Start with the notation you need

The three Belles of Tipperary listings share an opening key signature of two sharps, D major, but they differ in time signature: two use 4/4 and one uses 2/2. Compare the barring and beaming in the full scores if a particular beat grouping or reading convention matters to you. The key signature describes the opening only, so check for later changes or accidentals.

Account for the length difference

One Belles of Tipperary listing gives a duration of about 260 seconds, while the other two give about 66 and 64 seconds. The supplied details do not explain the difference. Inspect the longer score for repeated sections, additional material, or a different pace before choosing it, and treat duration figures as details of the individual listing rather than a recommended performance length.

What the listings do not establish

The Belles of Tipperary listings do not name a composer, and no verified source material is supplied for the tune's history, instrumentation, or traditional or arranged status. Treat the listed key, time signature, tempo, and length as details of individual scores, not as a confirmed edition description or a full account of the music.

Choosing between the available scores

Begin by matching the time signature and length shown for each Belles of Tipperary listing to your needs: two are in 4/4 and one is in 2/2, and one is much longer than the others. Then read through the score itself for barring, repeats, and any details that are not captured by the opening key and time signature.
