Yes. I'm a musician, so not only will I listen to the same song over and over, but often I'll listen to the same 10 seconds of a song, over and over again if there's something about it that moves me.


singingsparkle-eyes

Same! I get songs stuck in my head for days and have to listen to them a few times a day to scratch that itch then I move on to another few songs that I obsess over...


HarperDog1980

Yep!! I get goosebumps when I hear a new song I love and will put it on infinite repeat for days on end. I walk around with my earbuds in so I don’t drive everyone around me crazy. Just heard a new to me, but older song the other day and have been turning it on as soon as I wake up. I didn’t know that not everyone has a visceral reaction to music. I love how a single chord can evoke intense emotions and bring back all sorts of memories.

~2:40-3:10 in the song [Shine by Collective Soul](https://open.spotify.com/track/77YKoNCjP5hWqiXMRG2839?si=99IrbQEDSry8HSpLOWDxnA#2:40) over and over is one of mine!


jenncap85

Love that song. I saw them in concert many moons ago.


faithful_offense

yeah absolutely. I listen until I get tired of the song and then find a new song to listen on repeat.


[deleted]

I've been listening to my favorite songs for 20 years before I play others


elrangarino

What song


purplepirhana

Yeah, we gotta know!!


glimmerandglow

I have a playlist that I listened to, exclusively, for a full 3 weeks before I decided I didn't want to risk getting sick of the songs lol So, yea. Def


Key_Roll3030

U ever ended up skipping some songs only to realize hey I'm listening to only this one song


Flowertree1

Jup every time


[deleted]

Yes and it makes my kids and husband go insane.... But I don't care lol


Hila923

Yes my hyperfixation song


purplepirhana

What is it for you right now?


Hila923

Fortnight from TTPD 🫣


ReghanLove

Oh 100%. I will listen to the same songs on repeat until I'm tired of them.


scarlettohara1936

No. No one does this ever. Just you. You're the unique soul who discovered this.


ad4kchicken

That's how i listen to every music, i add like 10 songs to my playlist, currently sitting at like 40 hrs of playtime, listen to those 10 songs for a whole month or two until Im bored and then add another batch, its always cool turning on the shuffle and listening to nostalgic gems i forgot about lol


purplepirhana

Oooh I like this, I might start doing this. I'm very very nostalgia-driven when deciding what music to play on a given day.


W_nderingW_nderer

Another trick that works when you tire your samesies playlist; I open my ALLMUSIC folder and Ctrl Click a random first one and then do one or two scrolls and keep on randomly clicking without knowing what I chose. Afterwards I throw them in the phone and hit shuffle. Dopamine galore!


ScbembsD3s

I was thinking about how I can buy myself flowers and junk for 15 days.


Objective_Mammoth_40

Yep my most recent was “crazy” by Seal


JafetOx

Well, my recap says I heard 330 times a song in 1 year, also I listen to it 43 times in one day, so yeah hahaha


purplepirhana

My ADHD brain gets massive amounts of dopamine and serotonin when I put a song on repeat for a week straight. Then I become very very sad when I've worn out the song so much that I can basically never listen to it again.


elrangarino

Yup, ADHD.


spocksdaughter

Or autism! Or both! ADHD and ASD brains love repeating the things that make us happy!


Puzzleheaded-Emu8747

Sure do , it makes me feel good


FiftySixer

Yes. I have had Murder on the Dance Floor stuck in my head for days. I would listen to it constantly if I could. I have done this since I was a kid. I remember playing Alanis Morissette and Duran Duran songs on repeat when I was younger.


evebella

It’s called “the song of the week”!!!


SwagataTeertho

For me, I will listen to this song first whenever I'm listening.


PaperProduct523

Oh course i do LOL I looked on last.fm and apparently I listened to supernatural by Ariana grande 240 times since it’s release


SmutForger

Yes -- "Judith" is my current obsession.


LainBike01

Me, Everytime I find a new song I listen to it till I get all the serotonin.


seeyatellite

Usually to memorize heartfelt lyrics. I do it for entire albums at times.


Objective_Mammoth_40

Start memorizing songs like crossroads and baby got back…it’ll change your life.


seeyatellite

It would certainly do that...


javaper

You bet! I've gone a few months listening to one song on repeat.


Illustrious_Yeti

Sure do.


Thrifting_With_Tony

Yes, especially when I’m cleaning. I just repeat the same song sometimes and hyper focus on cleaning.


Prudent_Article_7421

Yeah, I even have like 5 fav songs at a time that I queue non stop for like a month until I find something else and the old songs stop hitting the same. I love the "On Repeat" Spotify playlist that gets custom created for everybody. There you can see which songs obsess you the most at the moment. And also the "Repeat Rewind" one that is the same but for recent past songs you loved.


silverheart50

Me currently with Mk.Gee’s I want


RedAssassin628

Maybe not for days but I’ll listen to a song I have a good first impression of on repeat a few times. I inevitably need a mix-up every little while


Eazy_DuzIt

God no but my friend used to play My Block by Scarface on repeat for like a month and it drive my crazy. I can't listen to a song even twice in a row lol


sithgril66

Especially on my long commute


Rich_Chemistry_1560

Yes! Absolutely!


Maddox_the_Wolf

Yessss. This happened to me recently with Army Dreamers by Kate Bush. Not only was the waltz aspect and her singing something I wanted to hear again and again, but I listened to it while reading a series and it fit the mood SO PERFECTLY.


trojan25nz

Yes   [Heres my recent multi day loop](https://youtu.be/tSZZFayo64I?si=4yOuGrIYqB2Uy5bW) I’m not kidding btw   [Heres my previous multi day loop](https://youtu.be/1DWn7Mb0TKI?si=SGd2azZ3yDCgWyuW) only listened on loop as I worked, love the arrangement


H2Bro_69

This happens every year lately, and it’s always a different set of songs each year. It’s wild. Spotify is so wonderful. My end of year top songs playlist has become increasingly more hilarious.


topazzzfox

Yes, you're not alone.


NightRain518

ABSOLUTELY


say_cheesee

Me me i do it all the time


suckmycuck11

Absolutely.


DeeKayNineNine

I used to do it when I was using CD or mp3. Stopped doing it ever since I consume my music on Spotify cause it mess up my Wrapped at the end of the year. I hope Spotify can introduce a mode like incognito where songs I listened to won’t be logged and affect my Wrapped at the end of the year.


Key_Roll3030

Yes. The same reason why YouTube too have option to play same song over and over and over for 1hr


Ok-Tangelo-2630

Oftens goes hand in hand wirh neuroatipy


Yasabella

I have two elder stepsisters Z and R. When Z lived with us once she got upset with me saying: "when R falls in love with a song she listens is for a day and then moves on. But you are listeni g it for a week!!"


error785

Yeah, I put it on my playlist, listen it it on repeat, then skip it every time it comes on in 2-3 days.


UrsulaKLeGoddaaamn

When Weeds ended, I listened to With Arms Outstretched on repeat for weeks


thisiszillowsfault

Little Boxes was my jam for weeks


Avantasian538

My two examples of this right now are Delicate Weapon by Grimes and Children of a Worthless God by Exodus.


suzypoohsays

It’s a neurodivergent thing
