Important warning: Avoid exposure to this song at all costs. Don't be curious. Don't fool yourself. It's the worst type of ear-worm I have EVER heard. If you have already been exposed, please help me spread the warning. My story: I have an old friend that posted a link to a college band that played this tune at a game. It was supposed to just be a funny viral clip on FB. I didn't recognize the song so then I googled the damn thing. A youtube video. I SAW, IT, ONCE! (doo doo doo doo doo doo) not ALL, THE, WAY! (doo doo doo doo doo doo) but,... it's IN, MY, HEAD. (doo doo doo doo doo doo) Lord help me! It's a kid's song very popular with babys and young kids. If you have young kids or grand-kids it's probably too late for you, but for everyone else,...... you HAVE BEEN WARNED.  (doo doo doo doo doo doo)

    Important warning; the above is not a warning, but rather an extension of the conspiracy put out by the World Wide Baby Shark Federation, a.k.a the WWBSF, to infect the rest of the world's population by using reverse psychology; they tell you to stay away, but they know you can't.  It's the end of the world as we know it.

    Your very welcome.
     Before Bolero got stuck in my head it was the penguins and doobie doobie do.

    My son loves the song and it’s on and we sing it regularly. It will play over and over in your head for days without stop. The fear is real...

    I've seen videos a couple of times, but it doesn't stick with me.  I couldn't even begin to hum the tune.

    But now Bolero is stuck in my head, and I'm moving my arm to mimic the Trombone solo.

    I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot.  I will smoke anything, though.

    I was doing fine, sympathizing even until you brought up that Disney song.

    I won't mention the Muppet song Mahna Mahna then, or, heavens forbid, surfing bird.

    No. This is my safe-place. You don't bring that stressful crap here.

    I'm not gonna say what type of person you are Brad, but we all have a word for it. Not everybody has the same word for it but, you know what I mean. You're the kind of guy who likes to share,.....but only stuff like,...... flu germs, and candy (that you don't like).

    I'll say it again, don't be curious. If you still haven't heard it and you're wondering "how bad could it be?" Well, that kid on the right in the thumbnail for the video (the one that looks like he's hopped up on Mountain Dew and cocaine,) he is a visual representation of the ear-worm you will be putting inside your head. Do you really want that in there?

    Well, I don't follow instructions or read warning labels. 🤓
    I was curious so I watched it. 💩
    Once was more than enough. 🚫
    I feel sorry for people with children that have to hear that repeatedly. 😭
    I feel the baby shark earwig burrowing in my head as I type this.😒
    What have I done! 🚑
    Friends don't let good friends smoke cheap cigars.

    Just a few minutes huh? Do you have some sort of immunity to ear-worms?  For most people, it's gonna keep playing automatically in their head, taking more and more time from them, doo doo doo doo doo doo until it wears off.

    And since y'all want to talk about other ear-worms, and since it's that time of year, I want to ask, is this one an ear worm for any of you?
     
    Paul McCartney - Wonderful Christmas Time 

    I hate the song but it's a bad an ear-worm for me. And I get a booster shot of it every year. I made it through November so far without hearing it, but I know I won't make it through December unless I run away and live in a cave until January.
