Pronunciation: mad them

Sentence: It started again the rousing rendition of "Oh say can you see"...over and over again. She tried listening to all other types of music, even annoying songs, but the madthem persisted. Why did it keep haunting her? And then one day, she figured it out. She always fell asleep watching the late, late movie and at it's end, the US National anthem played until she woke up and crawled into bed. The only way to stop the madness was to go to bed earlier...and turn off the darn TV!

Etymology: Mad (affected with madness or insanity) and Anthem (a song of praise,devotion, motivation for a God, nation or cause)

When she heard a strain which should entertain, she instead got a brainrefrainagain. Over and over it would play again, even though she tried to abstain, but in her brain this tune would remain. She tried in vain to remain sane, but her attempts to constrain were a very big drain and soon it nearly drove her insane..."I'm leaving on a Jet Plane..." Oops, I did it again!
