No Necrophobic by Slayer? Fail.

 
the eidolon 2008-05-08 07:51:51 PM  
Well, "Duke Lion" clocks in at 2 minutes exactly, so that's probably why it's not on the list.

Lorelle - you're spot on there too.

that must be why Blur - Song 2 isn't on there.


but there is no Dropkick Murphys - Cizen CIA.

or Foo Fighters - Hell.

or Agent Orange - Everything Turns Grey.


These types of list are really just to generate conversation I think ;)

Yeah, that's a great one.

 
jake_lex [TotalFark] 2008-05-08 08:43:28 PM  
If nothing else, "The Roar of the Masses Could Be Farts" is one of the best song titles ever.

/me and Mike Watt, we played for years

Good one

 
FraggleStickCar 2008-05-08 09:18:04 PM  
writer of TFA is wrong about origins of Minutemen's name, fwiw.

cannotsuggestaname:

This is all I could think of for great under 2 minute songs, but yeah that extra second scratches that...

/Wet My Bed - by S.T.P. is a good one too....

 
Stupid Floppy Clownshoes 2008-05-08 09:27:01 PM  
The Beatles' "She Came in Through the Bathroom Window" & "Why Don't We Do it in the Road"

"Man" - Yeah Yeah Yeahs

"Here She Comes Now" - Velvet Underground

"So Much Beauty in Dirt" - Modest Mouse

 
DaNightTripper [TotalFark] 2008-05-08 09:27:57 PM  
Fats Domino was the king of 2 minute hits: "Walkin' to New Orleans," "I'm Gonna Be a Wheel," "Whole Lotta Lovin'" "Hello Josephine," "Be My Guest," "I'm in Love Again" (all 1:50-2:00 minutes). "My Blue Heaven" and "I'm Walkin'" are close (2:08 and 2:04 respectively).

 
stapledmustard 2008-05-08 09:37:53 PM  
I think every song I like is right around or under the two minute mark... I get antsy at about a minute and thirty seconds... I usually flip it then unless it's really got my attention... and if I'm super antsy it's gone at 45 seconds. All that punk must have destroyed my attention span.

Johnny Cash - Folsom Prison Blues

 
Taleya [TotalFark] 2008-05-08 09:41:54 PM

The Dogs of War 2008-05-08 09:42:02 PM  
cripple creek ferry? not on there? unfortunate

 
Heist 2008-05-08 09:55:16 PM  
Since that list is mainly snotty punk, you've gotta throw some Screeching Weasel on there.

"Hey Suburbia" is 1 minute, 59 seconds of pure bliss.

 
Necrosis 2008-05-08 10:02:39 PM  
Another link from this guy...somebody on fark must be getting paid...

And what is with that stupid music player thing that comes up? Boooooo!!!

 
The Fark Knight 2008-05-08 10:11:12 PM  
No fair. "Wave of Mutilation" is 2:03. They should have included it anyway.

 
The Fark Knight 2008-05-08 10:12:21 PM  
the eidolon: Well, "Duke Lion" clocks in at 2 minutes exactly, so that's probably why it's not on the list.

I saw BigDumbFace live and it was completely insane.

Devey, oh Devey, with seashells on our ears
We spun a web of voices, we danced a day of years
Yesterday marooned us, making for today
We stood along Time's tide line, as he washed us both...
Away...

 
ukiah 2008-05-08 10:39:15 PM  
Subby here. I apologize. I hate this guy's lists, but I wanted a free greenlight without having to write a good headline.

/you would have done it too

 
Torc 2008-05-08 10:46:35 PM  
Two minutes is an eternity. Five great songs under 90 seconds:

Scooter + Jinx - Sonic Youth
Think Long - Modest Mouse
Dig It - The Beatles
God Told Me - Sebadoh
Ever Since My Accident - The Melvins

Can make a case for Til' The Morning Comes too if you're going that route.

Cat Stevens - The Wind

a GREAT song not some power-chord thumpin ancient punk rock crap fest.

 
Blaud 2008-05-09 12:02:47 AM  
A list that includes the Minutemen? You've got to be shiatting me.
Thats what hardcore music is meant to sound like. Constantly screaming doesn't make you sound cool, mongoloids. It makes you sound like a woman

/What makes a man start fires?
//other notables include Pixies - Tame, the White Stripes - Fell in Love with a Girl, and something else good, you pick
