Woke up with a monster in my head

in music •  5 years ago 

Okay, not really. This is a post about a song I woke up with in my head, which you may or may not already know, depending on whether or not you've seen some of my previous posts. It's a good song, so I suppose you're sort of in luck there. Or maybe you'll think it's a horrible song. In which case, I hate to inform you that you are very unlucky, as you have been born with brain damage. Or maybe you developed in later in life, I suppose. I didn't think about that.

The video itself has some great animation that you'll probably enjoy more if you also enjoy drugs. Just saying. Don't shoot the messenger.


This post is part of an ongoing series in which I document the songs which are in my head immediately upon waking.


I don't know if this is something that is common with everyone or not, but I seemingly wake up with a song already in my head every single morning. There is often no reason why it should be there. I hadn't heard it in the previous day, hadn't discussed it, nothing. Do you wake up with songs in your head on a regular basis? What song was in your head this morning? Comment below, I'd love to hear from you!

I've been documenting these songs for a while. It's not every day, but just when I think of it. Here is the list so far.

You must listen to a TON of music LOL

Great selection you're starting to accumulate here. You should make it into a YouTube playlist and we can play it on the Canna Radio :)

Honestly, I listen to a lot of podcasts most of the day. That's the weird thing about me waking up with songs in my head every day. You're right, I should make a playlist instead of just a list. Though, I post them whether they're good songs or not, so it's not necessarily "recommended listening" sometimes, but more of a documentation.

I should make an effort to make it into the Discord more often!
