==Background==
Again and Again was first posted by '''Derek Coward''' on Youtube after recording it from the radio in 2013. Sometime after, Derek set the video to private. On October 17th, it was reuploaded by '''userdeletedfromplanet''', who said '''PrudentButterscotch''' had saved an MP3 of it.

On the 22nd of December, '''C.W. Schultz''' uploaded a short video about Again and Again where a key lead was raised: the censoring of the track. The fact that "ass" is muted instead of bleeped suggests that this song had a radio edit meaning it was attached to a label who wanted to promote it on the radio.

In November 2019, reddit user OrphanTwin shared the song on r/NameThatSong[2] and WatZatSong[3], which helped the search gain popularity among the lostwave community. According to a post by OrphanTwin, the original OP was in touch with the original DJ of the radio station from which he recorded the song, and the DJ doesn't remember the name of the track.[4]
