Loooong songs

Recommended Posts

Well, recent long song I've heard was Sun O)))'s "Her Lips Were Wet With Venom"

A freaking 28 minutes and 14 seconds of pure glory.

The best long track ever listened.

Same, that's probably my favorite long track overall because it's so beautiful and never gets tiring. There are so many amazing long songs though. Flood by Boris which was shown to be by Zesshoku is also magnificent and mindblowing and also over an hour long. :P

I can't think of all that many favorite long songs off the top of my head, but there are a couple that spring to mind.

Fuck Buttons - Surf Solar (10:32) - I remember listening to this song for hours, over and over again. It's quite a mesmerizing song.

Ludovico Einaudi – Andare (07:02)

Arvo Pärt – Spiegel im Spiegel (10:41)

夢中夢 – 祈り (10:27)

The only long songs that I like are 9GOAT BLACK OUT's "Heaven" and Rin Toshite Shigure's "moment A rhythm", both over 7 minutes long. I'm not really a big fan of long songs.

The Doors - When The Music's Over

Eagles - Long Road out of Eden

Deep Purple - Child in Time

Golden Earring - Vanilla Queen

Golden Earring - Mad Love's Comin'

Golden Earring - Twilight Zone

I tried to avoid songs who have been listed already... there may still be doubles but oh well, my mistake then.

There are some epic long songs out there. Everybody should check out Vanilla Queen by Golden Earring. It's amazing. One of my favorites... and one of the most underrated songs too.

Long songs are great! They give the band so much room for experimentation, and usually take their time building up the mood and feel of the song instead of just hurtling it at you.

The longest I ever heard (and I think it's one of the longest ever) is one by a norwegian metal band, Green Carnation. The song's called "Light of Day, Day of Darkness", and it sums up to 60:06 mins. It's a one-song album, and their magnum opus so far!

Usually most post-rock songs rank far above the 7 min mark, so I won't even list them here (I'd say anything by Mono is an instant win), but I gotta say 9GOATS BLACK OUT' Heaven and DEAD END's 冥合 really shine for me!

(Oh, can't leave Opeth's The Drapery Falls out)

another big shout out for Merry's 激声 from me

gonin-ish's 赫い記憶 comes in at just under 20 minutes and is totally great (most of their other songs qualify for this thread too, but that one's the KING OF LONG)

recently listening to 今日は私が死んだ後の世界のことばかり考えていた by hehishimism a whole lot (just under twelve minutes, not counting the long silence and hidden track at the end)

Inugami Circus Dan's 三つの扉 is more like four completely different songs awkwardly smashed together but it works B')

also 献血ソング by TsuShiMaMiRe, the best
