Just walking round on my lunch break IPOD absolutly blasting and joy in repetition came on off of my playlist and i stopped to listen to the song. Amazing x

cool

I love the ONA - "Joy In Repetition".

In fact it's been on repeat, the last two days. Noisy neighbors getting some Prince "therapy".

It's like that & that's the way it is...

Defintely at the top of the list!!

Felt like this song never got the props it deserved because it was on an unpopular album. SUCH a good track

GENUIS

An example of how a song without that much of a melody, no real hook, no real change, etc can still be genius simply because it says something interesting & sounds cool.

Joy in repetition is soo very beautiful !!! i loove the ending...it almost sounds like "joy" can be her name..that she becomes the joy..he pleads..why dont you love me??? come on and love me...and you here Joy over and over..she is up on the mic saying the two words over and over...there is Joy..and she is in repetition ,,,

I have this guitar solo on repeat over and over and over untill i cant take no
more...

The song is so nuanced and subtle.

Just think if it was on SOTT like it was supposed to be. It is a classic now but it would have been legendary if was placed on the Prince all-time masterpiece.

This has actually been my main song of the last week or so. I never got into it before now, but I really enjoy the story telling aspect of it.

it took me about 4 years to figure out what those 2 words were. Was sitting in front of my tall speakers, blazed and zoning out to this song and I swear, I saw God

I love the story it tells. I can see him in the smoke- filled club. The girl on stage at the mic looking out of place among among a bunch of pimps and thugs..." She didn't seem to care."...Beautiful song.

...And, there's humor!, " My name is Andre Crabtree the III. I got more holes (hoes) than a golf course!"

Amazing song. Have you heard the alternate intro with the sparse heavily reverbed drums instead of the 'lovesexy' - I W Crabtree III. I prefer it, but the copy I have is awful
