Ever can't listen to enough music?
on: April 07, 2008, 04:14:53 AM
Odd.  Tonight I just am into whatever music I'm listening to.  Can't get enough. 

It's happened before.  I know it will probably wear off. 

I wonder if there's a way to keep that going.

Anyone know?  To be able to listen to a piece of music over and over and have it still sound fresh?

Reminds me of how the military tortures inmates by playing the same song over and over and over again for days until someone cracks. . . .

Has anyone ever tried that before? Voluntarily replaying the same song continuously for days on end? I'm tempted to try, but need the time (perhaps this summer  :D).

I listened to the same CD at least a hundred times over and over this March.  Didn't get old.  Then I completely dropped it.

I can't ever run out of anything to listen to. With roughly 800 GB of music on this computer, I don't think many people would be able to.
