Repetitive Song Lyrics:
"I'm So Glad"
The Repetitive Lyrics: I'm so glad, I'm so glad, I'm glad, I'm glad, I'm glad
Why They're Repetitive: Not that it's a bad song (I actually prefer Deep Purple's version to the Cream version), but it's undeniably repetitive.
Submitted by: Joe Bloggs
| "Child in Time"
The Repetitive Lyrics: Sweet child in time
You'll see the light Why They're Repetitive: Well, the dude says the entire verse, like, 5 times! It's got slightly different wording, but it's still in the repetitive category in my opinion.

Nonsensical Song Lyrics:
"Black Night"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: Black night is not right
I don't feel so bright, I don't care to sit tight. Maybe I'll find on the way down the line that I'm free, free to be me Why They're Nonsensical: Not much of a focus in the line of images here. In fact, the band were pressed into writing a plausible single, cause although they had done a killer of an album ('In Rock') there was nothing that would catch instant airplay. So they went to the studio in a huff, Ritchie and Roger came up with the backing track - and then (as Roger Glover tells the story) the band would try to come up with the kind of banal lyrics that would befit the single - and rhyme with 'black night'.. 'I don't feel too bright' somebody muttered - right, in it goes!

"Space Truckin'" Length: 20:02
After thirty-six years, 'Made In Japan' is still the yardstick for live hard rock/heavy metal albums. The first four and a half minutes of this track stomp all over the studio version... and then it devolves into a quarter- hour of incoherent instrumental noodling. You have to be pretty stoned to listen to this one all the way through; kinda makes me wonder where their heads were at when they performed it.
