Usually I have music,or basslines that I'm working on, go through my head all day,but today I got a bassline in my head that wouldn't go away,Back On The Chain Gang by the Pretenders.Love this group,and the song,but this has been an off and on earworm for me going on 20yrs.Another is Let's Go by The Cars.Anyone else have this,and what song(s)?

Too many to list them all.  By-Tor & the Snow Dog, The Real Me, the theme from Sanford & Son, Subway to Venus (Chili Peps) just to name a few...  Makes it hard to get work done!

There's probably a bunch, but one that interestingly keeps showing up is by Savoy Brown, which I guess I've been running over and over in my head for four decades now.  It's a simple twelve bar blues tune, but the studio version is just really compelling in its simplicity.  Great keyboard sound, nice biting lead guitar; but I guess it's the repetition of the basic hook that got it stuck in my head.

Man, for me there is a BUNCH of Rush tunes,and Yes for that matter.Haven't heard Street Corner Talking in awhile,good call Dave,now its in my head......

Yeah, the list is endless.  One of my faves to run through my head is Rock On from David Essex.  Dear Prudence is another one.

One of my Favorites is the Jack Cassidy Bass Solo in Candyman.

How about a little Nick Lowe?  Gotta dig those off-beats...

Once had the bassline for 'Do The Bust Stop' by The Fatback Band in my head for ages.
Usually it's the pinched harmonic section by Jaco on 'Birdland'

Physical Cities

(starting at 6:03)
 
Also, there's a Happy Apple song called Where does a stranger go on Christmas? that i can't find a link to. But you should look it up. Because everything Happy Apple does (after their first record) is absolutely amazing.

Speaking of harmonics,one that often visits me for a day or 2 is the beginning section of The Awakening by the Reddings.There is a nice clip on Youtube of a guy doing a play along on his Alembic EVH....

On Reflection by Gentle Giant is the latest earworm for me.  There are worse things..  

I totally get it... specially the All around, all around, all around part....  
 

That Gentle Giant clip was great!

For some reason, the ones that seem to get stuck the most are things I absolutely hate.

Loved the Gentle Giant Vid!I hadn't heard of them until 5or 6 years ago.It's seems these days music is too easily catagorized, and blurring the edges has fallen out of fashion.Sure,there is some crossover here and there,but the audience is dwindling that can appreciate it.I 've always loved progressive music,and hold it up there w/any of the greats.
