And the top five songs that I can listen to are:  
5. Barcelona by Rick Watson  
4. Anything sung by Andrea Boacelli (sp?)  
3. Anything sung by Zebrahead  
2. Anything sung by Sarah Brightman or maybe that was Brighton

1. Anything sung by Moxy Fruvous

As you can see, I find a group or person and I just fall in love with their music.

“Spiriling Shape” - TMBG  
“Polyester Bride” - Liz Phair  
“Like a Rolling Stone” - Dylan

There’re probably some more, but I’m not really into being repetitious in general. This is just off the top of my head. MPSIMS: I once had a housemate that would get stuck on one song and play it over and over a thousand times. He once played “Piece of my Heart” by Janis Joplin (great song) for about two hours before my other housemates and I threatened him with bodily harm.

_Tone Loc_ took “Wild Thing” (no relation to the _Troggs_ song) to #2 in the U.S. in 1989.
