History Main / IncessantChorus

* From an old ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' short:

* Used as a running gag in an episode of ''Series/MuppetsTonight''. The characters keep mentioning Istanbul and Constantinople as though they were two different places, and every time they do, a band of rats dressed up as Turks pop up from nowhere to sing the penultimate verse of "Istanbul (Not Constantinople)".
** Another episode had a chorus of Whatnots pop up to sing a variation of "Whip It Good"

* In the musical ''WonderfulTown'', Ruth wants to interview a group of Brazilian sailors, but they want her to teach them how to do the Conga first. She shows them how, and then starts rattling off her questions (in song), but is interrupted every fourth line by their shouts of "Conga!" and increasingly wild singing and dancing. She tries to get them to stop and listen to her, but is in the end literally carried away by the CrowdSong.

* ''Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail'': "Bravely bold Sir Robin/ Rode forth from Camelot..."

* From Music/TomLehrer's song "[[SouthOfTheBorder In Old Mexico]]":

And they would not shut up until they were paid''

* The town gossips in ''TheMusicMan'': "[=PickalittletalkalittlepickalittletalkalittleCHICKCHICKCHICK...=]"

* A possibly accidental example in ''JekyllAndHyde'' with the five times "Facade" is sung by the chorus. Even more egregious by the fact that the song is meant to hammer home the very concept of the play that "If we're not one, but two, are we evil or good? Do we walk the fine line that we'd cross if we could? Are we waiting to break through the façade?"

* ''Fanfic/{{Those Lacking Spines}}'' gives us Jeffiroth's choir. Every time someone says his name, they will inevitably sing "JEFFIROTH!" in a manner similar to that of the Creator/NobuoUematsu piece from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'' known as "One-Winged Angel," which was notable for the chorus shouting "Sephiroth!" multiple times as part of the lyrics.
** Even after Jeffiroth is defeated, the choir still sings it at his name's mention.

** Similarly the chorus of "Hooray for Captain Spaulding" in ''AnimalCrackers'' repeatedly interrupts Groucho's attempts to speak in one scene. [[HeyThatsMyLine In the end he decides to interrupt himself before they get a chance]].
* The brass band in the inspection scene of ''TheDirtyDozen'', who happily burst into their piece whenever the impatient colonel comes out of his office, to his increasing annoyance.

* ''FatherTed'' once featured a disco where the DJ for the night has forgotten his records, leaving him with just "Ghost Town" by Music/TheSpecials, so he can only play that tune over and over, even in lieu of the national anthem.

* [[SoulEater Excalibur]].

* The Buddy Bears from ''GarfieldAndFriends''.

* "A Spark Inside Us", from ''ThePrincessAndTheGoblin''. It's a song about singing, but it helps that singing is a highly effective weapon.
* The final scenes of ''TheFlintstones'' episode "The Hot Piano" involve Barney and a troupe of policemen who keep singing "Happy Anniversary" to Fred and Wilma, much to Fred's annoyance.

* Used as a running gag in an episode of ''MuppetsTonight''.

* The sheep in ''AnimalFarm''. "Four legs good, two legs bad!"

* The Vikings from the [[Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus Spam sketch]]. "Lovely Spam, wonderful Spaaaaam..." "Bloody Vikings!"

* GilbertAndSullivan have a few examples:
** The bridesmaids in ''{{Ruddigore}}'' keep on bursting into their chorus ("Hail the Bridegroom--hail the Bride!") until Robin angrily orders them to leave.

-->And so do his sisters and his cousins and his aunts ...

--> "Siiiiiilence in cooooooooooooooooooourt!" *banging gavel*

-->"We love you, Conrad, oh yes, we do\\

Oh Conrad, we love you!"

* [[WesternAnimation/SouthPark Sexual Harassment... Pan-daaa!]]

** In ''TrialByJury'' the jury and gallery continuously interrupt the judge.

* The bridesmaids' chorus in ''Theatre/{{Ruddigore}}'' (GilbertAndSullivan) fits this trope in spades. Whenever any of the other characters suggest that a marriage might be made, the bridesmaids pop up to sing "Hail the bridegroom, hail the bride!"

** Done also in the "Cheese Shop" sketch, where there's a Greek band playing a song in the background, until Cleese turns around and screams "WILL YOU SHUT THAT BLOODY DANCING UP?!"

* ''FatherTed'' once featured a disco where the DJ for the night has forgotten his records, leaving him with just "Ghost Town" by TheSpecials, so he can only play that tune over and over, even in lieu of the national anthem.
