Hey does anybody know what the fastest song here is?
well it doesn't have to be the fastest but just like w/ a tempo of quarternote = 140+? (somewhere really high would be really really good!!!)
And then, howabout a slow song? w/ a tempo of...
quarternoet=90- (or just a reaaallly sllooow seeming calming song)

I have heard of an alto sax solo for about 1000 bpm. (not a typo) *searches*

I know the opening of the Pathetique sonata is pretty slow. I'm not for sure, but that could proves to be the (if not, one of) the slowest pieces/sections.

"Songs contain vocal parts that are performed with the human voice...commonly accompanied by other musical instruments... Colloquially, song is often used to refer to any music composition, even those without vocals... In European classical music, however, this usage is considered incorrect and "song" should only be used to describe a composition for the human vocals."

See, I've gotten past of the proper use of "songs." It's when people truly believe that song = any piece of music.
