I'm a big fan of the Private Psychadelic Reel, and the Sunshine Underground is great too and almost 10 minutes.

Some of my favorites in my library:

The Avalanches - Cornerstone Set (25 minutes)
NOFX - The Decline (18 minutes)
Chaikovsky's 1812 Overture (17 minutes)
Nina Simone - Sinnerman (10 1/2 minutes)
Underworld - Born Slippy (just under 10)

So i had a look on media player since I don't actually know any good songs over 10.

Shoot me down -  Boy Kill Boy. 10:16 *
A Modern Myth - 30 Seconds to Mars 14:14 *
A Dark Knight 16:15 (Soundtrack).

*These both have gaps in the middle.... But I don't listen to any of these songs. I guess I don't have a very long attention span.

I consider The Wall as one long song.

There is nothing more epic than Mahler for >10 minute songs. He's the grand master of it.

There are so many good songs of decent length. I much prefer these to the 3:45 shit you hear normally. I feel kind of like Si in the beer thread - overwhelmed by what to talk about. Most recently I've been revisiting Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Sunn O))), although I don't know if I'd call them epic. I'll post more later, but in the mean time I'll just leave you with It's a Fast Driving Rave-Up with The Dandy Warhols Sixteen Minutes. That shit right there is pretty epic for me.

Most Dream Theater songs, mostly from "Images And Words" qualify; Queensryche (Empire especially) as well ...

I like the Rain Song by Zeppelin, and I'm pretty sure it doesn't get thrashed on the radio like other Led Zep tracks, also One by Metallica. Both not 10 minutes though....

OK not bad, but I was expecting big things from you bagman. How about something post-rock and wall-of-soundish? You know anything long worth listening to?

Ugh. So many to choose from, that's why I went the easy route. Plus it's difficult to find songs actually 10+ minutes that I like.

Here are a few that are just under/about 10 minutes that are things I listen to with some frequency.

Vangelis - Blade Runner Blues (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SJVP4YAybs#lq-lq2)
Vangelis - Blade Runner Blues

The Fountain ( death is the road to awe ) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UOZuQ_r3ROY#lq-lq2-hq)
Clint Mansell - Death is the Road to Awe

The Only Moment We Were Alone. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzj-ksNOMfU#lq-lq2-hq)
Explosions in the Sky - The Only Moment We Were Alone

I have three incredible soundtracks on my iPod right now that you might like.

Sunshine
Friday Night Lights
The Fountain
