20 Amazing Songs That Clock In At Under 60 Seconds

1. The Beatles - "Her Majesty"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMuLi7BC_wc The Beatles ended up being, among so many other things, the undisputed kings of the very short song. They had quite a few over the course of their career, none as lovely or as concise as "Her Majesty," a song about Queen Elizabeth II. Not only was this one of the first examples of an album containing a hidden track (it wasn't listed on the sleeve of Abbey Road), but it wasn't supposed to appear on the album at all. According to Paul McCartney, this was one of those "happy accidents" that the Beatles always seemed to luck into. But that delightful fingerpicking was no accident. It's a friendly reminder that George Harrison wasn't the only talented guitarist in the group.
