>pick one song and repeat it for the entire day

I also do this, one or a very short playlist of very similar stuff. Seems to help keep my mind locked into a particular state all day/work period. Currently long Daft Punk tracks are doing it for me.

I sort of do this, but I pick one CD. Usually it's Keith Jarrett but Bach works as well. Especially the harpsichord concertos.
or Keith Jarrett playing Shostakovich's Preludes and Fugues?
Oddly enough, I don't own that. I must have about 30 Jarrett CDs, and quite a lot of Shostakovich (all the symphonies and string quartets), so there's really no excuse ;-)
The Alive '97 album is perfect for that if you like Daft Punk.
Hey, way too good an album to listen to while coding :)
