The funny thing about the question is that anything by Van Hagar is all equally short, b/c it's turned off immediately.

But those three seconds (and God forbid, you don't make it to the receiver before the vocals kick in)...man, aren't they the LONGEST of our lives?

I believe Tora Tora is actually shorter than Happy Trails (and yes, though it has no "lyrics", it does have "vocals")(as does Spanish Fly - right at the beginning, inexplicably oyu hear Dave clear his throat).

Speaking of long tunes, years ago, this was probably early 90's, I was at a topless bar in San Diego. The DJ had just played a VH song and asked if anyone knew what the first VH tune to go over 4 minutes was. Thru process of elimination, I came up with Women in Love off VHII. I won a pitcher of Beer.
