Me with my own music 😭😭
You’ve gotta make your own kind of music.
Gotta learn all the words perfectly
And then there is that song that is just a never ending stream of dopamine. 50 times, 100 times, doesn’t matter, it just goes on
Yeah, A Little Piece of Heaven by Avenged Sevenfold gave me that sonic rush today, but this will be the first time I can say I am definitely not going to listen to this one on repeat.
Why? Didn’t you always know that his little crime would be cold? That’s why he bought a heater for… Well, you know.
I fucking love that song so much. That whole album is my favorite of theirs.
It is. So good. I haven’t stopped analyzing it since I heard it yesterday. My friend showed it to me when I was in high school, but it’s been a long while since I’ve even thought about it.
Obviously, the actual musical composure of the song is gorgeous. I mean, really one of the most beautiful pieces I have heard in my lifetime. Infectious earworm, as well.
The lyricism is so well considered. I keep getting blown away by how the story of each verse changes the meaning of the chorus.
It really is an all time masterpiece… in the same vein as Eraserhead, or The Girls of Porn by Mr. Bungle. I don’t think I could listen to it all the time, though I may give it a listen through again to try to get it out of my head. Not a great song to have as an earworm; when could you sing it through the work day?
Seems like the opposite of ADHDInteresting. Thanks for the corrections.
It is, in fact, one of the most common ADHD symptoms. You don’t get dopamine from anywhere and then you find a song that you really like and pumps it out. So you listen to it over and over and over and over again, almost like self medication, to get the dopamine you don’t get elsewhere.
One of these centuries I need to go and start… thinking… about maybe possibly one day getting the information about someone I might eventually call for a diagnosis. Eventually… Lol
I keep seeing meme after meme and I just rationalize it like “ok, but I’m sure it’s not exclusive to ADHD” over and over and over and over lol as it stands I’ve been listening to “chasing daylight” from a game I play for like the last week…

Yeah, as someone with ADHD, seeing memes like this and then going in the comments to see OP call this “in fact, one of the most common symptoms of ADHD” makes me understand why professionals have issues with ADHD-centered content.
There’s way too many people in these comments going “uh oh, I’m in this meme” when its like “Nono, there’s plenty of reasons you could be doing this without ADHD being involved. Please talk to a professional to rule those out first.”
Despite common public perception, ADHD is a lot more than just the “Squirrel!” brain disorder it’s usually known as.
me every wednesday when hazbin hotel releases
This is my wife too lol, every time we’re in the car we’re playing them on repeat.
Then you hear it again a few weeks later and it’s annoying so you skip it. Er…is that just me?
My playlist, brought to you by the letters S, K, I and P
The End of the Dream in my case
If only there were a way to keep a song “fresh” forever, while also listen to it all the time!
I’d live in a state of eternal bliss. I’d take brain surgery for this. Or some kind of selective amnesia drug, which still allows to form the memory of the blissful state without the changes in the brain that we know as over-listening.
More realistically, maybe an AI that finds a song that is like that for me? Current algorithms really don’t help much at all, even for finding “ok” songs. It must be a complex, individual thing, based on unique events and emotions and their associations. Sometimes it appears to be a song I heard before, and it didn’t invoke anything back then, often decades ago, but the brain somehow built something around that impression that lit up like a Christmas tree when it played again.
I also wonder if I’ll keep finding songs like this, or if one of them will be the last.
Thankfully I’m more of album listener than song listener so this happens way less, but still the best I’ve found so far were:
- curated playlists, especially those promoting indie artists’ new releases (I wish had better source for those than YT)
- friend group swapping recommendations
