count 'learn,' 'hurt,' 'dirt,' and 'turn.' they have the same function as 'work.'  

You mean words that rhyme in a song. Someone call the lyric police. 

wait they are already here.

[Chorus - Rihanna:]
Work, work, work, work, work, work
He say me have to
Work, work, work, work, work, work!

Meh nuh cyar if him
Hurt, hurt, hurt, hurt, hurting

are you blind or just don't know what repetition is?

[Manul 7,377]

Pointless stan "wars" that involve nothing more than bitterness behind a screen/keyboard and ~fans that come rushing readily to present Gaga examples in a poor way intended to reduce their value are two things that we can most definitely do without when LG5 era starts and onwards.

I understand when someone's reaching to the stars. Work remains bothered. #1 for how many weeks... I know what repetition there's many examples of it in the thread...hell the thread itself, but in case you didn't know choruses in songs are usually repeated a couple of times. No matter how many times you people try to rip Work to shreds and even thought it was a flop. It will remain a smash.

15 hurt

24 turn

6 dirt

"Ale" used an additional 49 times because I counted the 2x and 6x that the word find feature didn't count. 

"Ale" is still just as repetitive against the words you gave me.

your pal wasn't talking about repetition in terms of song structure, they were talking about repetition in general: the same words that occur repeatedly, that is. that's why i said that those words have the same function as work, while gagz only uses the word 'alejandro' repeatedly. 

Spoiler

anyway, i had a class in corpus linguistics that focused on pop songs in particular, so don't go there and turn this into something personal.
