I don't often get full songs stuck in my head, but one particularly alliterative or catchy line? All the time. So if this happens to other people, what's stuck in your head?
My current example: "While he was working on a film on Ancient Rome / He made the slave girls take the gladiators home." - My Husband Makes Movies, Nine

Posted: 5/29/07 at 10:32amThis past weekend, I had the lyric "He answered duty's call" stuck in my head. It took me a long time to remember it was from "One More Angel in Heaven" from Joseph...Dreamcoat.

It's more a verse, but...
My bird is about to learn Lizzie's "You ride in your bright shiny wagon" verse from "You're Not Fooling Me" in 110 In The Shade because I've been singing it ever since I got the cast recording on Thursday. He's actually getting pretty good. :)
LIVE THAT LESSON!!!!!!

Posted: 5/29/07 at 12:07pmIt's nothing life-changing but I can't stop singing, "The moment you walked in the joint..." just that one line.

The one line that has stuck with me since I first saw this show years ago in London (with The Dame herself -- Miss Dench)
"To Flirt with rescue when one has no intention of being saved"-- from A Little Night Music.
It is one of those lines that haunts me to this day.

Posted: 5/29/07 at 3:25pmLately, it's "Blah blah blah" in "Totally F*cked" in from "Spring Awakening." I don't know why, really. Maybe the tune's just catchy.

Posted: 5/29/07 at 3:26pmEvery time I watch Angela Lansbury in Sweeney Todd I end up with "Where are you hiding? Nothing's gonna harm you, darling, not while I'm around... demons are prowling everywhere, nowadays..." from when Mrs. Lovett is under the bakehouse stuck in my head.

Not so much a lyric as a line of dialogue, but from Amy and Bobby's exchange right after "Getting Married Today":
"You need to want to marry SOMEbody.. not some BODY."
