I admit it, this is a flaw in myself, but I like music to come and tell me what it has to say and go away again in about 6 minutes. Even that is a lot longer than top 40, which tends to be more like 2-3 minutes. -Glenn UNQUOTE. Lot's of classical music consists of short pieces, shorter than the average rock video. Lots of classical music that takes longer still consists of short pieces. Try a few. - Toby Robison (not Robinson!) allegra!eosp1!robison decvax!ittvax!eosp1!robison
