[Serious] What song can you constantly listen to and still get an emotional response similar to the first time it had that same emotion?

Jimmy Wayne - Do You Believe Me Now

When that song came out I had just ended a long distance relationship with a girl back home. I'm really not the jealous type, at all. It's just not in me. However, I went home on leave and could see there was something happening between her and an old buddy of mine. So I asked her about it and right off the bat she got defensive about it. The whole "we're just friends" and "there's no way he would do that to you." Oh, and my favorite, "were like brother and sister, it would just be weird." I told her I wasn't accusing them of anything. You know, he's there and I'm not, so we could just skip the cheating part, but she maintained that there was nothing there.

Fast forward a couple of months. She'd text me a few times a day; that's fine, she's probably busy. She could never answer her phone though; that's fine, cell service is pretty bad back home. Then one day my Brother calls me while I'm on post and I answer just in time to hear her yell, "Goddamn it, I said I'd call him!" As soon as his call cut out, she was calling me. Now she's going into this long drawn out explanation about how there was a party, and they were all too drunk to drive, and there weren't enough places to sleep, and my brother had passed out on the only bed with the only other girl there, so she HAD to sleep on the couch with, you guessed it, my old buddy; and they MIGHT have kissed. I didn't yell at her. I wasn't even mad, it had just sucked all the energy out me. I couldn't recall a time that I had felt such disappointment. So I just asked her if there wasn't a floor to sleep on and she started crying. I calmed her down and told her it was okay, because we weren't together anymore. She started speaking gibberish, so I told her to have a nice life and I went back to work. On my way home, that song came on and it sucked the energy right out of me again. I mean, I couldn't even cry about it. It's just the weirdest thing to feel. Less than six months later she was pregnant and married, in that order.

Every time that song comes on, I'm reminded of them and I get that same initial feeling, but now I sing along.

Tl;dr: Art imitated life, or vice versa.
