The Guardian has a very interesting article about long songs that you almost never get to hear on the radio. They have made a list of pop/rock songs that last more than 10 minutes, some of which I had never heard and others that I have always liked.
The Songs that Never End
I think that we can discuss favourite long songs here, but I would set the bottom limit at 5 or 6 minutes rather than 10. In any case, the radio almost always plays edited versions of longer songs or simply cuts them short with their bla bla bla. We can rehabilitate some of them here.
The first favourites of mine that came to mind when I read the article were these:
Moonchild - King Crimson (I immediately discovered that even YouTube prefers short versions because just about all versions of this were only about 2min30!)
Take a Pebble - Emerson, Lake and Palmer
Yes - Roundabout
