I'm the type that it drives me crazy to hear the same song twice in a row, even my favorites. One song, then a different one, then back to the first is fine, but in a row stresses me out

That's really interesting to me, as I either obsess over a song and play it repeatedly or I need to listen to music that doesn't interest me but is pleasant. It's like I have polar opposites of interest within me.
