> I, the eternal music lover, have been thinking about something for awhile and thought I'd bring it up. I'm sure we've all heard a song that we loved so much, that we listened to it every day...the day just wouldn't be complete without it (or maybe I'm just weird, but anywho).

I couldn't listen to any given song EVERY day and still end up liking it as much as I did the first time. I may not hate the song, but I won't really like it.

> I was just wondering what it is about a song that makes it so great that it doesn't matter how many times you listen to it, you still love it....yet something about it just leaves me riveted and I can't help loving it.

There is one certain song that I will "blare" whenever I hear it, and luckily it isn't played very often. "We Built This City On Rock and Roll" is one of the few songs that I LOVE to hear, but only because it has special meaning to me. Another one is "Love Shack," for it has TWO meanings to me. When I was in drama way back when in highschool, this became "our song" or something like that. We'd listen to it many times, and it never failed to get our energy up. The other meaning it has for me is that, while singing and dancing to this song right before we were to start a show, I fell and hit my head, and got a concussion. Oh, how I love that song.

Mi"not to mention Gershwin's "Someone to Watch Over Me." I love that song. :-)"a
