Atwater Vitki Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 Don't you hate it when a song gets stuck in your head?There was a commercial for 50's tunes on TV the other day and Frankie Valli's "hit" "Walk like a Man" was one of the featured songs...I heard only about 30 seconds of it and now it won't LEAVE!!!What's worse is it is not Frankie's lyrics that are stuck:Oh how you tried to cut me down to sizeTelling dirty lies to my friendsBut my own father said give her up don't botherThe world isn't coming to an end(he said just) Walk like a manTalk like a manWalk like a man my sonNo woman's worthCrawling on the earthJust walk like a man my sonGood-bye baby I dont mean maybeI'm gonna get along somehowSoon you'll be cryin on account of all your lyinOh yeah just look who's laughing now(I'm gonna) walk like a manFast as I canWalk like a man from youI'll tell the world to forget about it girlAnd walk like a man from you ©1959 Frankie Valli...rather the perverted one's we came up with in high school...(to which I still think is why they called it "High" School!)...Walk like a man, While singin' like a girl,Sing like a girlWhile walkin' like a ma-a-a-n(Oh won't you come out tonight come out tonight) - yes borrowed from another songWhile walking like a dude,An' singin' like a girl,Sing like a girl,While talkin' like a ma-a-a-nNo dude can sing,while walkin' like a girlSo we'll just have to...1...2...3..4Walk like a MAN,While singin' like a girl,Screech like a girlWhile walkin' like a man my friend...While walking like a dude,An' singin' like a girl,We'll sing like a girl,While walkin' like a ma-a-a-nand over ....and over....and over....and now, if it gets stuck in your head at least I won't be in 100%, sheer misery all alone!!!

Raven's Trikes Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 BpCorey sure can find stuff....If this a thread about about that song only, I don't where to go with that...If it about what song is stuck in your head, not the same as current mood mind you, the it would be ,..... don't know why.

Hyper Real Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 (edited) I looked at something that kind of neutralizes the rhythmic patterns of "Walk Like a Man" (a little like harmonious stones in a Zen garden) and I came up with this:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uxd1t6d9B9g&feature=relatedPlay this some twenty times, while vocalizing 'walk like a man' rhythmically, and the 'ta ta ta ta" from Frankie should be history No guarantees that this piece will not stick instead....

(at least there are no words) you surprised me, I didn't see you see as one who listens to much music, but that piece was very nice (as long as I don't think about Frankie, that just ruins it).Stand Down just won't get out of my head...I would so not fit in with those guys, then again I'd like to see them walk the streets of Baltimore dressed like that...Indie and Btown are two different worlds for sure.

Atwater Vitki Posted July 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 Well I certainly thank everyone for their diligent work at finding a remedy for my dilemma...I thought it would ring a bell as I don't know anyone who hasn't had this particular problem and it always seems to be with the most ridiculous songs. Spent almost a week with Janis' "Mercedes Benz" about a month ago, which wasn't so bad as that's one song I actually know all the formal lyrics.Anyway, would like to report that I awoke this morning with full on DT's from one of my meds and that seemed to do the trick as nothing but a whining buzz was to be heard as well as contracted leg muscles and stomach cramps sent from Helja herself...so I guess there are many ways for which to cleanse the mind of unwanted evil Spirits! Looks like a day spent entirely in wheel chair for sure.Again, I thank each of you for your advice and hope this will not occur again, until the next time, and I will keep your recommendations a click away!Blessings of Peace, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
