Music Experiment

For the last 3 months that I was at work I kept track of ever single song that got stuck in my head. And for how long it was there. I realized one night that ever since the dictator outlawed headphones, weird songs would take up residence in my brain so I thought it would be interesting to see which songs popped up - which one popped up more than others and which ones stayed for the longest time. And now here are the results:
