If there's a song I like, maybe want to sing or play on guitar, I have a habit of running it on a loop for hours or days. Lately such songs make up an increasing number of "randomly suggested" tracks.

Popularity algos don't handle this kind of habit gracefully. Here's a graphic I made many years ago to explain this funneling effect.
