Is it normal to always have a song stuck in your head?

I ALWAYS have a song or piece of music in my head. It makes it really hard to concentrate and I can never clear my mind. Is this normal?

Yes. And the term for that event is "earworm."

Concentrate on another song with the same beat, and it should be gone in a few minutes.

I've always got a song stuck in my head. If it makes it hard to concentrate, though, you might want to look into whether its an A.D.D. issue or not. For me it IS the issue... had I known that when I was in school, I might have been able to bipass unnecessary difficulties entirely by just dealing with the issue.

But I don't think its uncommon to have songs always in your head- especially if you love music.

..Hi there, I'm not sure how normal it is or what in fact "normal" really is in the first place, but personally, I really believe that when someone has a song in their head, it is also on their heart, and means that one has a very serene & peaceful, mind, body, and spirit, meaning they also are quite content/happy..Keep singing, and if you really, honestly do want it to go away, then sing out loud so others can hear you too..Take care...

Yes, it is normal, I have it all the time. I wouldn't be worried about it because if you like the songs in your head then there shouldn't be a problem really..

Oh no have confidence me it is common. nicely a minimum of for me it rather is. I hear to music alot!!! Like.... ALOT! lol yet I had youthful continuously via the waiting set caught in my head for each week consistently. So if it rather is a music you're keen on, it will maximum possibly get caught on your head.
