What's The Longest Song?

What is the longest song you people have ever heard?

The longest song I have heard is 74 minutes or something and it is an electronic song.

The actual longest song I have ever heard has to "I Heard It Through The Grapevine" by Credence Clear Water which is around 15 minutes...

I have heard many long songs.

"Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick" 45 minutes.

"Waltari - Yeah! Yeah! Die! Die! Death Metal Symphony in Deep C" 55 minutes but it's divide to 8 parts.

There is more long songs:
Rush - 2112 [20:33]
Rush - Cygnus X-1 book II [18:04]
Yes - Close to the edge [18:43]

In "yes - Tales from Topographic Oceans" album all songs are over 15 minutes. The Revealing Science of God [20:25], The Remembering (High the Memory) [20:38], The Ancient (Giants Under the Sun) [18:35] and Ritual (Nous Sommes du Soleil) [21:37]

Yeah... I have heard the Jethro Tull song.

Never heard of any of the other songs though. I shall give them a listen though. Do you recommend I waste that much time listening to them?

Rush - 2112 is also very good progressive rock song. It's my favourite song this moment. YouTube - Rush 2112 Overture and Temples of Syrinx

Waltaris' song is great mix of death metal and symphony music. There is also inluences from electronic music. I like.
YouTube - Waltari & Avanti! - The Top

Edit: Some youtube links

Those are only short clips. I think that you can't upload over 20 minutes long video to youtube.
That Waltari & Avanti! - The Top is 8th part of Death Metal Symphony in Deep C.


Rush -2112 (Wikipedia)
