Or, you could consider that all these things are simply just common day events, and they only strike you as unusual and coincidental because you are trying to find odd things. Every day we are exposed to a variety of small things, that we aren't usually aware of how they adhere to our minds until they are presented again. While the odds are against the finding of a song called Coitus Interuptus at any given time are quite rare, the chances that you will find a MP3 that restates a phrase or idea that you have been presented within a few days is quite high.
Here's another explanation. On September 11th of this year, the 3 digit lotto in NY was 9-1-1. It is true that the odds of this given event occuring is very slim, but that is besides the point. Every day, all sorts of numbers, statistics, and other information is created, and the odds are very likely that on September 11th, at least one of these sources would somehow produce the numbers 9-1-1. Whatever that source was, in this case, the 3 digit lotto, would be the one that would get all the media attention as the freaky coincidence.
Or something like that, hell, what do I know... damn I could use a nice sandwich right about now.
