It depends on why you are listening to the song. It is not OCD if you are getting enjoyment out of it and you can control whether or not you want to stop listening to it. It only becomes something like OCD if you cannot control the fact that you have to listen to it over and over or if you have to listen to it for a set number of times each time that you listen to it.
I listen to songs I like over and over sometimes. Maybe it is because the song has a message that you like or it can simply be fun to sing the words. The psychology behind it can be a various number of things depending on the song. Like if you are sad but want to be in a happier mood and you listen to a song that makes you happy over and over, that is a normal way of de-stressing and coping.
The only time it should be of concern is when you cannot stop listening to a song even though you have other things to do. It is bad if something like this get in the way of you performing your daily activities.

I don´t think that listening to a song you like, over and over again is a compulsive disorder. It´s just that you like it and you want to enjoy it one more time. The problem is when you get bored of it. then you don´t want to listen to that song anymore.

Listening to a song over and over again is the norm for me, i wear a song out and then move onto the next one. I don't listen to them for years and years after.
Reasoning: No idea

The song I always listen to constantly is just so good that I have to listen to it.
