My wife keeps singing music from Into the Woods. It’s a fine musical, and I’m a fan of it, but she’s getting the songs such in my head.

I need ammunition to fight back with.

What’s a good song to play that I can’t get stuck in her head?

    Pompeii by Bastille. Not so much the song but the day-day-oh, day-oh chant that runs under it.

    Somebody That I Used To Know by Gotye. It took me years to get rid of it. I am in danger simply talking about it here.

    Speaking of Day-oh though, the Banana Boat Song made famous by Harry Belafonte and also its appearance in Beetlejuice is a mid tier earworm. It all depends on how evil you’re feeling.

    Edit: 10 imaginary points if you spot what I had to fix.
