 Topic: The Longest Song You Ever Heard
Posted: February 11 2007 at 21:14 |

What's the lonest song you've ever heard? For me, it's Cassandra Gemini by The Mars Volta. It's 32:27.

Umm... I think it's Light of Day, Day of Darkness by Green Carnation, just a tad over an hour long.

Local band called Flux performed a jam improv session with a bunch of add on musicians, I played bass for about 4 of the sixteen hours 
But for official songs I have to agree with Cyg.

"A pleasant shade of grey" from FATES WARNING,although it is divided into parts,but it is one song.Over 52 minutes.Having said that "Light of day,day of darkness" is the longest for me too.

Isn't Tales from Topographic Oceans supposed to be one song?
If not, A Pleasant Shade of Gray

Ahh yes I forgot, that one wins for me too. But on the other hand, the actual thing is only about 50 minutes... but even that way it wins

I can strangle a canary in a tin can and it would be really original, but that wouldn't save it from sounding like utter sh*t.

Well I may be wining, but the last 10 minutes of the song is pure silence just like Delirium Cordia's last 20 minutes is made of vinyl sounds.

Let's see Long songs i've heard are:
Dream Theater- Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence
Fates Warning- A Pleasant Shade of Gray
Neal Morse- ?
Galleon- The Ocean
But so far the longest song i've ever heard is probably Garden of Dreams by the Flower Kings which falls barely under an hour

The amazing "Garden of Dreams" by The Flower Kings, 59 minutes long.
Then there's Dream Theater's "Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence", shorter (42 minutes or something) but probably better...
Amazing pieces of work, both of 'em.
