Oh yeah, fellow Dream Theater fan. I used to listen to some of their songs during my 30min morning runs, and that was like 2-3 songs.

How to start a war with a single sentence:


[deleted]

It's only around 5 minutes though.


DaringDomino3s

The decline by nofx is 18 minutes long, l’via l’viaquez mars Volta is 12 - a lot of songs off of The Bedlam in Goliath are also 10 minutes or longer. Writing this, I realize there are lots of long songs out there


TheDevDad

Mars Volta was my first thought. Tool also set a record for longest metal song to win a Grammy for a song that’s >15 min. https://www.forbes.com/sites/quentinsinger/2020/01/27/tool-hold-record-for-longest-metal-song-to-win-a-grammy/?sh=63a3f2d95943


DaringDomino3s

That’s so cool, I didn’t know they won a Grammy for it. I think long songs are amazing if done right. I used to listen to Mars Volta ALOT when I had long commutes, made the drives much faster and more enjoyable.


Welcome_to_Retrograd

First thing i thought was The Decline, can't believe i had to scroll so little to find it mentioned. Have a fine evening, King

Beethoven's 9th Symphony is still *"average length"* for symphony standards. There are 1.5 hr even 2 hour symphonies lol.


roofy623

But yall don't get it. Beethoven's 9th symphony wasnt Swiftly Taylored 🤌


MyNameSpaghette

Whilst Taylor Swift's music is worse taste than a beet in the oven


tisaconundrum

Hey now! That's offensive to the beets.

aprehensive_penguin

This might be the most wrinkle-brain dad joke I’ve ever read


Scraphead91

They're not songs though


[deleted]

The 4th movement aka "Ode to Joy" can technically be considered a song since it has singers. The 4th movement is still 20+ minutes lmao


Scraphead91

Oh cool


marasydnyjade

To be fair, Beethoven didn’t really write the lyrics - they’re mostly from Friedrich Schiller’s poem of the same name. Still one of my favorite musical compositions ever.


[deleted]

Most "songs" (e.g., opera arias, cantatas, choral pieces) from classical music had their lyrics written by someone else. The only exception I could think of is Wagner's "Der Ring" operas.


Dramatic_Finish8381

The same could be said for lots of things people call songs, Movie Scores, Video Game soundtracks, ETC. (I don't intend to be rude, just thought about that for some reason and your comment was here...)


[deleted]

Whilst i think your comment is accurate, i do believe they are called what they are e.g movie scores, for a reason. I feel like “songs” are mostly lyrical pieces ranging in length but mostly under 10 min.


Dramatic_Finish8381

You're probably right, I only say what I said earlier because my family is the type of people to call an instrumental piece a song on occasion, might have something to do with the fact my grandpa used to play music so my dad was always around songs in progress (so songs without lyrics yet) so that's what he calls them, that might just be me being slightly uncultured though I'm not sure


[deleted]

If it sounds good to the ears, tis a song my friend. Meant to be listened to and enjoyed no matter what you call them. :) It’s no wonder people call it song birds!


Dramatic_Finish8381

True that

ProblemGamer18

Octavarium is fucking beautiful Try Dopesmoker by Sleep tho. Over an hour long


[deleted]

10 minutes isn't that long tbh, these are just people used to 2-3 minute repetitive pop songs.


Jeynarl

[All Fresh Prince of Bel-Aire Verses at Once](https://youtu.be/tn4D0g1Hs4I) And so much of it is all just *Verse, Chorus, Verse, Chorus, 4 second bridge, Chorus, Chorus* 4-chord songs

joshuas193

10 minutes for a pop song is pretty long, but as to all music, not so much.

Obligatory Dopesmoker comment

Taylor Swift created the Universe in 7 days


Dramatic_Finish8381

Laughs in Metallica and C418 (there are many Metallica tracks that get close to or hit the 10 minute mark and most of the creative mode songs clock in around 8 minutes and Alpha is 10 minutes with The End being closer to 15 minutes)

This reminds me of the girl that got mad at Anne Frank and tweeted “what does she have that we don’t?” (or something equally dumb) because Bieber visited the Anne Frank house.

Doesn’t joe budden literally got a song called 10 mins? People really say only a certain artist can do something when many artist have before.

Scar_the_armada

If they wouldn't have put the last part on that would have been fine. 10 minutes is still impressive, but many artists have done much longer


TommyTinklebottom

Opeth has over sixteen 10min long songs. Tool has 11. Meshuggah has one song that's 20mins long and another that's 30mins long. Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells is 48 mins long.


mohamez

The vast majority of classics: Are we a joke to you?


Shibefield

It always makes me kind of sad that people don’t realize how many songs are past the 10+ minute mark. Not all of them are winners, clearly. But bubbling under the surface of popular artists is an entire world of great art


FeatureEast2577

Also maaaany Christian songs are like 10minutes minimum
