I can't even visualise what you are saying

I don't hear it either, though.

I can. But I can't hear it at all.

I've been hearing the Donkey Kong song in my head for the last 6 hours. If you know how to make it stop, I'm all ears.

Things tend to linger when we don't understand them or didn't initially hear them well

We reprocess them until they make sense
