Oh wow! Nice one CV! It's possible that I might have gotten that one, but you're the one who did. How many listens did that take?

To answer your question, square, that was an instant for me on the first listen. That song has been a favorite of mine for 55 years and is on my USB stick in the car, so I hear it all the time. I never thought I'd have another realistic chance to re-capture the record at all, much less for it to be that easy. (Here I am counting my chickens....maybe too soon)

I mentioned in a previous post a query about what the limits were on the downside. The record was 0.197 seconds which was 197 thousands of a second. There are 195 more chances. 0.195 to 0.194 and all the way to the impossible 0.001. So the difference between the last two record breakers was only 1 thousand of a second. So if a 0.196 can be identified then why can't a 0.195 be identified since it is literally the same length as the previous one. And so on down to some unable to be identified limit as far as length of the clip.
To find the limits it likely required both instruments and vocals.
So #208 was a vocal sound that is in the lyrics so it did not belong on the other thread. I knew 208 was an easy one.
Stay alert since all future attempts at a world record will be a mix of instruments and vocals.
Crown on The Tokens (a huge 0.200 seconds) got a different trophy. Once I found a nicer one I began to use it. I'll use it until "hopefully" everyone has one of them.
Crown almost touched 60 seconds by solving it in 3 minutes when the guideline is to try to allow at least 60 seconds. So, here is the trophy for the new world record holder at 0.196 seconds.

Thank you, Howard. So my chicken came to be. I knew I'd see a graphical representation.
There's a whole lotta luck integral with these "championships", having to do with one's unique experience with a given song. The Lion Sleeps Tonight and Hey, Paula were hanging curve balls for me. But I'll just as likely be clueless on the next one, while another member of our elite group hits it out of the park.
Extra audio clues are best it seems. I'll add some time later.
I will throw out one weak clue: The name of the artist or group is one word.
