    6+ minute songs are typically 3:30 songs that are 2:30 too long…

    exactly! and anything over 10 minutes, well I think the singer/band owes me money or something for wasting my time.

    The answer to this question (and thank you for asking) is the same as the answer to the riddle “What does a 70-year-old woman wear on a blind date?”

    Depends.

    What about Lynyrd Skynyrd’s freebird or CCR’s I Heard It Through The Grapevine? Those two are dedinitely “musical genius you stupid word-needing heathen”.

    And what’s wrong with a little masturbation? 😉

    wilhelm,
    i don’t think i’ve ever actually listened to all of Freebird or any of it for that matter. Ditto for CCR’s heard it through the grapevine.

    however, i am all for the practice of self love, just not RIGHT IN MY EAR when you’re supposed to be singing.

    I will listen to any Prince song, no matter how long.

    because you’re a dirty girl!

    What about 6+ minute instrumentals?

    And, you’re not the musical genius in this family. I am.

    okay, got it, no self love in the ear! and you really should try freebird and grapevine.

  10. jodi 17.May.06 at 4:45 pm

    freebird? really? because that sounds almost like a joke.

    So I suppose you’ll just have to tell KTO to queue up some Del Amitri songs for the audible grapefruit sorbet to cleanse the musical palate.

    Yes, Green Day should have pared their song back a bit, but sometimes you just gotta get it all out. Music shouldn’t be for the listener, it should be for the artist.

    jodi – go down to the convenience store, buy a zippo, go back home, crank up freebird and when it’s over, lift your arm, flick the bic (okay, zippo) and yell freeeeeeeebiiiiiiiird

    Better yet, catch a cricket for $1.49 (by Gillette!)
