I've got a Pavarotti ear worm

I'm sure I should be able to get an ointment for it! But I've had Nessun Dorma going through my head for days now, the only way I can rid of it is by replacing it with the other ear worm, the theme tune to Beyond Paradise. I want them both to stop? But how?

Do you get ear worms and how do you stop them?

One of these ideas might help:

Until now, what's worked best for me is to focus on playing the national anthem in my head. It usually clears the problem, without getting "stuck" as a new earworm. Perhaps worth trying. I'll give some of these other ideas a try, too, next time.

There's an antidote for this one... I can help !

Try humming 'You're Beautiful' by James Blunt a few times to replace one worm with another

Yes and in my experience you have to put up with them until they fade. I quite like Nessun Dorma. Like O and U says better than fo it all ….

My Neighbour was telling me about the DIY store called WHSmith Do-it-all. It had some cult adverts that were all very similar in tune - and these had afflicted him with ear worm.

I had to find these adverts on YouTube to see what he meant, and having done so - I'd prefer your worms to his.
