Repetitive song

Okay kiddo, have you ever heard a song that just keeps playing over and over again? That's called a repetitive song! It's like when you eat your favorite food and want to keep having more and more of it. These songs have the same words or melody repeated a lot of times.

The reason why these songs are so popular is that they are easy to remember and sing along to. It's kind of like when you learn how to count numbers or say the alphabet. Repetition help us remember things better.

Just like how you might watch your favorite TV show or movie over and over again, people like to listen to repetitive songs because it makes them feel happy and comfortable. It's like having a good friend that you love to spend time with.

Some people might not like repetitive songs because they can get boring after a while. But for others, it's a great way to relax and feel good. So, whether you love them or not, repetitive songs are all around us and we might even find ourselves humming them all day long!
