Song length

How long should a song on the radio be, and how long is too long? Do you have an ideal length that you like to listen to?

Answer #1

it seems like on the radio, since it’s the first time some people hear the song, it needs to be at least 3 minutes. otherwise people are gonna be like “…where’s the song? it’s over already?” but no, I don’t think there’s a limit to how long it should be. as long as it’s a good song (I still get annoyed when people cut off “Free Bird” on the radio because they think it’s too long)

Answer #2

3 minutes is about standard…when playing live 5 is pretty normal…but no time is important…the song itself is what matters…
