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?
