I wear out songs like it ‘aint no thang
It’s a ridiculously bad habit…when I find a new song that I super love, I will listen to it no fewer than 672 times over the course of approximately 1 day. And I know I’m wearing it out and setting it up to be unlistenable and boring, but I can’t help it.
HOWEVAH, there are a few (and I mean few) songs out there that absolutely never wear out. For me, they are:
All My Friends, LCD Soundsystem
Polyester Bride, Liz Phair
Southside of Heaven, Ryan Bingham
Troubadour, George Strait
A Whole New World, Aladdin
I’m Good, I’m Gone, Lykke Li
Imitosis, Andrew Bird
Audience, Cold War Kids
Float On, Modest Mouse
1979, Smashing Pumpkins (this one only sort of counts, because it has some specific history attached)
Everywhere, Tim McGraw (ditto for this one)
You Belong to Me, Patsy Cline
