Not a song, my current fixation has been the album Aquarius by Haken. It's grown on me a little.
Watched them live recently, and it gave me new appreciation for their new stuff, "in a fever dream" turned out to be great.
Hey, remove the tracking stuff on your YouTube link, it shows your YT profile @LadyButterfly
(the part starting with ?is=)
Also fear factory rips
Fear factory does indeed rip
I'm already recovering from the second burnout from one song
That is perfectly normal.
I just recently started listening to Nothing Else Matters again. The cello version from the Wednesday soundtrack. Two years ago I listened to it over 300 times, according to Spotify.
I've a playlist called shutupdammit that is just "shut up" and "dammit" by blink 182 to play on loop. It's always there for me when I need to take a drive and have a shouty temper tantrum for emotional regulation
Ordinary kid, call me back.
Neal Diamond "Play Me".
Beach Life In Death by Car Seat Headrest. Somehow I’ve been a fan for years and just discovered it a month or so ago.
It's not the songs I listen to. It's the ones that play in my head for weeks at a time.
Acc. to my scrobbler stats:
Highest this month:
- Ado - Raven Sky
Highest of the year:
- Mori Calliope, Kobo Kanaeru - Midnight Mayoi
Now, according to me:
-
Architects - Doomsday
-
Architects - Deep Fake
-
Bury Tomorrow - Abandon Us
-
Chaosbay - Willows By The Lake
-
Sylosis - A Sign Of Things To Come
-
Corelia - The Sound Of Glaciers Moving
Uh, well, my last.fm says I’ve listened to REM Losing My Religion nearly 1k times
Haha that's a song that I have found myself listening to on repeat maany times over the years, too! :)

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

Jean Michel Jarre's Equinoxe V, it's that sweet '70s analog melodic synth stuff I like.
The one song stands out from years and years ago is so it's really important in this sense is LOITUMA: IEVAN POLKKA.
But right now I have the Kpop Demon hunters album on repeat...

Currently?
Gold Dust (Fox Stevenson remix) - DJ Fresh, Fox Stevenson
Not that I only listen to that one song, but I always come back to it at least once a day, often more.
It's never a bad time for Protest the Hero - Sequoia Throne.
Sonic 2 OST
The whole Interstellar score
Zero Wing OST
Quackshot OST
Shadow Dancer OST
Dune 2000 OST
I think that covers about 90% of my loops, I need something so I can concentrate that I know by heart. It keeps me from getting distracted.
Aqua Regia by Sleep Token.
Banger
Champagne Supernova by Oasis
It used to be one I played everyday at least once.
Banger. It's also on the front page of my music home screen because I play it so much.
Its not normal?
I think it's fine. If you're working and you have some familiar beat on as background music it can get you in the zone.
Musicolet says Hush by Muse and Ellie Golding is at #1 with 71 plays. So far.
None of them. And I resent the constant insinuation on this website that every autistic person listens to songs on repeat. I have genres I listen to, but I'm always looking to add albums to the rotation.
I’ve listened to Bizarre Love Triangle so many times, but there are quite a few different mixes and cover versions.
Right now accoring to Musicolet
TOP Ten repeats but not my top for the last few weeks.
- Casting Aside by Rogue Traders
- Negasonic Teenage Warhead by Monster Magnet
- Protection by by Massive Attack
- Take the long way home by Supertrmp
- Everyday is exactly the same by Nine inch nails
- Drift and Die by Puddle of Mudd
- Spin you around by Puddle of Mudd
- Du Hast by Rammstein
- Engel by Rammstein
- Down Down by Bachman-Turner Overdrive.
The one I've playing more and more on repeat lately is
Serenity by Godsmack and Its currently at 18.
Love Massive Attack. Mine is Paradise Circus, by them. Every note is so perfect it's like I can't even imagine how a person gets to creating a song like that.
For me, it's pretty rare that I come to like a remix better than the original song. But this is one example of that. I'm sure you know this but other people might not: the singer is Hope Sandoval from Mazzy Star.
Paradise Circus is definitely in my rotation. Great song.
SWAGGERHAVERZ! by ISSBROKIE at the moment. A few dozen times so far.
A Winter Skirmish - Ori and the Will of the Wisps OST
I've only played it a few times, though.....
Checks play count
161 times played
Oh....
Ich Will - Rammstein
I extremely rarely only listen to one song, usually full albums or nothing. I must've listened to Aus-Rotten's The Rotten Agenda every morning on my way to work for a year. Every year or so I find an album and it blows my mind.
Not to oversimplify but I wonder if this could be an objective way to measure it (though perhaps hold off while Trump&Co. are in office for concentration camp reasons):
-
Pick your favorite song
-
Listen to it as many times as possible, record the count
272 would make me claw my ears out, but is completely comfortable to others.
O.P.P. (Instrumental Version) – Naughty By Nature
USAGI note (2026) from Takeaki Watanabe https://tidal.com/track/559066302/u
So much emotion in this song that even after listening to is so much, I still find my eyes full of tears hearing this melody after a rough day.
