Of course a big finale is always a classic choice. It's what people are used to hearing and that's what I too often prefer. Of course depending on the song and it's genre. Often songs that just fade away repeating the chorus irritate me so much. Especially if the song is fast or grand or something else than just a ballad or a lullaby. :)
But that's what a person living in the culture where I've lived would most probably say. Same as the thing in pictures: are positive things going from lower left corner to upper right corner and negative things going from right to left? Or the other way round if you do not read from left to right or haven't been brought up in a culture that says that all good things come from above. I simplified things a bit but I ques you know what I'm talking about.
