Maybe it’s an interlude 

Fair Point, but 1 minute 57 seconds is a bit long for an interlude. If it turns out to be an actual song then more time should have been spent on it, at least make it 2 minutes +

i don’t care about albums runtimes at all… the track lenghts seem completely normal to me, why are people having meltdowns over this? 

Maybe because it could be like 4+ years before she releases another album. But yeah, the majority of these songs are the standard pop song length for the past like 30 years. Must be a slow news day for them.

I love this new era of short songs. I wish Madonna released shortened versions of her older masterpieces like Ray of Light too...

I am a hardcore ADHD person who likes to make vibey playlists of like 50+ songs, long ass songs always get skipped halfway through lol...

Enough with this short ass song BS. I don’t want songs to get past 5min like they used to, but a track below 2 min is just lazy and 95% of the time it’s not enough for the track to build up. All of Lorde’s songs this era, the moment I start liking where they are going, end. 

just listen to Something Beautiful, most songs are long on there.

you're part of the problem. pick a lane already!  if all songs ever made were 3:30 we would all be so bored.

thank god.

I mean I’m here for short albums with 11 tracks if they’re good from start to finish. There are a lot of great albums that are this length and makes a better listen most times.

You have been radicalized by TikTok, I fear 

 

3 minutes is the usual for a pop song, one of them could be an interlude and the other one I agree it’s a short one (2min and something) 

just listen twice

I pick the song that finds a way to build up and explode but knows when to end!

ya’ll took my post WAY too seriously, made me laugh and start my day in the right foot. honestly length isn’t the definitive factor for a song. But it is frecuente that short songs don’t get enough time to build, and songs that are too long 4+ minutes risk dragging on. Sorry if that’s such an outrageous take for some of y’all.
