    Just listening to Blur (Song 2) and I still can't believe how much ass kicking can be squeezed into two minutes of music. Usually I can't get into shorter songs like this, but for some reason this song defies all logic to me. Anyone know of any other songs, say shorter than three minutes, that kick ass?

    When i read the title of the thread, I immediately thought of Song 2. Great song.

    The only other short song I can think of right now is "Fell In Love With A Girl" by the White Stripes...memory lapse.

    I also thought of song 2 by blur when i read the title.

    mmmmmmmmmmmm pop

    Every single white stripes song kicks sweet aSs, besides the one about growing up with your girlfriend, which brings up feelings of hatred and anger.

    Also all of Tenacious D's non-album song, HBO specials i mean.

    Pretty much any Misfits song (with Danzig as the singer, dammit) fits into this category.

    Also, any "real" punk (sorry Sonics, but Blink 182 past Dude Ranch is not punk) would fit in here like Ramones, Buzzcocks, Less Than Jake, Rancid, Operation Ivy, etc.

    I thought Sarah McLachlan was athiest or agnostic?...

    Building A Mystery
    you come out at night
    that's when the energy comes
    and the dark side's light
    and the vampires roam
    you strut your rasta wear
    and your suicide poem
    and a cross from a faith
    that died before Jesus came
    you're building a mystery

    I could be wrong tho...

    She is agnostic but she made a version of this old Christian song/hymn.

    "Prayer of St. Francis"
    Lord make me an instrument of your peace
    Where there is hatred let me sow love.
    Where there is injury, pardon
    Where there is doubt, faith
    Where there is despair, hope
    Where there is darkness, light.
    And where there is sadness, joy

    O divine master grant that I may
    not so much seek to be consoled as to console
    to be understood as to understand
    To be loved as to love
    For it is in giving that we receive,
    it is in pardoning that we are pardoned
    And it's in dying that we are born to eternal life
    Amen


    The song was played in its entirety in the Buffy season 6 finale.

    It's pretty funny, but if you've seen a recent Blur interview, sorta around the time whazis-name went off to do the whole Gorillaz thing, it's obvious how much everybody in the band hates this song. None of them can stand it.
