Default My last song on repeat

Every once in a while I hear a song and can’t help but play it 3, 4, 5, or more times in a row. Today I had that happen with Warren Haynes’s Soulshine with the Allman Brothers.

What was your last repeater song/album?

This used to happen to me often when I was much younger. Can't say I've been compelled to repeat listen to any song/album in decades. The last time I can recall that it happened was with the song 'Easy To Slip' off of Little Feat's Sailin' Shoes album, around 1972-73.

I like this band - the full band - and singer Kylie Auldist. I also like (love) noodling and doodling off of barre chords. So I have and sometimes repeat playing along with this or repeat the underpinnings with the melody in my head.



I also put things with repeatable or similar patterns on repeat. Imagine and No Woman No Cry get in kind of brainless repeat with a simple pick up of the guitar.

Same song in different key repeat will be Stand By Me. From open chords with acoustic or D barre chord with electric.

I recently felt compelled to put "A Man I'll Never Be" from Boston on repeat during a guitar buffing session (about an hour). I never tire of that song.

Had a little obsession with Chris Stapleton’s Midnight Train to Memphis recently.

Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - "Fishing in the Dark."

I'm learning the harmony part that's a 5th above the melody during the hook. So, I've been singing it in the car....a lot!

I love getting corralled by a song. Most recently it was John Gorka's cover of Bill Morrissey's "She's That Kind of Mystery"

The same thing happens with youtube videos, most recently the Disturbed Conan Show performance of Sounds of Silence.

Recently came across Warren Haynes playing Soulshine as an acoustic solo. I have been working on it ever since. Great song!
