Songs come in many different shapes and sizes. It all depends on the file format and the bitrate. I'm going to make a lot of assumptions here.
I'll assume you're asking about the MP3 file format at a constant (as opposed to variable, which is impossible to calculate for your question) bitrate of 128 kilobits/sec(kbps).
Depending on who you ask, 1 kb=1024 b or 1 kb=1000 b. In this case, it's the latter. Also keep in mind, there is added overhead in almost any music format. This overhead contains information about the file, but the added amount of size is almost negligible, especially when you talk about longer songs or songs at a higher bitrate.
With the above assumptions in mind, a 1 minute song would be about 940 kB. This remains pretty linear. A 2 minute song would be 1880 kB. A 3 minute song would be 2820. A song of x minutes in length would be x * 940 kB. To get it in MB, just divide by 1024. Keep in mind, this only holds true for songs encoded at 128 kbps. At a higher or lower bitrate, you'll need to tweak the formula included below.
For any math geniuses out there, that's:
[time in secs] * [bitrate in kbps] * [1000 b / 1 kb] * [1 B / 8 b] * [1 kB / 1024 B] * [1 MB / 1024 kB] = Size in MB
Simplified:
[bitrate in kbps] * 7500 / 1048576
[128] * 7500 / 1048576 = .92 MB + [overhead for the MP3 format].
That's about 940 kB / minute

How many gb is 1000 songs?
It really depends on how long the song is, and the size of the file. The average song (3 minutes long) is about 3 megabytes, therefore 1000 songs would be 3 gigabytes, but it all depends on the size of the file. But I'd say on average a megabytes a minute. An easy way to figure it out is to look at the size of your songs, make an average size, and really if its a thousand songs, you can just change the megabytes at the end to gigabytes. Hope I could help you.

What is the size of a mp3 song?
The size of an mp3 file will vary depending upon the length of the song and the amount of compression used. A higher level of compression will mean poorer sound quality but a smaller file size. In general an average three minute song at an acceptable sound quality will be around 4 or 5MB.
