I've never worried about how long the song is.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Interestingly, songs used to be short, then they became longer, and now they're getting shorter.
Think back to the early rock n' roll records, and the average record length in the '50s - and well into the '60s - was two and a half minutes. It's very hard to put that much songwriting into two and a half minutes.
When you write a song, a song has longevity.
It doesn't take me long to write songs.
If a song is longer than three and a half minutes, it'll need something to keep you entertained.
When you hear the first five seconds to a song and you've pretty much heard the whole song, that's kind of a bummer.
I mean, Beatles songs were two and a half minutes long, and they're fantastic.
The difficult thing about a pop record is that you're given guidelines: it has to have 3 choruses, and then it must be between 3 minutes fifteen seconds and three minutes forty-five seconds.
History shows us that the songs - the myth, the experience and the emotion - live longer the less you explain.
I just realized how long it was since the last album, and where did the time go? You know?
