Do you ever feel like certain songs follow you?

I'm not talking about songs that are really big right now and are on the radio all the time, but rather, older songs. Lately, I feel like I'm hearing "Raspberry Beret"wherever I go.

They seem to go in spurts. I won't hear a song for ten years and then all of a sudden I hear it four or five times within a day.

Yup!

Yes! A couple of months ago I couldn't go anywhere without hearing Give Me Shelter. It even came up on my iPod twice in a row one day.

Let's Dance by David Bowie
I hear this song at every store I walk in to.

Yes! This has always baffled me. Especially when you don't hear it for years and then it's on two channels at the same time/right after one another. I often wonder if radio stations listen to each other to see if the other is playing a song they forgot about.

Not a particular song but one time I lived with a girl who swore that Sting was stalking her because every single day she would either hear a song or he would be referenced on TV or the radio in some way. I used to think she was crazy and then a 2 week period went by when I saw it happen, it's like Sting wouldn't go away (and he wasn't even that popular at the time).

Credence Clearwatar Revival was stalking me for a while. They have backed off a bit, though.

I'd typed out a message saying that a few years ago, I'd hear Matchbox Twenty like 16 times a day. It never failed and it was always in weird places. I accidentally closed the window before actually posting it, but now I wish I had...."Push" just came on Pandora. It's been like 3 years since I've heard ANY Matchbox Twenty!
