Notes:
Ice Cap Act 1 technically lasts longer than is documented in the song length comparison chart, but it's because after that point there aren't any new substantive compositional aspects, it's basically a repeat of what you heard first with some minimal changes.
The word "Andelusian" that appears in this video is more commonly spelled "Andalusian."
