they say it's an addictive game maybe because of the background.

An Earworm is a term for a portion of a song or other musical bit that gets "stuck" in someone’s head and repeats continually against a their will. Often, relief comes only when it is swapped with a newer fragment from another tune.

That used to happen to me when playing Blood Money (an Amiga game by Psygnosis).

Haha thats a great song. The first time I heard it in Portal I searched for an mp3 of it.

This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS.
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction.
Aperture Science
We do what we must
because we can.
For the good of all of us.
Except the ones who are dead.
But there's no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.

If you have an "earworm" problem, never and I repeat, never watch the Backyardigans.
I sometimes feel like an insane person that needs to drill a hole in my head to lets the songs out. I run around squeezing my head bouncing off the walls.<<J/K but they will make you nuts.
