I rarely do this because I always have a fear that I'll get sick of a song
from overplaying it, but there have been a few occasions that stick out in
my mind. I remember playing "Bohemian Rhapsody" over and over when I first
bought the 45 in early 1976. I did get sick of it, for a time, but now I'm
always glad when I hear it.
One noteworthy time this happened was when I bought Game Theory's Lolita
Nation LP in 1987. I remember playing through the first three sides and
most of side four, thinking "this is a good record, but nothing's really hit
me". Then I played the last song, "Together Now, Very Minor" and thought
"my god, this is AMAZING", and played it maybe 7 times in a row. The song
is still in my Top 10 of all time.
The most recent examples have been "Melanie" by The Nines, and "Blue Side"
by Rooney.
