I have asked this question on Facebook I don't know how many times this year.
Everybody has a favorite song or notation that they enjoy. Whether it's a drumbeat, an introduction, a lyrical wave or just a song as a whole.
Writing this on Don Henley's birthday is a prviliage. As an adolescent in the early 2000's, I used to play his greatest hits album endlessly on my "Walkman". The CD ones, you all remember. Before Spotify premium, every chance I could listen at lunch, on the bus, or during quiet work time, that CD played relatively often for the entire duration of high school. The favorite tracks would change and every once and a while, I'd swap out my Don Henley album for well, more Eagles work.
Along the way, I kept collecting music and repeating it.
Lately, my absolute favorite thing is to play Africa by Toto on repeat or on a calm work morning. Recently older drum related tunes of the South by digging up Desi Arnaz music (before and after his role as Ricky Ricardo in "I love Lucy") and specific riffs really catch my ear and mind.
So, what is your go-too tune? What is something you find yourself specifically going back too or playing repetitively? What kind of unsaid feeling of euphoria do you collect from that?
