Have a Good Song That Clocks in Under 3:00 Long?

[DrW]

This one is even under two minutes...

 

Arguably even better (and also under three minutes) is how Ruth Underwood explains and plays her percussion part 30 years later...

Short and pop songs go together like salt and pepper, ham and eggs, cream and sugar....

 

There are about 10 million of them.

Here is a live version of it (to stay within the "under 3 minutes" rule, you have to start at around 2:30. Before that, the video shows the interaction of Hayley Williams with audience members).

Same as when this gem ends... it has to be attached... although OCLT is for sure more than 3 minutes:

As a student in Germany in the mid-seventies, some friends and I sometimes brought Trout Mask Replica to parties. It certainly got the attention of the disco crowd.

Burl doesn't cut it... wish I could find the original. May have been somehow archived for historical purposes... I don't know.
