So I timed my complete runthrough of Nightfall (which I have memorised, surprisingly) and it clocked out to 53 minutes and 9 seconds. Let’s give me a minute for possible errors, averaging to about 52 minutes.

HOLY CRAP.

Okay, look at it like this. There are 14 songs, and of those, 5 standalone singles. This means that if all songs were divided equally, we would have roughly 3 minutes and 42 seconds a song. This is not the case. The Standalones are far longer than the (I call them) bridge songs. Y'know, the narrative pieces that develop the story?

Let’s assume each bridge piece averages out to about 2:30. That would imply that all the Standalones are 6 minutes long each.

Holy crap this is insane what the hell am I doing
