Question of the Day

Suggested by Shaker Gingerkid as the bookend to this one from last Thursday: Of what song do you never tire, no matter how many times you hear it?

For me, it's any Smiths/Morrissey song. I've written on more than one occasion that I listen to the albums over and over and over again without ever remotely tiring of them, and my friends laugh at me and marvel at the astonishing but apparent fact that I am inexplicably not sick of songs I've heard thousands of times. I can't explain it. The songs are now as familiar, as much a part of me, as my own thoughts. I've been told I sing them in my sleep.

For my non-Moz answer, I will say Nina Simone singing "Sinnerman." I could listen to that on a loop all day long and never tire of it.
