Since the "Obscure songs you hear at the store" thread is doing so well, I thought I'd try this again; I got some fitful response a couple of years ago, but not as much as that one's getting.
This is for Songs That Pop into your head for no reason. New songs will do that all the time, so let's say that they have to be at least five years old. Let's also say they made the Top 100 on at least one American or Canadian chart; last time people were going overboard with really obscure songs and/or album tracks. It might be easiest to jot them down (or note them on your smartphone), and bring 4 or 5 at a time for each post. It happens to me all the time, so I'll probably come back with 10! I had a really weird one yesterday, but I've already forgotten it...
And let me emphasize: pops into your head for no reason, not ones that you hear that get stuck in your head.

I had "Wait a Minute" by The Pussycat Dolls pop into my head this morning for no reason at all.

For some reason Diana King's rendition of "I Say A Little Prayer" was in my head all day the other day.
Now it's Michael Jackson's PYT.

This doesn't really happen to me a lot, but the last one I remember is Taylor Swift's "We Are Never Ever (Ever Ever Ever Ever Ever...like, ever) Getting Back Together" before falling asleep one night; I lost quite a few good hours from that.  |

This morning it was "You Are the Sunshine of My Life" followed by "I Can See Clearly Now." So random.

Oops, and it got to #11 on the Hot 100! I was thinking of "Hands Across America" by Voices Of America, which only got to #65; so I guess it makes more sense to have popped now!
