Over the years, I've obsessively gotten interested in a particular band, composer, type of music, etc. Particularly with rock music, though, if I'm not careful I can get sick of the music I'm obsessing over, and then it's never the same again. In recent years I've even taken care not to give in to my desire to overdose on whatever music I'm into, so that the inevitable saturation point doesn't happen.
Example: I was once completely into the band Midnight Oil. I listened to them day and night, bought all their releases and B-sides, chased them down in concert, etc. Until one day I realized that I was sick of them. And even though I've listened to them since on occasion, it's just not the same.
Does this happen to anyone else?
