Very worried about getting burnt out on my favourites

This never happens to me! This is dangerous, though, because it sometimes means I am all too happy to stagnate my listening habits when I should be expanding them.

Dome - Cruel When Complete

I seriously thought about making a CD with this song repeated about 25 times. I still might do. For falling asleep to if nothing else.

Zuleika, Monday, 6 December 2010 13:46 (thirteen years ago) link

ive done this recently for the first time in ages with both DVA vs Fatima Just Vybe and Games' Strawberry skies. I think its because theyre pretty short, i want everything to be 15 mins long

straightola, Monday, 6 December 2010 14:55 (thirteen years ago) link

P-model "Echoes"...just incredible

frogbs, Monday, 6 December 2010 15:40 (thirteen years ago) link

Dome - Cruel When Complete

Oh hell yes! When I just had this on Tyranny of the Beat I used to listen to it many, many times in a row.

mini-skirt and gogol books (GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ), Tuesday, 7 December 2010 00:02 (thirteen years ago) link

I like to repeat Lindsey Buckingham's Go Insane and Time Bomb Town on a loop. Time Bomb's guitar follows Go Insane's chorus, which I think is unique.

ILM Flipping - I Kelsey Grammered Your Thread (MintIce), Tuesday, 7 December 2010 00:30 (thirteen years ago) link

I'm certain I've played "Kiss Me Again" four times in a row on numerous occasions.

Kraftwerk - Computer Love

Ismael Klata, Tuesday, 7 December 2010 21:35 (thirteen years ago) link

I don't remember ever wanting to hear a song more than twice in a row and even twice in a row is incredibly rare. I need variety.

peter in montreal, Tuesday, 7 December 2010 21:42 (thirteen years ago) link

sometimes i feel the same way, which requires playing both the track i have played on repeat for like an hour and another track, simultaneously

nakhtar donetsk (nakhchivan), Tuesday, 7 December 2010 21:46 (thirteen years ago) link

nakhtar donetsk (nakhchivan), Wednesday, 8 December 2010 03:57 (thirteen years ago) link

I fell asleep listening to "Around the World" on repeat some time in high school, my parents woke me up and must have wondered what happened to their nice little boy.
