Good morning Jung, Your last paragraph.
Despite all the data suggesting shorter songs are better, Stairway to Heaven, and Hey Jude are 8:03 and 7:06 mins long respectively. Yesterday and Sounds of Silence are 2:06 and 3:06 respectively, so there is no firm formulaic rule either it seems.
I sort of agree with some of the data you posted. Then I think that’s why they came up with FM radio. FM was created to play album tracks not hit 45. Music was changing. Songs were written with concepts. From protest songs to rock operas to concept albums. There were a lot of issues going on from Vietnam to Free Love to Race Issues. Song writing became intense and song times became longer. So there is really no correct answer on the length of a song.
From In A Gadda Da Vida to Her Majesty A Pretty Nice Girl. If a song is good then who cares how long or short it is. Now one last thing. I can’t stand when they play a song that is long and play the shorten version. That get’s my goat…
But besides that Jung have a good day my friend.
Joe
