Is there an earworm rating scale?

...if there was, this one would score very, very high. I've only watched the video once, and it's burned into my head and it won't get out! I don't even know if I really like the song - I sort of do, but there are elements of it I don't, as well. And, fair warning - it is not a jaunty, happy tune and some of the pictures/video are disturbing. It's about the aftermath of the Chernobyl disaster in the town of Pripyat.

I became interested in the town after reading Wolves Eat Dogs, which was a rather half-hearted mystery but went into a lot of details about the locations around Chernobyl, and was good for that reason.

Would you mind adding the name of the song or artist, please, for those of us who can't watch videos easily?
