Confession's good for the soul, my friends.

I thought of doing this as a poll, but I'm worried that the text length won't be enough to get me the information I crave, so if you'd just be so kind as to answer my nosy question in the comments, I'd be much obliged.

The thing that's got me thinking about this is that lately I've been listening obsessively to this one song on repeat, so much that I seem to have broken it, twice, and have had to redownload it. Twice. (No idea how this could possibly have happened, btw.) It's a total guilty pleasure, it's like nothing else I like or listen to, and I'm a little embarrassed to admit that I love it, but I really really do, I can't get enough, and I don't care whether you like it or not, will accept with equanimity your opinion that as songs go it's seriously unacceptable, but I kind of want to share it anyway:

Candyman by Christina Aguilera, fun, raunchy, retro, hooky, and completely irresistible.

So what's your current favorite, one-stop-got-me-hot song? And why do you like it? Sharing the song itself is totally optional, because what I really want here is to know that I'm not obsessing alone.

Are you kidding me? That's pretty much the only way I listen to music. I was on a serious Rick Astley kick earlier this year - I watched the same live clip of "Never Gonna Give You Up" on YouTube practically all day long. Then someone kindly sent me an MP3 of the 1987 version, and I looped that endlessly. For weeks, seriously. Then I branched out and added in a few other live Rick Astley clips until I got sidetracked by David Gray's "You're The World To Me" and listened to *that* on loop for weeks. I have a whole iTunes library full of stuff that I only listen to in loops.

I'd like to think this doesn't make me crazy. I just get stuck sometimes, and only one thing will do when I get stuck like that. I should upload some of the stuff I've been stuck on this spring alone - it's the most bizarre mix of music possible.

Oh, I'd love to see some of your songs! And I can relate to the way you listen; I do that as well. It has been known to irritate the shit out of innocent bystanders, coworkers and people trapped in cars with me and the like. Not in recent years, though -- the ipod is truly a miraculous invention.
