Earworm - the experience of a song stuck in the brain. I find myself getting earworms so often haha. My latest one is this song, I Want To Be In Fabric by Todd Edwards, particularly the part starting at 2:28. Gives me massive Freezepop vibes omg!

What are some songs that have been stuck in your head lately that you'd like to share? πŸ˜ƒ

It's not a song and it's not fun and light-hearted and I'm kinda sorry if this fucks anyone's week up.

It's a reading of "Boots" by Rudyard Kipling, written about the Boer Wars in the late 19th century. It's used in the trailer for the upcoming follow-up to "28 Weeks Later" to great effect, which first drew my attention.

It is possibly the most haunting thing I've heard.

I'm serious when I say this may fuck your week up.

That was incredible, honestly. Fantastic reading. Kind of reminded me of Son House, actually. I feel like the hammer blow rhythm of this poem would match up perfectly with some rattling resonator guitar licks.
