Why do I always have a song playing in my head?

Why Earworms Get Stuck In Our Heads. Earworms can occur due to the brain’s attempt to fill a gap in the auditory cortex, which is located in the temporal lobe. When you hear a song over and over, the brain transmits that sound information to the “phonological loop,” a short-term memory system in the auditory cortex.

How do I stop hearing music in my head?

Chew some gum. A simple way to stop that bug in your ear is to chew gum. Listen to the song. Listen to another song, chat or listen to talk radio. Do a puzzle. Let it go — but don’t try.

How do I find a song that is stuck in my head?

On your mobile device, open the latest version of the Google app or find your Google Search widget, tap the mic icon and say “what’s this song?” or click the “Search a song” button. Then start humming for 10-15 seconds. On Google Assistant, it’s just as simple. Say “Hey Google, what’s this song?” and then hum the tune.
