It just came to me. Ian and John. 2 Deaf guys giving advice on a music mix. Ain't we smart.

Having songs a certain length varies in history.

Many gatherings had a time limit.

At a dance every tune had to be dancible, and if it was fast it couldn't be too long, the square dancers got dizzy going round so why where they square?

Anyways DJ's loved the long songs, it was same pay less talk.
And the commercials dictated length.

Taste. It has to sort of come close. Don't let it get too hairy, and make me want to hear it again and again...right?
