The songs of musicals are SUCH an ear-worm.
I never realized it as a kid, but now it becomes obvious: when I hear a traditional song, like a pop song, I need time and several careful listening to get the words right, memorize the lyrics, put it in my head...
But a song from one of those stage musicals, or movies inspired by them? You listen to it once AND YOU SING THE ENTIRE SONG BY HEART ALL DAY LONG BECAUSE IT HAUNTS YOUR EVERY THOUGHT
