Pieces that haunt you all the time

[austinarg]

Those melodies that won't leave your mind, no matter what you do. When you are walking down the street, in the shower, in the classroom, and you find yourself humming or thinking about THAT piece... which pieces are haunting you right now?

For me there are two right now: Beethoven's Op. 111 and Alkan's sonata. I simply cannot stop listening to them in my head. They just won't leave.

The cure is a listen through Alkan's Concerto. Worked for me.


Now if I can only get it to leave........

Interesting...
maybe this is why I don't listen to Alkan's Concerto.

The opening theme of the first movement for the Alkan Concerto.

"...I wannem real thick and juicy
 So find that juicy double
 Mixalot's in trouble
 Beggin for a piece of that bubble..."

genius!

it's catchy. can't help but sing it when strolling down the sidewalk.

The "pie Jesu" from the Faure Requiem.  Not all the time, thank goodness -- but every once in a while it will pop into my head, and then I simply have to stop doing whatever I'm doing and listen to it.

Scriabin Etude Op.42 No.5 keeps with me all the time - and I'm fine with that. 

[redbaron]

At the moment, Borodin's In the Steppes of Central Asia. I'm currently listening to a rather good piano transcription of it by Kyoko Oyagi.

[vsrinivasa]

Ravel's Jeux d'Eau. I am never able to stop hearing it, even when I'm sick.

Chopin Ballade 1. Especially the coda, always seems to pop in my head every now and then.

Chopin Ballade 2 is quite annoying to hear over and over in one's head...
