I think there are three kinds of endings, not two:

fade out - where a phrase/measure/etc repeats over and over as the volume decreases

abrupt ending - where the song goes out with a bang, with or without resolution. I think this is more about how the volume goes to zero "instantly"


resolved ending - this is where a song resolves then "hangs" there briefly before going quiet.
