I think "I Wanna Be Like You" from The Jungle Book would top my list, or maybe "Mmm Bop". I applauded when Hanson were crushed by a giant Bender in Futurama.

Or Uncle Kracker's "Follow Me", which did for a month solid every time I turned on a TV when it was released. Try what I might, there was no escape from the fucker.

What about TAINTED LOVE by Soft Cell. That song still induces homicidal thoughts.

Great, now I'm gonna have Fernando stuck in my head all day. That is an absolutely great list though...

Any Abba song is bad to have stuck in your head. Love to Love You Baby is bad. Really any disco song is bad. The worst thing that can happen though is when song make a medoly not unlike a K-Tel commercial, or if you only get the part from a commercial in you head. Getting a song that is in a different language is also very bad
