"Suppose I kept on singing love songs to break my own fall"


Get a playlist! Standalone player Get Ringtones


I really should make another category of repetunes for the main reason that "Fidelity" is in my head, but it is just so ridiculous and circuitous that it seems silly. I was fairly obsessed with "Fidelity" about a year and a half ago. Around the same time I was also obsessed with "I Feel it All" by Feist. Because of that, the two songs have become inextricably linked together in my mind. When I hear one I also think of the other. And I heard "I Feel it All" on Saturday which naturally led me to think at length about "Fidelity," even though I haven't heard it in quite a while. And then, four days later, "Fidelity" pops into my head. O mysterious workings of the unconscious. Maybe I can simplify this category of repetunes to songs that I recently thought about, as opposed to songs that I recently heard.

Done.

"Dance, Dance, Dance" - five times in seventeen days - catchy, heard it recently, new obsession
"Fidelity" - once in seventeen days - catchy, processing, prior obsession, thought about it recently
