Strictly speaking, if you feel "compelled" to play the song, it's "compulsive," and if you constantly think about the song, or "play it in your mind," that's "obsessive." Not to worry though. The behavior you're referring to is common among music lovers, and harmless. It's not a sign of pathology, unless it's part of a broader and more troublesome pattern of obsessive-compulsive behaviors.

I don't think so, to me it sounds more like manic behavior, mild bi-polar disorder.
