Does that happen to anyone? Once the song you like best off an album becomes a single you can't really listen to it anymore? It's annoying for me anyway lol

This is actually my life, I hate it when the best track gets released and it loses it's appeal because everyone knows it.

I'm usually the opposite...I get into new acts through their singles.

Yes, this happens with me a lot, I got Rated R a couple days after it came out, and I instantly loved Rude Boy, but now if it comes on I just skip it, because I'm bored of it :(

Yup. But also I often find that I can like a song from a while ago and then for some reason everyone suddenly likes it again, that irritates me. I just don't really enjoy liking a song then having every other bugar jump on the band wagon :L

Exactly the same, I had it as my ringtone on my phone when I first got the album, now I'm like hmm.. lol.

Te Amo still hasn't lost it's charm though, and I hope it doesn't now it's been released because I *****ing love that song :laugh:

It can go either way for me. If I really love an album track I want them to release it as a single. But then I hear it too much.

But I really love Alex Burkes All night long more now than I have on the album. Same with Telephone. Some songs are just more durable and can stand repeated play without annoyance.

Yeah definitely. I rarely discover new artists through hearing their singles on the radio or TV or whatever, so if I'm into someone and they have a huge smash, chances are I've heard it for months before it got huge and I'm sick of it by the time its released.

It depends. Sometimes I won't notice a track till it's a single. Other times it being a single makes me love the song more. And then there's yeah there's going off it completely.

Sometimes I get sick of things if I heard them ages before they were popular because I went through the phase of loving it; but I also hate when songs get released and become popular under a different form to the original; most recent example being David Guetta's Gettin' Over which I heard with just Chris Willis; now it has Fergie and LMFAO raping it and I don't like it anymore.
