No earworm in Brian's music?

I just noticed a strange thing about music composed by Brian, i.e. I never experienced an "earworm" caused by one of his songs. On the contrary, I can use one of his tunes to counter an earworm.
Is it only me?

lol, probably just you.
There's even an episode of the Big Bang Theory about one of Brian's earworms, it's so entrenched in popular culture.

Yeah, it's definitely only you. LOL.
I even find myself involuntarily humming sections of such Wilsonian arcana as "Still I Dream of It" and "The Spirit of Rock and Roll."

I suppose I don't get BB songs stuck in my head as often as some other stuff, but I do on occasion get them stuck anyway.

A few years back, during a particularly stressful time, I would wake up to the refrain to “Hawaii”. Lasted for months before it went away.

That's a good one. I don't get annoyed by it, but I get the non-verbal vocal descending line from Barnyard in my head sometimes
