Your Shortest 15 Songs?

[Ragged Glory]

What are some of your favorite songs in your iPod that are the shortest in length? You could damn near listen to 20 of these before dinner's done. Maybe you should try to keep them under 3:00 too? Like any song long in length, I'd like you to go by my 2 main rules...

A. The songs must be Studio songs, not live.
B. You should put down the length of how short your songs are.

That's all there is to it. Now, here's a few of my short faves:

(Longest To Shortest)


1. "One Day." - MELODY GARDOT (2:04)

2. "The Needle And The Damage Done." - NEIL YOUNG (2:03)

3. "We Belong Together." - RITCHIE VALENS (2:02)

4. "She Came In Through The Bathroom Window." - THE BEATLES (1:58)

5. "Hell." - FOO FIGHTERS (1:57)

6. "Butterfly." - LENNY KRAVITZ (1:52)

7. "Eruption." - VAN HALEN (1:43)

8. "Intruder." - VAN HALEN (1:40)

9. "Carry That Weight." - THE BEATLES (1:37)

10. "Tourette's" - NIRVANA (1:35)

11. "Till The Morning Comes." - NEIL YOUNG (1:28)

12. "Twilight." - MELODY GARDOT (1:01)

13. "Gas Chamber." - FOO FIGHTERS (0:57)

14. "X-Girlfriend." - BUSH (0:45)

15. "Embryo." - BLACK SABBATH (0:28)


That's my list of short favorites. What's yours?

Does anyone else have a list of short songs for fun? It was fun/interesting for me to attempt.

[Ragged Glory]

Yes, I have a list. It took me a while, and I kept it under two minutes long instead of three.

Some people might not have that many songs under 3 minutes though, so I wanted to see what might come up. Good attempt.

It's great when some of the truly great artists create incredible long songs as well as short ones. If it's a good song & not just a "filler", it's awesome.
