It's odd as there are many songs I class as works of art or classics but tire of them very quickly.
There are a few songs I tend to play over and over never tiring of them and this Is the main one.
The Verve Lucky Man Glastonbury 08 - YouTube
I was at Glastonbury In 2008 to watch this. I was there, getting down with the hip and groove kids. My husband sat at home with his pipe and slippers and get a better view than me from the TV coverage,
Do you have one or many?

That's a bit like modern jazz. Pretentious crap but no one likes to admit they think it is. Music for people that can't actually any instruments
Tangerine Dream - rubycon part 1 (part 1) - YouTube
Sad git that I am I even like tubular bells. Course it's all subjective innit.

I watched a percussionist do something similar a couple of years ago, Terje Isungset. He didn't really have any instruments - a Jew's Harp and some blocks of wood - but he sure knew how to play them.
Oh... Tangerine Dream... damn right, yes. And even Ommadawn if you bring Mike Oldfield into it. My word I like that album.
