You know, that level always gave me problems too, but for a slightly different reason: it scared the hell out of me. I hated that "drowning timer" song back then, and I found it really difficult to get to each air bubble before my life ran out, so the level drove me nuts. Eventually I would just turn off the system when I got to the level. I never did beat it either, I just ended up using a level select code to continue on (which I didn't find out about until like a month after I had given up trying to get past Labyrinth Zone).
Appropriately, I also found a few levels from Ecco: Defender of the Future absolutely insane. Even when I used a walkthrough later, it was still a HUGE chore to get through. There were a number of them, but some such as the Egg Chamber near the end were just ugh. I never want to have to go through that part again, although I can't even tell why it's so frustrating...in theory it sounds easy, but I could just never pull off what you needed to do to get past it.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
