This specific video has helped me buckle down and get shit done so many times. I’ve even made loops of songs I have copies of on my computer for this kind of thing. The repetition OH MY GOD it tickles my brain in just the right way so as to boost productivity. It’s great how that can cancel out the ADHD when I have deadlines looming.
Video game music does the same thing. Death by Glamour gets me in the ZONE.
The people who make YT Music and Spotify must have autism, because they too assume it’s normal to listen to the same handful of songs every day.
When I vent about this IRL people agree that it’s ridiculous, but then I go online and I see the opposite, complaints that the service recommended a new song or a song they didn’t like. They even took out the discovery button from YT Music.
272 times? Those are rookie numbers.
I practically only have one playlist. Some of the music on it was added in the last millennia.
The repetition really is key. Some of the music on my list have several versions, same song but different recordings, but it has to be the right version. Usually the first one I heard. Having insert streaming service replace “my” version with another is a jarring experience.
I guess, I have too many (new) songs in my playlist. Would I otherwise get in a programming tunnel easier?
Yes, I know, there is music for programming, but it is all new to me, hence too exciting and I get distracted. I have to test things.
I play these on repeat occasionally.

I see you. I get thrown off when my liked playlist is shuffled or songs go missing. The world is chaotic and I just want consistency.
Wasn’t expecting to see II from Sleep Token here. Fuck ya 🤟
Just playing a Collective Soul compilation on repeat does the same for me.
This is cool too, though.
