Sometimes I think I have control like I "decided" to move, although don't think I actually have much control.

Comment on What's something you don't understand the appeal of? in ~talk
maauer Link ParentI've done this on occasion and, yes, after a few days I get tired of a song. It needs to be a song that clicks in a certain way.

However, I can listen to it on repeat for 5+ hours a day for a week before that happens. For me its kind of like this comment above where the music is just something to fill a void and distract myself from the world and my own thoughts. A song that I know very well makes it easier to work on other things while listening, after a while my brain no longer latches onto the music.
It does take a few weeks/months to be able to listen to that song again though.
