    Three minutes and fifty-nine seconds: Crossing the four minute line and into the storied uplands of popcraft - a procession of hits leading us towards the “three minute pop song” peak. No room for sprawl now! So The Slits’ version of “I Heard It Through The Grapevine” comes out taut and furious, starts off too angry even to get the first line out and then spits and bounces for three minutes before somehow getting talked down.

    What would your 3’59” track be?
