    Wow, you responded really quickly!

    I try to do something similar, though the temptation to listen to more of the stuck song is strong too.

      I believe it was Colbert who was talking about this situation and said you need something really distinctive but not long enough to become a new ear worm. He suggested the “by mennen” jingle, which if you’re too young or not American enough to know it is literally just 2 seconds of singing the company’s name
