this song blows my mind. one of the best songs to ever live. i've been here sipping coffee on my day off, headphones on and this song on repeat... i love that. but as a songwriter it's a real mind fuck when you get all obsessed with a song and it's equally inspiring and rock bottom humbling. what are some songs that you've put on repeat for hours at a time? do tell.

I've never been averse to putting a song on repeat for hours at a time. The first one that comes to mind is Babybird's "Little White Man," which I let play continuously for about 12 hours one night. To be fair though, I should mention that I am usually coming in and out of the song at will while it repeats endlessly.
I know what your saying on the mind fuck. Occasionally a song just hits you the right way at the right time and you wonder to yourself why you even bother. It is decidedly bittersweet being so lucky as to finally connect with something brilliant while (perhaps falsely) realizing that you will never be on the giving end of that kind of a connection.

Stacey Earle - Must Be Love, because it's so damm infectious.

Funny you should post about this song in particular, because it's probably one of the songs i've put on "repeat" the most.
This may be common knowledge, but did you know Cohen wrote this song about Janis Joplin?

awesome song, without a doubt. i maintain there is no better way to love a song but put it on repeat. off the top of my head, i definitely did so for Mogwai's Burn Girl Prom Queen, Wilco's How to Fight Loneliness, The Kingsbury Manx's How Cruel, Low's Lullaby. (8
