been listening to Barry White singing the same song all morning. I don't even particularly like Barry White!

I am also constantly making up songs and melodies.
If only I were more capable of remembering them and writing them down better.
I know I have written an ok song only if I get it stuck in my head.
I also get classical music stuck in my head...and then I am stuck humming it.
I am constantly stuck singing Ravel's Bolero...sometimes i will meow Ravel's Bolero..just to change it up a bit. (By mentioning it I will have either jinxed myself into having at least a partial Ravel's Bolero day or I will have broken the spell)
Or it will be something by Mozart....or what have you...
(right now it is a little snippet from Marriage of Figaro, I think)
Alot of time it will switch stations...or switch back and forth
