I don't think I could possibly make a list as I have no idea which songs I listen to are of that length. The ones I thought of first were still up around 3 minutes. How do you people remember this stuff? Are you using sort functions on playlists or something?

On the Breath of Poseidon by Symphony X and Welcome to Entropia by Pain of Salvation.
Wait for Sleep by DT.
Edit: Uhm wait, On the Breath of Poseidon is too long. Change that to Transcendence.
Also, The Happiest Days of Our Lives by Pink Floyd. That beat is just :hefdaddy

Frank Zappa, "St. Alfonzo's Pancake Breakfast"

You got it right with "The Spider". One of the greatest short songs/instrumentals ever!!!! I actually have it as my ringtone!!
Speaking of Kansas, I just saw them open up for Styx and Foreigner (I only paid $10 so it was decent for the money), and I was actually bored by Kansas. I am a huge Kansas fan, but they were just going through the motions. It was kinda sad.
