I hear music in my head. It's like I have another channel going all the time. It's especially noticeable when I first wake up. But if I stop whatever I'm doing, whatever I'm thinking, I can hear music. Right now I have a lot of James Blunt going, but it varies. People tell me I hum a lot. It's mostly mindless tunes, but sometimes it's a melody from Mozart. I hum when I do ordinary things around my apartment--making someone a drink, fixing a sandwich, folding clothes--things that don't require any heavy-duty thinking.
I know this happens to other people; but it's not the kind of thing you go up to someone and say, "Hey, do you hear music in your head?" I get enough funny looks as it is without bring that up. But I also know this type of brain activity is not going on in the average brain. In a way, it's kind of fun. You never know what song will be playing when you first wake up. Kind of like turning on the radio. But other times, it's downright annoying, especially if the song is one I don't particularly care for. In that case, I change the channel by deliberately playing another tune up there or listening to a CD.
At any rate, it beats boredom.
