I agree with you-it is always music that I have listened to before and I have generally liked. I just find it interesting that meds/sleep/etc seems to dramatically change what I hear and how I "hear it". My Mom has epilepsy (nocturnal seizures) and does hum a LOT-much more than anyone else I know. Wow-this is weird, but I now remember my Mom's Mom (grandma) humming a LOT too. She was hospitalized for mania and given ECT in the '60's. She used to wander around cleaning her house humming a lot, and also "ticking" somewhat by touching her fingers one at a time to her thumb over and over. I don't know anything about that tic.
