Scabby Douglas	Repeating the first verse at the end (142* d)	RE: Repeating the first verse at the end	10 Mar 14
I've often come across this practice in the context of a singaround, for well-known songs without a chorus. When the first (or any) verse is repeated, there's a tacit understanding and encouragement from the singer to the rest of the company that they can join in. It's almost like saying "I'm sorry there's no chorus that you were able to join in, but here's the first verse instead. Please feel free to sing along."
