I've noticed that whenever I find a bit music particularly enjoyable on the first listen, my enjoyment at listening to it declines sharply within a couple days and will never again as high. I guess it's like the idea of ruining a song for yourself by playing it too many times in rapid succession, but with this I find that regardless of whether I play the track only once or on repeat for hours (I've tried), every listen on that day is equally enjoyable, but a night or two of sleep and it loses its magic. Perhaps this is actually a more general phenomenon—you often hear people wishing they could experience some song/show/book/film 'for the first time again'. Regardless, it seems to fall into a category of topics about memory I see discussed frequently online: maybe there's some book out there with a grand theory relating the enjoyability of music to the brain's constant search for novel things to pattern match on, and how boredom evolved to spur on everything that we do. It'd probably also incorporate spaced repetition and the role of sleep in learning—wasn't there recently an HN thread about unexpectedly good performance when coming back to a skill that's languished for some time, and how you can temporarily perform worse during nonstop practice?
