How to Post the Same Song 20 Times Without Repeating Yourself

The three axes

Every post about a song varies along one of three things: which part of the song, what stage of making it, or whose voice is telling you about it. Four options on each axis is already twelve posts before you have repeated anything.

When a post feels stale, you have usually varied the edit and held the axis constant. Change the axis instead and the same song feels new to somebody who saw last week's.

By part of the song — six

The chorus hook. The transition into it. The most unusual production moment. The most quotable line. The bridge or the outro nobody reaches. And the intro, posted last, once people already know the song.

Each of these reaches a different person, because they fail differently — the production moment catches producers, the line catches people who never listen to lyrics.

By stage — seven

The original voice memo. The first loop. The demo vocal. Two versions of the chorus side by side. The mix before and after. The artwork being chosen. The moment it went live.

Process is the most reliable category because it works before the song is finished, which is where you spend most of your time. It is also the only content that cannot be made after release.

By voice — seven

You explaining one decision. You saying nothing while your hands play it. A one-line story about writing it. A question to the audience. Somebody else's reaction. A screenshot of a message. And a stranger using the sound.

The last three are the strongest and the only ones you cannot make alone, which is why the messages and replies you send are content production, not admin.

Nobody sees them all

A post reaches a single-digit percentage of the people who follow you, and almost none of the same people twice. The repetition you are worried about is visible only to you and to the four people who check your profile.

Space them across six to eight weeks, rotate the axis rather than the edit, and post the strongest one a second time a fortnight after release. That last one alone finds more people than most artists' entire campaign.

Frequently asked questions

How many times can I post about the same song?

Around twenty, without repeating yourself. Vary the axis rather than the edit: which part of the song, what stage of making it, or whose voice is telling you about it.

Will my followers get bored of one song?

Almost certainly not. A post reaches a single-digit percentage of your followers and rarely the same ones twice, so the repetition is visible mainly to you.

When should I repost my best clip?

About a fortnight after release. Nearly everyone who follows you missed it the first time, and that single repost usually finds more people than the rest of the campaign.
