You know the tunes that won't leave your head? The persistent earworms? The ones that just SIT there, and the moment you think you've banished them and are thinking of something else, back they come, bigger and better than ever

The opening from this song was actually a horrible earworm for me for most of my teenage years, because after hearing the song a few times on the radio, I didn't actually know which song that nagging little hook came from.
This song, by contrast, I knew what it was, and at first felt guilty at so constantly getting earwormed by it because it's a feel-good song.
I'd add one other criteria to your listing for why a song gets stuck in your head; it's usually either in a language you know or instrumental. Though I've had this chase me around for days...
Missed ONE space in the code. Let's try it again...this song.
And Finnish, actually. (What's funny is the same group now looks, well, a LOT less housewifey) The lyrics are kind of catty and all about how the girl singing likes to curl up with cute boys; the title is actually "sad and Mournful".
And that one didn't work either. Unfortunately, the only other non-live version i can find is through Vevo, which means it's approved by the artist, but who als9o sometimes stick an ad in front. Grrr. But that's here
