Spanish Equivalent ''Were your ears burning?''

So this is a common phrase to say to someone if you had been talking about them, or someone else had, and then they call you or walk into the conversation. You say, ''were your ears burning?'' I'm not sure if I've given good enough context, anyways, my question is... what's the spanish equivalent to ''were your ears burning?''

no lo decimos así en España, más bien:

¿Te pitan/suenan los oídos?

Where is this common? Like is it universal, or is it more used in Mexico, South America... I'm just curious, I like to learn from all over. =) - DJ_Huero, Jun 20, 2011
In Chile is widely used and I do believe everywhere else. :) - chileno, Jun 21, 2011

Chileno has given great answer, but I just want to see, are there any other options or equivalents? grin
