Pop: why those choruses get stuck in your head
A chorus on loop isn't an accident: a little peek behind the scenes.
Pop has a gift for crafting melodies you remember effortlessly. It's not magic, but real craft in writing and structure.
The recipe for a chorus that sticks
A simple phrase, repeated, with a small note variation: that's often what turns a forgettable verse into an unforgettable chorus.
That famous earworm comes from this controlled repetition. Once you spot the mechanics, you hear pop with a whole new ear.
