Pretty much most of my life I thought everyone had this (as well as vivid imagination) but now I dont think its as common. Like I can cue up any song in my head and it plays through, all the instruments relatively separated etc. A similar thing happens for writing music, I can write song after song and rarely feel like I "dont have any ideas".

Sometimes I wish that power could actually be utilized..

My brain is more like a skipping record. I get to hear the same part of a song in an endless loop until my brain decides to move on to something else.

I fucking swear, dude, there was a period of TWO MONTHS where I had this thing stuck in my head 24/7.

Currently, I have had the main theme from Midnight Run stuck in my head for a week, which is a mood booster, so I don't mind.

Your version sound cool, tho!

I regularly get the chorus of Weiners as an earworm.

One Weiner next to another Weiner.......

Check out George Rafferty's "Baker Street". You won't know it by the intro, but once it hits the chorus you'll recognize that beautiful saxophone solo. It's such a pleasant snipit to have floating around :)
