What's funny, and interesting is the short list of tunes that play in my head, and sometimes I find them playing out loud. I will be slogging damp manure and catch myself humming away.My top two? A couple of classics: Ode to Joy and Yellow Submarine. They just start playing to the rhythm of the work.
Does this happen to you? What are your "work" songs, or am I the only one that has Beethoven and the Beatles appear when I work?

I can understand the rhythm to match the task. I have the same when knitting if I don't have some other distraction, i.e., the TV on in the background. The tunes I hum are generally the last I heard somewhere and I can't get them out of my head.
Thinking of you shoveling manure and humming Ode to Joy just tickles me. :) What a hoot!
That sometimes happens too. Power of suggestion.
Once my neighbor mentioned the goat herder song from the Sound of Music. That popped back for weeks. Still does once in a while. Yodela!
