That's quite possible, in fact even probable...
But even good songs get boring after a while. Like watching a comedian on 2 different shows tell the same joke. It's still funny, but there that little bit of an "ugh" factor. At least for me. Some people can listen to Jim Gaffigan talk about Hot Pockets over and over again. I can't. I know he's going to sing "Hot Pockets" in some high pitched voice, and when I know it's coming, it loses it's punch (I do love Jim Gaffigan by the way; the Hot Pocket stuff just got old). Music is a little different of course, I can obviously listen to a song more than once; otherwise I would have to be on a never ending search for new music, or I would just have to stop listening to music all together. But that doesn't mean it can't get old eventually, especially when you are the one playing it. But when you improvise, as already noted, it's never the same thing twice. You can't get bored with something if you only see or hear it once in your life and never again.
