When you first hear a song, your initial impression can be strong , but does it accurately reflect the song's quality? Some tracks take multiple listens to fully appreciate, while others make an immediate impact. How many times do you personnally need to listen to a song before feeling confident in ranking or rating it?

Good question. I think it differs depending on the song but generally I would say at least 5-6 times. It's not often that I love a song on first hearing it, even my absolute faves will have taken a while to grow on me.

Ideally twice or more.

Probably 4 times.
