   What isn't? Whatever you replied to didn't show up here.   
      
   In any case my vote is for "The Third Man Theme". That zithering is   
   definitely an earworm.   
      
   I'd also vote for "Tenser said the Tensor" if it was a real thing. Its an   
   annoying song in Alfred Bester's "The Demolished Man" - his description   
   of it tells you how to write song that's a guaranteed earworm.
