What is rock 'n' roll? Two minutes of super short songs to tell you!

Give you a song, if it's only a two-minute time limit, what can you expect?

Yes, they can still give you unlimited surprises and touches, these short and pithy songs, sometimes not very eye-catching, but more intriguing. They are hidden like treasures in countless albums, waiting for people to dig up.

I'm just throwing bricks and stones here, limited by space, and only ten are listed here (the following songs are arranged from longest to shortest).

《Yesterday》,(2:05)

The Beatles,专辑《Yesterday and Todays》

This song does not need too much introduction, it is basically one of the divine comedies, the perfect melody, the perfect lyrics, the perfect length, and the basics of what the ranking awards should be taken. I really can't find any flaws in her, anyway, I can basically loop the single for a lifetime.

《Dearmboat Annie》,(2:01)

(Song of the same name album, Heart's debut "Dreamboat Annie")

Heart, album Dreamboat Annie

Without letting her eyebrows go, our Wilson sisters spent bringing the album's eponymous song to their debut album. Compared to the other popular "Crazy on You" from the same album, this one is much gentler. The song was also the first of their kind to hit the Adult Contemporary.

《Eruption》,(1:43)

Van Halen,专辑《Van Halen》

The guitar god has brought to mankind a prodigious classic, and countless guitarists have competed to flip the track, which is widely regarded as one of the greatest guitar solos. True to its name, it combines speed, power, and passion to bring you an immersive volcanic eruption experience in less than two minutes.

《Hello There》,(1:40)

Cheap Trick,专辑《In Color》

It's also entirely possible to come up with some hard rock in two minutes. This passionate song comes from inexpensive tricks' album In Color, and there's an interesting story behind it.

In order to better test the sound reinforcement system during live performances and play a role in warming up the scene, lead guitarist Rick Nielsen wrote one of these songs. You'll find that most of their Live from late 1970 to mid-1980 opened with this song.

(Who's the band's rock opera Tommy, the album itself has sold more than 20 million)

The Who, album Tommy

Tommy, a rock opera by the band Who, tells the story of what happens between Tommy, a deaf, blind and stupid boy, and his family. The song became UNICEF's official theme song in 1972.

《Tourette's》 (1:35)

Nirvana, album "In Utero"

There are two songs of less than 2 minutes in "Mother", the other is "Very Ape", and if you are interested, you can listen to it, but I tried to introduce only one song for an album, so I picked a more wild one.

Tourette's here refers to Tourette Syndrome, Tourette Syndrome, a tic often found in adolescence characterized by involuntarily shaking their heads, being irritable, and making hoarse throat-clearing sounds.

《Pigs on the Wing 1》,(1:25)

(PF's album Animals, the building on the way is the largest red brick building in Europe, battersea power station, decommissioned in 1983)

Pink Floyd, album Animals

Romance doesn't often appear in PF's creative themes, but this song written by Mizuya to his new friend Carolyne Christie is an exception. Compared to the other songs of "Animals", this one is obviously more tender and soothing.

《Cheap Day Return》,(1:23)

(Jethro Tull's concept album Aqualung, featuring the exploration of "The Difference Between Religion and God")

Jethro Tull, album Aqualung

Lead singer Ian Anderson once went back to visit his sick father, only to find that the nurse who was taking care of his father on the side was not expending energy on caring for the patient, but was focusing on the stupid thing of finding his own autograph, so he had this song.

《Lazing on a Sunday Afternoon》,(1:07)

(Queen's 1975 album A Night at the Opera, named after another theatrical film of the same name, A Night at the Opera, was the most expensive album to produce at the time, largely because of another, better-known song on the album, "Bohemian Rhapsody".

Queen,专辑《A Night at the Opera》

The hilarious song, from Queen's 1975 album A Night at the Opera, was one of their shortest. Another feature of this song is that it has achieved a transposition from Eb to A in one minute, and the arrangement of such an effective connection in such a short period of time is of course by Freddy Mercury.

"I like to try all kinds of things, this is me, I'm a vagaries person, and it's actually a bit challenging to create songs like this, but I'm sure I'll write more songs like this later."

《Stop》,(0:30)

(I myself have a videotape of the movie of the same name, The Wall, which I have collected from the medieval store, which is also one of my favorite music films)

Pink Floyd,专辑《The Wall》

The song on the album "Labyrinth" is the shortest work in PF. It tells the story of the protagonist Pink trying to say no to himself as a Nazi dictator.

The Beatles,专辑《Abbey Road》

Considered the first "Easter Egg" song in rock 'n' roll history, it was included on the legendary album Abbey Road. The song itself is not actually listed in the album catalog, but 14 seconds after the end of the final song of the album in name, "The End", you will discover the hidden track. It is also the shortest-lived work of the Beatles.
