Hmm.... I can listen to the same song on repeat all day and not get tired of it, and I love the cheese sketch. But I couldn't get through "Why is the rum gone?" (didn't even try the next ones) :P It sounds like why my mind sounds like when I can't stop thinking on something and going round and around and around but not getting anywhere, until I can't stand it, plus lots of background people chiming in to add to the confusion! It's like a ride you can't get off. Aaaagghh!

Honestly, I find most music repetitive. Considering most songs have a chorus, there is repetition right there. The problem though isn't the chorus, it is that a lot of songs I hear tend to have two parts that are the same. The chorus, and the main part (which has different lyrics generally, but still the same music). Then there can be a solo, or a brief change-up of some sort before it goes back to normal. Sure, it isn't as repetitive as these example songs above, but it's still repetitive. Not that repetition is bad, I like many songs that are repetitive.


I think you might enjoy some Frank Zappa. Very inventive and constantly unexpected things happening in the music. Check out Billy the Mountain, a mock rock opera or the beginner friendly tune Peaches En Regalia.
Bob Dylan often writes long songs with no repeating words or chorus, or a chorus structure with different words each time round.
