How many times did Bill Murray relive the same day in GROUNDHOG DAY?

I'd always assumed that Bill Murray spent a few months at most reliving the same day in the 1993 comedy classic Groundhog Day. But it seems his ordeal was actually quite a bit worse than that!

Feeling lost and directionless in life? Here's a very 1980s pep talk by Will Powers. Will Powers was actually the brainchild of celebrity photographer Lynn Goldsmith, who provided the creepy robot voice via a Vocoder. Her collaborators on the song included Sting and an uncredited Carly Simon. Apparently Goldsmith makes a cameo here as the lady playing the video game.
