This scratches my musical itch

There are certain songs that I have to listen to again and again. I'm not sure why, but it's kind of like scratching an itch - you can't help yourself. "Place Your Bets" is like that. I can't get enough of it, and have to play it again as soon as it finishes.
A wonderful song!

Moody and unpredictable. I love this track. You might think I'm off my rocker but I can see Pearl Jam covering this song.
