  • How lon is a song?

    In the 1960's, it was about 3 mins.

    Today, it's about 4 mins.

    And 'country' doesn't just seem longer, it is longer - and the 'music' is awful so, if anything, the tracks should be shortest - about 5 secs.

    Songs should Never have a time limit, because they're *supposed* to say something.
    As for the meaningless ones, I'd be all for a 0' 0" time ;)
