"The Music Goes 'Round My Head" is a 1967 song and single by Australian rock group The Easybeats, which was written by band members George Young and Harry Vanda.
On returning from their U.S. tour, The Easybeats began work on the group's next single at Pye Studios in London. The song was influenced by the Jamaican ska music that was currently popular among London's mod scene.[1] Much in the same way The Beatles song "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" would be the following year.
The single was released in the U.K., Australia, Brazil and New Zealand. Various versions of the song have been released. In Spain, a faster version released as the B-side to the "Hello, How Are You" single.
Although it received positive reviews from the U.K. music press, it failed to make an impact commercially.
