Yes, radio resisted playing any records over 2.5 minutes. In 1968, "MacArthur Park" by Richard Harris broke that barrier wide open!

This is another Brenda Lee great performance! I remember this song as being the promotion for Brenda's 10 Golden Years album. But Dj's were too busy with sexy foreign imports. And, though Miss Lee was the same age as artist topping the charts, she was considered somewhat "old hat". Thanks for posting!

Great song written by David Gates.Check out the Gwenn Stacey version. I so prefer the early work (writing, arranging, producing) of David Gates to his stuff with Bread. But anyhow, this is the incomparable Brenda Lee, and she just nails it.

Records in the '50's and '60's were certainly very short!
