They say good things come in small packages – for others, good things come in short bursts -- like songs done in two minutes or less. I’ve always had a thing for songs that go over that the five minute mark (without you feeling that it’s going for longer than expected). It’s sort of like the artists playing can’t get enough that they infect you with the same kind of feeling through their song. Ditties, on the other hand, are sweet. They’re like those little collectible items that people just like to keep, or unexpected rare treats that leave you wanting for more. Today’s list is my own collection of less than two minute songs that have, at one point or another, satiated my sweet tooth for little musical treats –
Holiday by wonder for all (0:58)
This song rings true to anyone who's ever needed a break, and wanted to express their feelings of fondness to someone -- with a ukelele accompaniment.
