Science Has Figured Out How to Get a Song Unstuck from Your Head

It's happened to all of us. You get a song or jingle stuck in your head and you CAN'T GET IT OUT!

Getting a song stuck in your head can be annoying. Getting a Christmas song stuck in your head can be a special kind of torture- so this is what I call perfect timing...

There's a 40-second audio track called the Earworm Eraser and listening to it can supposedly get songs UNSTUCK from your head.

It's constantly changing tempos, time signatures, and musical styles, so it won't just become ANOTHER earworm to replace the one you're trying to get rid of.

A lot of people in the comments say it worked for them, although some say it didn't. But it's certainly worth a try now that we're at peak Mariah Carey season, no?
