To better aid concentration, being someone with concentration problems, I find that listening to songs you already know to an unhealthy level helps. Songs you know every beat to. Things your brain already knows and has nothing left to learn about it.

That's interesting, I tend to do the exact opposite. If I know a song too well, I tend to anticipate what's coming next and to think about all of the aspects of the song much like I would think about what's coming next in a movie if I had already seen it. However, if I'm listening to a song I've never heard before it's easier for me to pretend it's not there. I'm not sure why?
