Jack Black’s ‘Minecraft’ Song Shortest Hot 100 Hit Ever
Hit songs are generally quick — Billboard Hot 100 top 10s ran an average of three minutes and 40 seconds in 2024, according to Hit Songs Deconstructed — but no Hot 100 hit has ever been as brief as Jack Black’s “Steve’s Lava Chicken.”
The track — at just 34 seconds in its original form (with a still-swift 1:15 extended mix also released) — breaks the record as the shortest Hot 100 hit ever by run time, dating to the chart’s Aug. 4, 1958, inception. The cut from the soundtrack of A Minecraft Movie debuts at No. 77 on the list dated May 3, 2025.

Love Will Probably Kill Me Before Cigarettes and Wine is filled with great string arrangements, slick production, and a 70’s flair that mirrors early James Bond scores. Luke Spiller’s star shines ever so brightly on his first venture away from The Struts to create a record that is both a departure from the sound that he established with his bandmates, and a welcomed throwback to an era of smoke-filled jazz clubs that featured captivating singers.
