I disagree.

I do think that every song being 3-4 minutes long for radio is bad though, gimme some variety

I mean I agree, but it sounds like you've never tripped balls to Long Season and it shows

For me the cut-off tends to be 3.5 minutes. Some music like metal and jazz in particular breaks that rule due to all the cool riffing, but modern rock and pop really does take a song that could sit nice at two or three but instead stretch it to five. Infuriating, really.

I hate to call out "favorites". But here's a decent one:

OFF! - Red White and Black

The clip is a bit longer, but the official release song is 93 seconds

2-3 minutes is minimum, more than four and a half is too much

The perfect song is about 30-45 seconds. The best genre? Powerviolence

I can only think of one song that I like that's that short

I actually think around 5 minutes is the perfect song length for most songs. The 4-6 minute range is where most of my favourite songs lie in. Unless it's some quick hardcore punk or something, then 1 to 2 minutes fits.
