Stuck in my head
Do you ever get a song stuck in your head? You keep singing it over and over in your mind.
Last weekend I edited the Catch Word episode about the word wannabe. In it, Jessie and Maura talk about the singer Lady Gaga and how someone might be a Lady Gaga wannabe and dress like her and say provocative things like she does. It’s an interesting episode so check it out here if you want to know what a wannabe is.
Well, ever since I listened to that episode I’ve had Lady Gaga’s song Poker Face stuck in my head. Here’s a short clip of the song. If you’re interested in learning more about what a poker face is, check out our Catch Word episode titled Stone, where Maura and I discuss the idiom poker face.
When a song is stuck in my head, I often find myself humming it out loud too. To hum a song is to make the tune of the song without opening your lips and singing the words. I’m really bad at singing (and actually even at humming), so people can never recognize what song it is.
What song is stuck in your head?

One day around three month ago, I visited culips.com for the first time, then downloaded a few podcasts and listened to them and I found this podcast so useful and full of fun. After that day I decided to listen to the podcasts everyday. So I downloaded all of the podcasts and continued to listen to them until now and it really helped me improve my English and now I'm so absorbed in following this great podcast. I want to thank this amazing team for their great job in teaching us English with their warm voices and their honest works. Thank you so much Maura, Harp, Robin and Jessie.

Hi: I use to get many songs stuck in my head. Currently I am humming some Grease songs.
Regards.
