Interesting note here, the music industry often relies on people getting a tune 'stuck' in people's heads to make it popular, this is what a hook in a tune is in the music industry. For instance the song 'Hey Ya' by OutKast was initially not well received by listeners, however the AI predicted it would be a hit and record labels had already spent a lot of money promoting it, so if you recall when that song came out you'll remember it was played non stop on the radio until people liked it. They basically forced us to like that song using psychology and this ear worm phenomenon.
