When you get a new CD do you listen to it just once and put it away? I listen to it over and over again. This helps me to memorize the lyrics. I enjoy singing along with the songs of my favorite artists. One in particular that I have been listening to is The Long Way Home, by the Dixie Chicks. So many of the songs on this CD have become favorites. They words of the songs take on special meaning to me.

I am the same way. I will play a song (or cd) over and over and over and....Well you get the idea. My new favorite band ONE LESS REASON may have burn marks on it now from being played so much..I think everyone does it.unless of course the cd's crappy I hate when that happens!!

oh yes when I get a new Cd I have to listen to it many times before I put it away. In fact on the first time around I sometimes don't even like the new CD I have to play it a 2 or 3 times before I get used to it .
The I always find a favorite song and I have to hear that again and again , and I like to try to learn the words so I can sing it to myself to share the words with someone else. The last new CD I bought was gospel music , and there was this one song that just made me cry every time I listened to it . It is just so beautiful .

That's so weird that you mentioned Taking The Long Way by the Dixie Chicks because that is the CD I was thinking of as I read your discussion! My mom bought me that CD for Christmas and it quickly became one of my favorites. I listen to it all the time. In fact, I was just listening to it in the car yesterday. What's your favorite song on the album?

sure...I love music, and so do my daughters. I don't know what's wrong with my stereo system right now, but we love cds. I've played many of them over and over again!

I tend to keep repeating the cd over and over again when I first get it. I all but wear it out...lol Then I have my favorites that I play all the time too. I've been listening to Bog Seger lately. I love Turn the Page...

Oh great! Now I have the song running through my mind. Years ago I had an album by Bob Seger and my exhusband and his friend played it all day long. Now, I like Bob Seger, but to hear it over and over, day in and day out was a bit much! I accidentally lost the album. Now that many years have passed by, I am ready to get a new one.

of course i would play it the whole day. yes the whole day. i wouldn't buy an expensive item if i dont really mean of buying and wantign them.
when i bought my very first CD before, i played it everyday, as in over and over again. there was a time that we traveled to somewhere for like over and hour and i put the CD on. the driver who doesnt like the genre of my music gets to like them after all i played it over and over again while hes driving. hehe..

I haven't bought a new cd in a long time. But I have been known to play it over and over. When I was younger I liked the Bay City Rollers and I listened to their songs over and over until my mother almost went insane.lol. Sometimes now I cheat and find the lyrics online.

Oh all of us here, hubby, the girls and me will play our CDs day and night. All of us rather liten to music than watch TV or anything else. I play mine until I am sick of it then I switch to something else for a while. Right now I am back to Bonnie Raitt, Luck of the Draw. I am on day three listening to that one.

I don't do that now, but used to. Mainly in my teens & twenties. I would listen to a new song(record in those days) & play it over & over. I would sing along with it, very loudly if no one was home.
I would sit in my bedroom, with the record player going full volume, & sing, sing & song.
So you go for it.. sing along with those songs & feel free....

I usually don't get a cd unless I am planning on listening to it a bunch. So I listen to it over and over. Sometimes the first time I hear a song I don't care for it but it grows on me, and other times I love the song the first time I hear it. But I listen to it over and over to learn the lyrics also. The one I am listening to now is Tim Mcgraw his new cd. It has a remake of "Suspicions" on it I love and another song called "The River and Me".
I have heard the Dixie Chicks "the long way home" is a good cd. I may look into purchasing that if I ever get some extra money.

I play it and play it and play it- I learn the words to the other songs that I don’t know – and then I get so SICK of it- I put it away- sometimes I don’t listen again for a month- Gretchen Wilson’s Redneck woman cd—I still can’t stand to listen to it- My daughter played it out!

oh I am a music addicted..so whenever I buy a new Cd I took my time to familiarise with the music and the songs..I generally listen to it in my car because I spend much time driving and so this is the first place where I listen to all new music and then I listen to it again if I liked it or I put it aside and listen to it after a bit..in order to educate my ears to the new songs and kind of music. Sometimes you need time to appreciate new songs..other times they become part of your life and soul at once..and as you said, I like singing ..of course under my breath!!! or I sing aloud when I am alone..that it is at home, or while having a shower or when driving..it is so powerful singing aloud your favourite song when you are stuck in a traffic jam..time passes by and you avoid getting destroyed by all that awful traffic!!!
