A song is information. Our brains like new information, especially the sort which seems valuable. Music seems like valuable information because it taps into our social and linguistic brainy parts(why mysic even exists as a concept is a giant subject in itself), and gives it something “to work with”.
Once you have absorbed all that information, it’s no longer useful, like reading a book for the 5th time. Sometimes we like watching a movie or reading a book a few times because we can find new details that we didn’t see the first time, but once you know it all by heart and there’s nothing more to discover it’s rarely interesting to do it again.
