I have a weakness for melodic, hypnotic, repeated choruses at the end of songs. Could you mention songs I may have missed that fit this criteria? The chorus should last for at least minute. The Three I know and love...besides Hey Jude

Tommy James album version of Crimson and Clover. The la, la, la, la, la, la section goes on like Crimson and Clover...over and over.
The "Let The Sunshine In" chorus of Aquarius fits the parameters. I'm seeing a pattern. It seems all the endless chorus songs happened from the late 60s through the early 70's.

How did I go my life without hearing this song? Thank you, Paul. Yes, you bet it qualifies. What an uplifting song!

Oasis - All Around the World is a notorious example of this trope.

Yes, it fits the criteria. Hrychu posts the first example beyond 1973. I've never heard All Around the World...till now. I checked out the video and the album version. I prefer the album version...that said the video took six months to make...Eye Candy with a Wink.

The Strawbs : Lay a little light on me/Hero's theme last tracks from their Hero and Heroine LP from 1974 (an excellent millésime !)

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

Don't know if this counts with Dug singing over the outro, but the chorus of faith, hope, love is repeated over the last 3 and half minutes.

I don't often listen to Grand Funk Railroad, but when I do, I guess it's this one.
And whenever I think Grand Funk, I think Homer Simpson. |

You might enjoy this one. Admittedly, it doesn't have a repeated chorus at the end, but it does have a repeated refrain.

For those who are inspired with a sentimental hope for world peace and the future of humanity, here's Eve Graham, Lyn Paul and the New Seekers who want to buy the world a home and furnish it with love. Apparently, it was Richard Nixon's favourite song that he liked to listen to while he was bombing Cambodia. |
