my longest song is Anesthetize by Porcupine tree, it is 17:43 long and still i like to listen to it, enjoy every part of it, the song seems to be divided into different phases and it slowly transcends from one phase to another in a beautiful manner.
so what is your longest song and how long is it ?

The longest song I've ever been forced to listen to was "The Devil's Glitch" by Chris Butler. Its 69 minutes and has over 500 verses!! It was in the Guinness Book of World Records as the longest recorded pop song. My girlfriend is the one who made me listen to it and I thought it would never end. I also thought that maybe there was a skip in the CD, but sure enough it was playing the whole time. I'm not really a fan of Chris Butler, nor did I even know who he was before this song was introduced to me, but I do give him credit for having the patience and energy to record a 69 minute song.
The longest song that I ever listened to that I actually do like is a song called, "Float On" by the Floaters. It in its original version, in its in entirety, it is 11 minutes and 59 seconds. Its an old rhythm and blues song from the 70's. The singers tell you their names and astrological symbols at the very end, its very 1970.
....wow... thanks for sharing, now i know songs can last longer than an hour...

I can't believe I sat there that long too!! I started to zone out after awhile, like i said, I didn't really like it, but once it was over, my girlfriend told me it was 69 minutes and I was a little upset. HAHA. Not really my style, but I guess working in food service and customer service you get used to not caring what music is on in the background.
