Hi folks
An interesting fact for you all: There is actually a word in German for the phenomena under discussion, unfortunately I do not know what it is and will have to get back to you tomorrow. BUT the literal English translation to this unknown word is EARWORM. It seems beautifully appropriate.
Does anybody else suffer from shared earworms, I reasonably regularly burst into song to be told that my partner has not only had exactly that song going through her head but also was exactly at the bit that I had just burst into. It does seem kinda spooky but I am quite used to this sort of thing as I have something that I cannot quite fit between empathy and telepathy.
Key: Complain about this post
