Addicted to Beethoven, Bon Jovi and Mario Brothers

After downloading that jazz version of the Super Mario Brothers theme, hearing Bon Jovi on the radio and trying to learn Fur Elise, ive become addicted to all 3. For some reason i feel really good being hooked on 4 completley un-related types of music.

What are some other musical addictions some folks have had?

Whoooaaa oh..livin on a prayer...

I constantly listen to music that doesn't seem to go together. I've got Napalm Death next to Kenneth Nash (Carribean Jazz), I've got James Brown next to The Butthole Surfers, I've got Oingo Boingo next to Opeth... and so on and so forth.

I keep all my music in iTunes set on random. At this moment, it's jumping from Aphex Twin to The Cranberries to Depeche Mode to System of a Down to Chroma Key to The Police to ProjeKct One to Eric Clapton to Beethoven...

there are some commercials that i'm hooked on right now... i don't know if all of these are local, but they're pretty low budget...

Cash1 (call 1-888-88 cash 1, payday today with caaaaash one!) and it has this little dancing creature in the corner of the screen. super wierd.

Floor Dimensions.... it's this bad kenny G style jazz thing with this terrible singer... lyrics:
stop stressing
enjoy yourself
remember that you're not alone
Floor Dimensions
Expect (<---really high note) moooooooore

or, if you go to the movies at any Loew's Cinema, there's this quick little thing right before the movie starts. Lyrics:
thank you for coming
to loews cinema
en-joy-the-show!
*whooooosh*

i'm losing my mind with jingles.

Sorry to bump this thread but without thinking about how ridiculous a combination it is, today, to work, I brought Weezer's Blue album and Death's Scream Bloody Gore. insane.
