I'm one of those people with music constantly playing in my head, and
I do occasionally end up hearing either two pieces or two different parts
of the same piece running concurrently. It's totally in the background --
the music just plays along pretty much no matter what I'm doing, like
someone left a record player running. I don't think the "frontal lobe" is
involved at all except as an occasional listener. Architecturally, I
suspect that the parts of my brain that record and play back music tend to
just idle in playback mode, and my conscious brain doesn't do much of
anything to suppress them or block it out.

My father worked with a guy in the Army (57-60 era) that was a CW operator.
He copied code groups with split headphones, his left ear on a typewriter,
right ear written down, speaker in front of him he remembered until a pause
in one of the other messages and copied it down. He did have to be locked
up a few times per year.

Occasionally I stumble on something too incredible to not share,
immediately, with everyone. In this case I'm inclined to not even apologize
for using the bandwidth. At least not in advance.
Anyone intrigued by human perception of sound, especially musicians and
ambidextrous CW ops, will find this fascinating, baffling, and perhaps
enlightening in some way I can't predict:
