《History Repeating》是英國電子音樂組合Propellerheads於1998年1月26日發行的單曲，收錄在其首張專輯《Decksandrumsandrockandroll》中，並與爵士歌手Shirley Bassey合作演繹部分版本。作品以Big Beat電子樂為基底，融入放克節奏與復古爵士採樣，形成跨越時空的聽覺層次。
歌詞以後現代視角，通過"歷史重演"的重複副歌，揭示時尚潮流與媒體現象的循環本質，表層以舞曲節奏號召聽眾釋放束縛，深層則暗喻文化疊代的虛無性。歌曲存在多個混音版本，包括《Knee Length Mix》《Ankle Length Mix》等。

歌曲歌詞
The word is about
There's something evolving
Whatever may come
The world keeps revolving
They say the next big thing is here
That the revolution's near
But to me it seems quite clear
That it's all just a little bit
Of history repeating
The newspaper shouts
A new style is growing
But it don't know
If it's coming or going
There is fashion there is fad
Some is good some is bad
And the joke is rather sad
That it's all just a little bit
Of history repeating
And I've seen it before
And I'll see it again
Yes I've seen it before
Just little bits of history repeating
Some people don't dance
If they don't know who's singing
Why ask your head
It's your hips that are swinging
Life's for us to enjoy
Woman man girl and boy
Feel the pain feel the joy
Aside set the little bits
Of history repeating
Just little bits of history repeating
And I've seen it before
And I'll see it again
Yes I've seen it before
Just little bits of history repeating
