Maybe I'm playing too much, but I find myself humming or singing the Star Wars songs in my head all day! It's driving me nuts. Any of you other musicians afflicted by the constant tunes we are playing? Maybe we can start a support group

I sing a few star wars themed songs in the cantina (well its text.. but we'll call it singing)


they include-


"Max rebo band" a rendition of the pianoman by billy joel...


"the saga begins" weird al (SW version o fAmerican Pie)


at the star wars cantina... (dont remember who sings it, prolly weird al)



I can often be found @ work singing these songs.... my co workers have learned to ignore it or just tease me about it.


but yes, I feel ur pain....

I feel you, man.


The other day I was in City Hall doing some paperwork, and I had some song running through my head, putting me in a good mood. I didn't notice for maybe an hour, and all of a sudden I realized I had been thinking this song to myself.


It was Folk.


I would have assumed I'd hate the song by now, but it sounded pretty good!

You mean like the way star wars 3 has been playing in the background of my mind for the last 2-3 hours?


I take it as a sign that I need to work up some new routines. *heh*

LMAO! Luckily my BF is a huge Star Wars fan too and we often both whistle the cantina song while going about our business in our apartment. occasionally we both add a few "flourishes" when we come into the same room. i also find myself whisteling the song while i'm at work much to the annoyance of my co-workers. the only reason they get mad at me is because it gets stuck in their head too! i don't fel bad though. even before i started playing this game the cantina song and the Imperial March would often be heard coming from my lips. If Wagner was still alive i think he would like the Imperial arch more than his own Ride of the Valkyries lol! several Looney Tunes songs and the Indianna Jones theme are also in my repertoire.


if this makes me insane so be it! but i think it has more of a tendency to make others around me insane than anything else.

Hello..my name is Esharra and I can't get rid of the Three Stooges Theme Song. I'm hoping there is a recovery program for this.


(My best friend taught my parrot to whistle the Stooges song a few years ago..I will get my revenge..I will.)

I was in the car with some friends the other day, and they kept asking me what I was humming. I didn't realize that I was humming. It was various band songs from the game. I was a little embarrased.

True confession ...


I turn off the SWG sound and turn on my CD's. Forgive me musicians but I just can't take it. I do find the dance moves fit pretty well with my CD's tho. I suppose that means I need even more help than the rest of you.

I admit it, I hear music in my head that no one else hears!


Actually, the first Tuesday after release I was struck with a migraine. Laying in the quiet, dark room I start hearing the Cantina song. Since I had just been shot up with Stadol I thought someone really was playing the song. Thank goodness I did not ask anyone else if they heard the music!


By now I have turned off the ingame music (unless my favorite Twi'leck is playing). It is fun to try to figure out what dances fit with Doors, Hendrix, Led Zepplin and the like.

I was thinking about using my character on my Christmas cards this year. How crazy is that?

Hey, I've done this too! I've found new life in old CDs this way! I've found some songs fit perfectly with some dance steps!

I'm not in the young generation myself, so I play Billy Joel, Santana, Stevie Ray and even Chicago or Doobies while I dance. Popular2 is a very versatile step for most of these, though some of Stevie's slower, smokier blues numbers give Exotic a whole new meaning

What matches have worked the best for you guys?
