It's almost impossible for a 2-minute song to be boring (but easy to be unfulfilling).

I've probably played 40 concertos in my life, and they are great fun to play, but I find most of them boring just to *listen* to.

You're now picking on her instead of me since she's more eager to talk about her aversion to length, but I also agree on that point. I'd go further and say that is a big reason artists make long songs. Unfortunately, if they're trying to sell music, then they should know their audience and restrain themselves if the target audience is people like me, such as fans of music television or hits radio. To me, if a song is long, it needs to be lively, or else I won't want to wait it out.
