What's your longest single song you have?

[eddiecurry]

The Day After The Revolution by Pulp - 14 mins 57 seconds

The last note/chord of the song is just over 10 minutes long. What the hell's that all about?

 

[MBV]

Global Communication 76:14

Ok its an album but also 1 track (ambient though)

 

[ivebeenhigh]

[maya]

!!!

i've got a "special limited edition bonus disc" (phew!) with mp3 audio,
THREE HOURS WORTH-
of some senile old geezer talking about transcendental meditation or something,
while honking about on a wind instrument-
all scratchy and eerie, 'cos the recording's from the 1930's...

 

[rubbershoes]

but one I actually like is marillions grendal

marillion


<crosses pingu off christmas card list>

 

[Ich bin ein Mod]

Probably Alvin Lucier "I am sitting in a room" which clocks in at about 45 minutes, but I doubt that counts as a song really

 

[perplexis]

There's a 24 hour long stretched version of one of Beethoven's symphonies somehwere on the net. That must be up there.

Ha Ha, I was thinking of that, but it's not so much a song as a serious piece of ambient background. It's great, but I've never managed to get through it all. Can't think why
Some Bill Laswell tracks (the Praxis stuff springs to mind) go on for ages and ages...

 

[bluestreak]

the longest track that i know i own is a julian cope track, the b side for one of his singles... iirc it was called "the you're going home in a cosmic ambience mix" but i haven't got a clue what the track actually is. that was fucking way long, like 40 odd minutes i think.

[Juice Terry]

sung by Collins - that's just sick!

oh yes!

<mockney accent>
Six saintly shrouded men move across the lawn slowly.
The seventh walks in front with a cross held high in hand.
And it's hey babe your supper's waiting for you.
Hey my baby, don't you know our love is true
</mockney accent>

<twiddly keyboard solo>
etc etc repeat until comatose
