What do you call long, Larry?

I usually reckon under 3 minutes is short, and long starts somewhere between 4 and 4:30. I occasionally do a couple that are about 6 minutes, and usually get away without too much obvious unrest. But then I'll probably do a sub-two minute on to make up.

It makes nice change to an evening when you've got varying lengths of song, but I wouldn't want to listen for a couple of hours just to long songs.

WassaiL! V
