How I listen to music

Sonically, I'm not about variety. I pick two or three songs. And I play them, essentially exclusively, for weeks at a time. Generally speaking, at any one time, there are only a few songs playing on my speakers and in my head. Over and over and over.

To make it onto my playlist, a song can be of essentially any genre (Hip Hop, Pop, Musicals, Dance, Folk, Rock), but it must (MUST!) be able compel me to either:

a) Move to it.
or
b) Sing along with it.

Currently, I'm listening to:
1. Fix You by Coldplay
2. These Words by Natasha Bedingfield
3. Somewhere Only We Know by Keane

One can only imagine the influence that one's auditory environment exerts upon one's state of mind. Maybe I should guard my current playlist more carefully, so my enemies don't gain some sort of psychological advantage.
