student asking question

Is it okay to use "shorter" even though there is nothing to compare? Isn't it right to say just "the short story"?

Grammatically, "the short story" would be correct here since it is not being compared to something else. However, when it comes to music, grammar is often overlooked in favor of artistic freedom. Songs generally don't follow grammar. Songs typically follow a rhyme.
