This thread's been driving me nuts from the gitgo. There are so many elements and now I feel that all of you have brought up excellent reasons. Like Mario, I'm not really sure I want to know what, although all the factors mentioned have brought me to various songs...But you know what I really find curious?

I can listen to a song for years with never a thought. Its just a song like many others. Then one day it hits me...and jumps right to the top of my list. Never gave it a thought before, just another tune...and it may or may not have included all the items that normally attract me. But one day it goes from "Uh,huh" to "Holy Shit!! What a GREAT song!!!!"

Can someone explain this or am I just the crazed SOB you all know? Does this happen to you?
