Can't get it outta my head

For repeated thoughts prompt

GREEEEEN GIANT! I CANT BELIEVE I ATE THE WHOLE THING, Taryton. .. I'd rather fight than switch. "Hold the pickles hold the lettuce, special orders don't upset us.". .

My brain is a machine. This machine gets stuck on catchy jingles, well crafted song lyrics, TV commercials. When I say "stuck" I mean stuck. "SAVE MY LIFE . .IM GOING DOWN FOR THE LAST TIME," HEAD EAST

I CANT GET NO. . .SAT IS FACTION. I CANT GET NO SATISFATION Rolling Stones
You get the idea. .

Great music. . .until it replays over and over in your head for two or three hours. . .or days

I really enjoyed this read. Although it was a short, it packed a punch

[ETERNITY]

Wow D! I haven't thought of Taryton in ages!
Yeah, I get the same jingles.
I see LIFE in CARTOONS!
I mean, Real life is like a cartoon to me.
Anyway, LOVED your BIO.

I had the song from ELO (your title) in my head for days one time. I thought I was going crazy. I do remember the jingles...two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun...I'd like to buy the world a coke, and furnish it with love.........You deserve a break today, so get up and on your way to McDonalds.

Do you remember the Dr. Pepper ad where the guy came home and found his girlfriend who was an empty bottle with legs on the floor? ha

Yup, I've been there.

I have that very song stuck firmly in my head now. Oh well it's better than a donny Osmond song. . ." Muscrat Love"

[Relic]

lol I'm a little bit country, and I'm a little bit rock n roll. :)

[Mauricio Montoya]

Lol, never could hear as I read wow great great image and each senza follows the steps but I love the ending because it gets back to the beginning, thank god for sharing. I meant good, typo but God is good,lol.

[D. Mansfield]

God is good, thank you sir

[Mauricio Montoya]

Yes but what makes it good , I had to read again.

[Chris Shaw]

You reminded me of so many jingles over the years. So catchy, they stay with you and filter in and out of the mind randomly. I wonder where the yellow went when I brushed my teeth with pepsodent lol. That one just came back. I find the brain and how it repeats so fascinating. Love the Stones by the way.

Absolutely pleasant poem that you're written out there! I loved it. Nice work it is... keep writing more like this!

[D. Mansfield]

Thank-you so much for reading and commenting

If music be anything, it be proof one hears; if music be everything, it be proof we feel.

[D. Mansfield]

I hear, and I feel, peace and live from the 60s run thru my veins.

[emmajoygreen]

I KNOW those from an older brother and love them especially.. they have that something that can never really fade away.

Altogether now, Yayyyyy!

(went to hear a trio call Youki other evening, different and foot tapping worthy! )

I know about a million song lyrics from memory and that's not an exaggeration. It's in my blood but they don't bother me. In fact, I'm upset when I forget a line but that's just a guitar player's prerogative. I enjoyed this.

[emmajoygreen]

Lyrics: musical poems that can raise the body to its feet whilst whispering queries, emotions, in both sunlight and black night? Many thank yous, sir.

[D. Mansfield]

Thank you so much for that

[jacob erin-cilberto]

I like this...brings back memories, not just of the jingles...
In my sophomore year at SIU, Head East used to play near the dorms at free dances...They were already good then, but we had no idea how well-known they would eventually be.

Thank Jacob, I've always had a problem with songs and jingles getting stuck in my head
