wim 1,416 Posted July 9, 2014 I'm not sure there is a recipe for 'the perfect pop song' other than to start with the chorus and ensure plenty of repetition. How did that skit go on The D Generation? "The product name. What - the product name? Yes - the product name! Oh, the product name." Rinse and repeat. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keyse1 4,579 Posted July 9, 2014 The sweet spot for popular music seems to be between 3 to 4 minutes long. But Love Me Tender is shorter than 3 minutes. Is that a pop song or ballad 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shaky 1,725 Posted July 11, 2014 3 minutes is not long enough for stuff like this: Maps -Yeah Yeah Yeahs But I can balance it out with 1:42 of this: Spiderbait - Buy Me A Pony Total for two songs: about 6min 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
