One thing I've noticed lately is that I tend to get songs stuck in my head that I don't particularly like.

Yes, this happens. I don't mind it too much if it is a song I like or love. Sometimes I'll have

But for me sometimes I get a line or two of a Christmas song and it's not even limited to Christmas time where I would conceivably have heard that song.
Why they get stuck I have no idea, but I wish I knew so I could maybe avoid it XD
