Your favorite song

Guest Lord of The Curry

So the other day I'm listening to Hayden's "Live at Convocation Hall" disc and a song on it called "I don't think we should ever meet" goes about a minute long but still managed to rule.

 

What about you? What's YOUR favorite short-song?

 

*Please refrain from jokes about The Dames or using "I Wish" by Skee-Lo in this thread.*

Any of SOD's various ballads, and Suicidal Tendencies "I Won't Fall in Love Today".

There's a lot to choose from.

 

Maybe "Corrosion" by Nasum.

Pretty much any short song by the Descendents, like "Kids", "Pervert", and "I'm Not a Loser".

 

But my fave at the moment would probably be Me First and the Gimme Gimme's cover of "My Favourite Things". I like how they stole the opening riff to Bad Religion's "Generator".

 

BTW, Fat Wreck Chords put out an awesome compliation CD of 30 second songs by every punk band under the sun called Short Music For Short People. Great stuff.

AFI's "Strength Through Wandering"

Its "Strength Through Wounding"; and I don't know if it really counts, since its not much of a song, rather just an album intro.

 

Anyway, other favorites of mine:

 

"Pissing In The Mainstream" by Dying Fetus (thank you AoO)

"Death Comes Ripping" by The Misfits

"Last Caress" by the Misfits

"Biotech is Godzilla" by Sepultura

Fish Fuck- GWAR

 

Funny and has a good beat.

 

A good deal of the songs of of Short Music are all good, like Howdy Doody in The Woodshed.

'tourette's', nirvana

 

'eleanor rigby' would have EASILY gotten it, but it runs at exactly 2:00.

Prince, "Sister." 1:37 of pure incestual fun with a great little riff. And I'll admit to having also checked the time on "Eleanor Rigby" before coming to this decision.

NOFX has about 50 contenders.

 

'Straight American Slave' by RFTC is godlike.

 

'Something for the girl with everything' by SPARKS runs about 2:10, but it's the shortest song I can think of that is this near to utter perfection.

Another contender that goes, I think, 1 second over: the Smiths' "Girlfriend in a Coma." Pretty great.
