Woman Like a Man - Damien Rice
Take Me Out - Franz Ferdinand
Lover I Don’t Have to Love - Bright Eyes
The District Sleeps Alone Tonight - the Postal Service
B is for Brutus - the Hives
And that Simple and Clean song that **Stonebow **mentioned up thread is really catchy. Don’t be ashamed.
The bad thing about liking a song so much that I endlessly put it on repeat is that I inevitably get tired of it, and no longer like it as much as I did when I first heard it. All of the above songs have suffered this disillusionment. I still like the songs, but that “this is such a great song!!” excitement is gone. In the case of songs that have been so overplayed, like Hey Ya - Outkast, will take years for me to like again.
Suffragette City - David Bowie Back in the USSR - Beatles Stuck in the Middle With You - Steeler’s Wheel (otherwise known as “the Ear song” for obvious reasons :eek: 60 Miles an Hour - New Order Walk Idiot Walk - The Hives Country House - Blur
Rebel Heart, by the Corrs. This is truly one of the loveliest pieces of music I’ve ever heard and I don’t seem to tire of it at all.
Teo Torriate by Queen always gets played at least twice.
And, OK, I will admit it - when I’m cleaning house like a lunatic, I sometimes alternate between Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go and Love Shack for hours on end. Because, you know, then the duster becomes a microphone…
