Have you ever had a song stuck in your head? The one that intrudes into your mind like an unwanted house guest, and continues to play for hours and hours, and you can’t seem to turn it off?
This documentary explores Earworms, a phenomenon experienced by 90% of people at least once a week, and how it may disrupt your good night sleep.
