Shortest: Germs - Wha We Do Is Secret
Longest: Ricardo Villalobos - Fizheuer Zieheuer

Shortest - (Tie at 0:05 each) - "Untitled" - Memphis Goons & "CEO Outro" - Slick Rick

Longest - (1:19:17) - "Birdman Jr. (Best of Lil' Wayne) - Lil' Wayne

I think the Lil' Wayne one is a mixtape, not a song.

ah yeah but it's formatted as one song...hmm

okay proper song longest is:

"Meditations (Live)" - Charles Mingus Sextet feat Eric Dolphy

Carcass - Die In Pain

Robert Ashley - Automatic Writing

Descendents - All (0:00:03)

Daft Punk - Essential Mix (1:57:36)

A Treatise On Cosmic Fire (35:19) - Todd Rundgren
Lucky (Rap) (0:04) - Joni Mitchell

people, i asked for songs, so mixes don't qualify :)

oh sorry i will revise!

excluding books/mixes:

Descendents - All (0:00:03)
Terry Riley - In C (1:16:17) *25th Anniversary Concert

0:04 - TIE: They Might Be Giants - "I Heard a Sound" and "Who's Knocking on the Wall" (from "Fingertips")

32:17 - Harold Budd & Clive Wright - "Pensive Aphrodite"

you better add the duration for each song because I'll make a poll based on the top 10 shortest/longest tracks

The Conet Project - "Voice Sample (1-10)" @ 0:12

Lindstrom - "Where I Go You Go Too" @ 28:58

0:04 John Lennon - Nutopian International Anthem
31:42 The Mars Volta - Cassandra Gemini

LOL.

Carcass - Die In Pain 0.06

Robert Ashley - Automatic Writing 46.00

Both Julian Cope tracks (I'm on a Cope kick)

0:39 Jesus Christ & The Mysterons

21:28 Poet Is Priest... [Original 21.36 Mix]

Love that the second is the "original 21 minute, 36 second mix" that is 8 seconds shorter than promised in the title.

Shortest: Germs - Wha We Do Is Secret (00:44)
Longest: Ricardo Villalobos - Fizheuer Zieheuer (37:11)

"Joy Riding with Frank" by the Rollins Band (32:06)
"Thirty Dirty Birds" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers (00:15)

big pun - intermission 0:21
biz markie - the biz is going off 31:33

tough to decide what's a "real song"

shortest:
The Prefects - VD (:13) (CDs still available, btw!)

longest:
Boredoms - 77Boadrums (1:46:56)
Eliane Radigue - Adnos 3 (1:12:40)

a few more Radigues...

Manuel Gottsching - E2-E4 (58:39)
Steve Reich - Music for 18 Musicians (56:31)

plenty more improv/noise/art musics in the 30+ minutes

I didn't use any of these

well I don't have the radigue one

i dunno where to start. So many album-side length "songs" that aren't really "songs". Just some improvy/drony noise of some sort. My longest song is probably Sicle Cell & Rhapazooty, Rhapazooty In Blue at 16:45, followed by a dozen other disco hip-hop "epics".

longest: Gavin Bryars, Alter Ego & Philip Jeck - "The Sinking of the Titanic" 1:12:35

shortest: John Zorn - "Hammerhead" 0:11 (i have lots of other, shorter stuff but this would probably be the only thing to qualify as a "song")

Lights of Lake George - William Parker 27:24
Tony the Tiger - Thurl Ravenscroft 00:21

Keith Jarret - Vienna Part 1 (42:06)
The Beatles - Her Majesty (0:23)

longest: lcd soundsystem - "45:33" (45:58)
shortest: janet jackson - "interlude: let's dance" (0:04)

shortest: Dead Kennedys: "Short Songs" (0:28)
longest: E2-E4 (59:35)

shortest: "mr coffee man" by smudge (4 sec)
longest: pink lady lemonade by AMT (60 min 22 sec)

longest: Hafler Trio's 'Kill The King' 1:13:01
Shortest: Plenty of sub 10s stuff from Men's Recovery Project and NWW, but will go with 11s for the Prefect's 'VD'

Can't decide what counts as real songs. So many skits on rap albums and so many short tracks from Static From The Outside Set sittin at the top.
But anyway..
Shortest: "The Ironman Takeover (Skit)", Ghostface, 0:05
Longest: "Confusion Pt 1-2", Fela Kuti, 25:36

Very surprised I don't have anything longer on here.

John Zorn "Hammerhead" - 0:13
Ricardo Villalobos "Fizheuer Zieheuer" - 37:12

William Basinski - "dlp1" 63:33

boredoms - hawaiian disco without bollocks (0:03)
jim o'rourke - happy days (47:32)

Hard to decide what's an actual song and what's not, but:

Pearl & Dean 'Odeon Cinema Theme' - 0:15

discounting dj mixes and live bootlegs

Miles Davis - Gondwana (Live) - 46:50.
Prince - Untitled - 0:04 (There's a bunch of them on The Rainbow Children)

Shortest: Over The Rhine, "Eve" (0:05)

shortest: surprise ending (unknown artist) (0:05)
longest: Riah Sahiltaahk - Magma - (21:45)

Longest:700 Hobo Names - John Hodgeman (53:50)

Does the fingerstyle guitar in the background qualify it as a song? If not,

Redbird - John Zorn (41:01)

Shortest:L8 - Richie Hawtin (0:14)

And that's not counting stuff like samples, skits, and live introductions.

shortest: Maher Shalal Hash Baz - A Wind (0:06)

longest: Boredoms - GO!!!!! SR 5 (1:04:19)

Miles Davis, "Gondwana" - 46:46
Arthur Lee, "You Can Save Up to 50% But You're Still a Long Ways from Home" - 0:17

Left out a coupla dozen drum loops and Hanna-Barbera sound effects and whatnot

0:03 "All" - Descendents
12:34 "B-Boy Bouillabaisse" - The Beastie Boys - no so long!

It's all about 'A Year And A Day' for me, so I edited my 'B-Boy Bouillabaisse' down to an even more manageable 2:22

0:03 "All" - Descendents

Three citations of this so far!

Also two apiece for John Zorn's "Hammerhead" and Miles Davis' "Gondwana" - both with conflicting running times (0:11/0:13 and 46:46/46:50 respectively)

Bikini Kill - In Accordance To Natural Law (0:28)

John Lennon - "Nutopian National Anthem" 0:04

Spacemen 3 - An Evening of Contemporary Sitar Music (44:17)
Half Japanese - Rip My Shirt to Shreds (0:19)

The longest track is actually a Scharpling and Wurster bit.

I don't know how to do this with a Zune, so I'm going to make guesses:

Shortest: AFX - "Bit" (0:06)
Longest: Spacemen 3 - "An Evening of Contemporary Sitar Music (~40:00)

how do I do this with a zune? I don't have all of my music on the computer

I used to have this dumb rule that I wouldn't have any songs shorter than the Descendents' "Weinerschnitzel," or any longer than VU's "Sister Ray" back when I was trying to keep my hard drive uncluttered, but that went by the wayside with cheap storage.

Shortest are a bunch of non-song intros and outros. But I seem to have a ton of 4 second things. I'll go with Starvations Army's "Fun" of The New Hope comp LP. Ohio hardcore.

Longest is "Skrubba" by Pärson Sound. Swedish psych/prog. 28:57.

Viewing my iTunes files this way revealed that iTunes had mis-imported a bunch of tracks and made them unlistenable at less than a second long. So thanks for the chance to fix this.

Shortest: the untitled third track on Wild Animal by Sunburned Hand of the Man (0:05)
Longest: Anthony Braxton, Composition 345 (recorded live in Boston)

Shortest (tie):
(0:06) Kaveret (Poogy) - "Poogy at 71" (from the album Poogy Tales, 1973)
(0:06) Scary Mansion - "Untitled" (from the album Every Joke is Half the Truth, 2008)

Longest:
(1:03:33) William Basinski - "DIP 1.1" (from The Disintegration Loops I, 2001)
