2-5 minutes
B
3 minutes
C
6-8 minutes
D
1 minute
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Unsurprisingly, most song-based music genres (i.e., music genres that feature vocals and a traditional pop-song structure) have tracks with a duration of around 3 to 4 minutes.

Detailed explanation-2: -For example, pop songs are typically between three and four minutes long, while rock songs can be anywhere from five to seven minutes long. Jazz songs can be around eight minutes long, and classical songs can be over ten minutes long. The average length of a pop song is three minutes and thirty seconds.

Detailed explanation-3: -First, there’s a historical reason behind why most hit songs are just three minutes long. In the early 1900s, music was mostly released on 10-inch records, which played at a speed of 78 rpm and could only hold three to five minutes of audio per side.

Detailed explanation-4: -The typical pop song is about 3 minutes long. That is because ‘media’ like singles (grammophone records with just one song on each side) have just enough space for a song of that length. Shorter songs, between 2–3 minutes, are more likely to be listened to again right away.
