Contextual Earworm Phenomenon

Ever get a song in your head that’s related to prior thoughts or actions? Sort of a contextual earworm, perhaps…

For example:
I got startled when a cab driver nearly ran me over. Shortly after that, I realized I had Wolfsheim’s “Once in a Lifetime” in my head. (Calm down my heart / Don’t beat so fast / Don’t be afraid…)

On the last day of a fun vacation, I had “Dr. Online” in my head all day. (It’s the beginning of the end… )

More than once I’ve hit the snooze button and had Tapping the Vein’s “Everything” begin in my head. (They tell me I have to get out of bed… )

I was doing QA on a site called Above the Influence. I talked to someone about the Nine Inch Nails concert that night. Later I realized I had “Down In It” in my head. (I was up above it… )

And so forth.

This happens to me constantly. Anyone else have this happen?

In more ways and in more places than I would like it to.
