The fact that Taylor Swift’s romantic dramedy of a song, “Wildest Dreams,” has been stuck in your head for damn days has nothing to do with whether or not it’s good. According to science, the reason why music gets stuck in our heads may have more to do with us — our brains, our personalities and the things we loathe — than it does with the imposing songs themselves.
A 2015 study found that earworms — scientifically speaking, involuntary musical imagery (INMI) — occur more frequently in people with tissue highly concentrated in the parts of the brain that are linked to memory and sound perception, as one would maybe guess if one were able to put the internal music on pause and really focus on the root of the problem.
“We did find a link between certain brain areas involved in music perception and music-evoked emotions and actually, emotions in general,” lead author of the study, Nicolas Farrugia, told CBS.
