    its either the words or the melody that is making you happy, you bond with the song, that's what they mean when they say a song "speaks to you" and why music is good for your soul =)

    I wouldn't term the consistent enjoyment of a song as "addiction". You don't feel anything negative while NOT listening to it, do you?

    It just happens that your musical preferences make some things more enjoyable and over longer periods of time before diminishing.

    It's subliminal messages hidden in the song
