tracks you have played on repeat for like an hour

^^^ George Michael's 'Monkey'. When this came out in 1988 I was 14 and made a mix tape to play in my knock-off Argos 'walkman' when I went on a mostly tedious one week summer holiday to Norfolk with my parents - this track was one of the highlights.

I'm gonna be listening to different versions of "New Speedway Boogie" by the Grateful Dead for a while. See you on the other side.

Keep listening to this and watching the singers weird, wannabe David Byrne facial ticks.

brian eno an ending (an ascent) 45 min version

Brian Eno's "Through Hollow Lands". Around 1980 I had it taped on one side of a C90 tape as many times as possible. That's only 45 minutes so I am cheating a little here. I listened to it for meditation purposes. Probably I have never come closer to satori ;- That track for me is perfect to clean my brain of those weird things people usually call thoughts.

Mitski, "Your Best American Girl"

I listened to the fearless vampire killers theme for an hour or two last week and not sick of it yet.

Apparently I'm not the only person who's done this with Tatsuro Yamashita's My Baby Queen:
