One of my daughter’s favorite songs is 32-seconds long.
It’s called “I Like Short Songs” and it’s by the Dead Kennedys and it’s on their album Give Me Convenience or Give Me Death, recorded in 1979. She laughed really hard when she first heard it and has loved it ever since.
Short punk songs have been around for a long time.
Well yes, that’s not really what I’m talking about here. I play old HC albums around the house all the time, though they don’t really like screaming vocals (perhaps that’ll change with puberty…). It’s more the zeitgeist of just hearing 20-second snippets of songs and skipping around that’s problematic to me. It fosters an ADD mindset for everyone, not just kids.
Mine do too, most of the time. I’m trying to make a point about what kind of user behavior spotify UI (and similar apps) encourage and that it’s not a good thing, for kids or adults or for music in general.

I guess that’s not a thing my kid does. She listens to songs in their entirety.
