Drowned, as in hold it underwater until it dies. In this case I'm just filling my head with other music until the offending tune burbles out it's last note.
It's not that I don't like the song. It's that it's one of those chorus lines that just refuses to stop bouncing around the echo chamber perched on my neck.
I might even get around to buying it one day.

Motown Record Company, the first large Black-owned music company in America, was founded on this date in 1959. It was also the source of a variant of Black popular music that earned wide acclaim in the 1960s.
Motown was founded in Detroit by Berry Gordy, Jr., a successful rhythm-and-blues songwriter. The company enjoyed local success and scored its first nationwide hits with singles by two of its earliest musical groups, the Miracles’ "Shop Around" (1960) and the Marvelette’s "Please Mr. Postman" (1961).
