Songs shouldn't be over four minutes long. Especially if they're repeating verses and choruses.

That was the issue with the later Killing Joke stuff. Everything was like 6-7 mins long and that's too much.

This may depend on what constitutes a song. Pink Floyd's 1970 piece, Atom Heart Mother, is over 23 minutes long but would you call it a 'song'?

Purple Rain by Prince. Over 8 minutes for a song he wrote as a bet that he could write a number 1 hit.

Telegraph Road by Dire Straits
Stairway to Heaven

"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the Earth all one's lifetime."
