"Repetition" is a ballad by the electronic band Information Society, released in 1989 as the third single from the band's self-titled album, Information Society. Unlike the band's two prior singles, which got into the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100, "Repetition" only peaked at #76.[1]

The music video, shot in black and white, shows the band between building ruins and old things, that complete the sad line of the lyrics.[2]
