I usually give a song 45 seconds to a minute. There has been times when I know after 5 seconds that I'm not going to like it-lol


My Newest Song that ad grabbed my attention after 33 seconds is by Xsacpe-"To the Arms of the One who loves You"

Depends, usually the first few seconds. Seasons in the Sun I actually give the first few notes, then he starst singing...

I have to like the instrumental background INSTANTLY-lol

I can't say because there are some damn good songs that if I based it on the first minute or 30 seconds, I would have missed out on a good song. I have to really listen to a song. There are so many songs that may have a boring beginning or a not so good beginning but then it grabs your attention. Then, there are songs that may have a beginning that sounds like a slow song and then BOOM turn into a bumpin' jam.

Way back when it used to take me next to nothing to dig a song, nowadays, everything's more complicated and it depends....40 secs to 1 min.!

I agree!!
Some songs I can figure out a little quicker. ;)

It varies, but on the average about 20 seconds.

Every single song by the Isely Brothers I heard I turned of after 5 seconds-lol

I knew you would turn this into a I HATE ISLEY BROTHERS tirade.

"I was LIVING IN THE LIFE"...A damn good jam by the Isley Brothers. My fave song by them. :D

LOL I like that part of the song the rest of it I HATE

If it's "You're Beautiful" by James Blunt, I just have to hear the opening notes to come down sick. :barf: :lol:

I usually wait until the chorus. If the song doesn't grab me by then, then it's pretty unlikely that it ever will. Sometimes though, if a song is really atrocious, it'll only take me a couple seconds to change it.

As long as I've been listening to music on the radio, there are lots of songs I recognize after the first note or two.

He sounds like Rod Stewart with a head cold. :lol:

Hey Solomon, that song by Blue Magic "Sideshow" has that funky beginning where it has circus music. Now, that is a good example of a song that has a cheesy beginning, but the song is beautiful.

The Side show song caught my attention at the 47 second mark when the guy said

"AND IT ONLY COSTS 50 CENTS TO SEE, WHAT LIFE HAS DONE FOR THOSE LIKE YOU AND ME"



LOL

LOL...But you got to admit, that part of the song could've been the downfall of that song for a lot of people. I know the first time I heard that I was like, "What the heck?" I was young, but even I knew that was weird.

The song just came on the radio. I could not help but hear it. :lol:
