Songs you just start humming at random

Just now, I started humming the overture from The Color Purple. Just this afternoon, I was quietly singing the title song of Bright Lights, Big City.

And just now, as I was turning off the fan 'cause it was getting kinda nippy, I said, "Cold, cold, would you light my candle."

every morning now for some reason I wake up with Lion King in my head. "I'm gonna be a mighty king..."

"You Can't Stop the Beat" (repeatedly)
"Move That Thang"

The weirdest one I ever started humming was "Love Sneaks In" from DRS. I'm not a big fan of the song and I hadn't listened to the cast recording in ages, so I have no idea why it popped into my head.

^Well, it's the exact same music as Valjean's Soliloquy, which is about beginning a new life, so it just depends on how you view it lol.

re: Songs you just start humming at random

I'm one of those incredibly annoying people who will launch into 'La Vie Boheme' from 'RENT' at ANY mention of ANYTHING that's referenced in the song. And there's a lot of references in there. O_o

Usually though, I find that the songs that get stuck in my head are the most inappropriate ones to start singing in a job where you work with the public - perennial favourites include pretty much everything from 'Avenue Q' and 'My Unfortunate Erection' from 'Spelling Bee' - or the ones I've been listening to a lot lately. So for me at the moment, it's some random ones from 'Assassins' (frustratingly, today it was the "Have it your way" monologue, of all things!) or 'Finishing The Hat' from 'Sunday In The Park With George'. ^_^

Whoever said Kansas City was spot on. I bust out "they've gone about as fer as they can go" at every opportunity.

I also do "It's fine, it's fine, it's fine" from A Miracle Can Happen L5Y all the time.

I've had the "But when I try my dear to make it clear..." section of "Marian the Librarian" from THE MUSIC MAN in my head ALL MONTH. Every day, and I have no idea why.
