quick Q: what's the part of a song called that repeats itself?

iLoveDivX · Feb 22, 2003

chorus, hook, or what? also, what are the rest of the song called...the stanzas, verses, what?

Chorus is the repeating part.

multiple phrases/lines usually = chorus

1 phrase/line usually = hook

rest = verses

poetry has stanzas tho

I hate songs that have a long chorus. They get really boring fast.

A passage where the music/lyrics temporarily change in melody, tone, or rhythm from the rest of the song. Usually before the last verse or chorus.
