Listening to semi 2 I noticed the Enty entry was amazingly short, and seeing as I have easy access to such data from compiling Spotify playlists for every contest since 2015, here's the top 10 11 shortest... and longest entries of the modern BJSC era! :magic:

 

If you've made the list then congratulations... I guess?

10:45 BT - Skylarking {Aelandor CXII}

 

there are 3 additional >10 minute songs; 'Mutter', 'Ascent (An Ending)' and 'Das Testaments Des Mabuse' ('Othan' shows up as being 10 minutes on Spotify too but was cut to 6 minutes for the contest)

'Mutter' not even being in the top 10 longest entries *_*

 

(of course the actual longest is still Sufjan Stevens' 'Impossible Soul' but that was before the time range included here)

Only two Rolloland songs in the top 10. I will have to do better than that.

Stand by for Rolloland to try entering the whole of Wagner's Ring Cycle, all fifteen hours of it :o

my BJSC41 song is also 13:05 long. I wonder what would be the overall stats for all contests. will anyone ever beat Impossible Soul oops

 

((BRÉ GET TO WORK we don't pay you to sit on yo ass))

Untouchable by Anathema is 11.47 long if you add parts 1 & 2 together. As I entered the whole song,I think it should be added to that top 10. That would take me ahead of Skall.

ah yes, Spotify separates it into two songs so that passed me by.

þema fyrir fljótavík :wub: :kink:

I'm all for more MC BOING exposure

I think the llama song would've been up there with the shortest pre-2015? I can't remember how long the link I sent was :')

Short and sweet :wub:

Oh don’t do this this just makes me tempted to beat the record for my 100th (wouldn’t quite beat Impossible Soul but would beat Flj C). And I know some people wouldn’t like that.

there are 3 additional >10 minute songs; 'Mutter', 'Ascent (An Ending)' and 'Das Testaments Des Mabuse' ('Othan' shows up as being 10 minutes on Spotify too but was cut to 6 minutes for the contest)

+ Sufjan's Majesty Snowbird, which just gets over the line at 10:01. But it looks like you're only counting from 2015.

Ooh. Now we have the definitive proof, can those countries with 2 or more entries over 10 minutes be banned forever please? :D

Complaining will only make my entries longer xx

bump to congratulate to Elëdan and Why So Sirius on breaking the records. :cheer: Here's the updated top/bottom 10s (again, only for 2015-present as it's based on my Spotify collation).

Rolloland with 4/10 here now too. *_*

I can get two more in that top 10 without knocking any of my own entries out.

I should probably send an unknown symphony by an underrated composer (in the Romantic or 20th Century period) to beat the longest "song" (piece) record. :P

Please don't x

 

Didn't realise that the Spotify version of the Tiptoe Giants was even shorter than the YouTube video :lol: in terms of the YouTube video Tiptoe Giants is slightly longer than 'The Llama Song' but the Spotify version may be the shortest ever BJSC entry.

Shortest

02:21 YONAKA - Bubblegum {Medhelnia C}

02:21 VAX and Sorana - Bubble Gum {St. Burbia CV}

Are these not in fact the same song
