You know, even if I don't like new music (give me my walker and Geritol) I will give you this:

In the 70's, songs were about 4 minutes each. Now I think they're longer. How long is the average song?

depends on the type of music, pop music averages, 2:30 to 3:30.
i have found rock music goes from about 3:30 all the way upto 6mins and longer.
rap, tends to be 4 minutes.

Pink Floyd used to fill an entire album side with one song. That's half a CD for you young 'uns out there

Songfestiuval is edited to 2:00 or less, they managed to cut 34 seconds off the studio version of the winning song for the live performance, and she sings out of tone live... but not bad for a music producer to win that.

Very long songs:
Guns 'n Roses, November rain. how they can make it into a 6-minute radio version always makes me angry because the studio version is a good 8:57

Metallica, Mercyful fate. 11:11 for the studio version, 12:51 for a live performance

Average of what i have is around 3-4 minutes, but lots are over 4 minutes also
