I would LOVE to see them allow Gord more time than the standard 3:30 or whatever it is.

Unfortunately I have seen very prominent people condense songs for such things. Somewhere there is a cut (not a Letterman show) of Lyle Lovett and John Hiatt doing Natural Forces and condensing it by leaving oiut a verse or two which doesn't work. It would be like cutting the Fitz by neglecting the part where the ship sank.
