Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Not op but have a similar "problem". Straight up an earworm machine over here. But I can control it for the most part

Meditation is not my thing but if the song is getting annoying or too repetitive on a certain part I will intentionally try to distract myself. I certainly do have a monologue that reads, speaks, etc "out loud".

It only takes until i at least know a portion of the song enough to be able to sing along that I can play the majority of it ( as long as I don't get stuck in what I call a lyrical loop where one verse will tie back to an earlier one). It always sounds as is, with the band as well. Even if I don't know the lyrics I can hear the mumblings of that part.
