Not Crap. I do this all the time. I've gone on a two-week stint listening to only one song.
Slight waffles: I try not to repeat stuff a lot when other people are around, spare them the annoyance of my being hooked on something.

Sometimes once just ain't enough.
NOT CRAP, with big waffles for the time I used to have a neighbor with a teenage girl who used to do this on an almost daily basis, forcing me to listen to the same supremely shitty B96-style dance tracks over and over, or else crank up my own stereo loud enough to drown it out.

Yep. I do it too.
When I first got Government Issue's "You" I listened to Young Love some five or six times.

I like doing it. I've done three hour airplane flights and five hour road trips where I've only listened to the same one song over and over the whole time. It's a great way to really *listen* to a song, and hear what's going on. I feel like with really good songs, you haven't come close to hearing the nuances until about the tenth listen or more.

I'll rarely listen to an entire song all the way through multiple times, but certain parts in a song I'll listen to again and again.
For instance, I love the last half of the New Year song "Alter Ego." The intricacy of it is just incredible. It has that main guitar line that repeats for several bars and then suddenly it's just the one guitar and the other joins in for a plinkity planka tinka tanka dunka dinka danka and then it's all done. Beautiful.

When I first heard
Human Shield by Bad Dudes (I downloaded it) I couldn't stop listening to it. Everyone around me hated it. Listen to it... was I crazy?
Also, Dead Red Eyes By Archers Of Loaf and People Staying Awake by Sleeping People.

This may be the most surprising thing I have learned about you peoples' tastes and music listening habits since I registered for the PRF.
One song? For hours? This is crazy to me. I have been really into a song for a week[s] but I've never listened to a song back to back to back to back...
I've listened to a song two times in a row to pay more attention to it. I've listened to a song dozens of times in a few days or a week. But no matter how kickass a song was I can't imagine listening to any song over and over and not getting bored.
