I’ve been on several long roadtrips recently and noticed something interesting.
If you have XM/Siruis Radio and you go to the decade channels, 4-6 (40’s, 50’s, 60’s) you will notice that the average length of a song is only around 2 minutes.
(1948) Venus In Blue Jeans, Jimmy Clanton, 2:21 long
(1962) Johnny Angel, Shelley Fabares: 2:10 long
Then as we move on from the 70’s up to today, songs can reach up to 10 minutes with some righteous guitar rifts and self-serving solos.
(1971) Stairway to Heaven, Led Zepplin: 8:02 minutes long
(1977) Paradise by the Dashboard Lights, Meatloaf: 8:27 long
As usual, we as humans have made things way more complicated then needed!
Now I think they are mostly around 4 minutes long, which is more than enough since they are all made from robots anyway. Some things never change. But other things change by leaps and 6 minutes.
