Hello community! I'm curious about what y'all favorite long tracks are? By long I mean 10+ minutes (that is at least long to me with short attention span normally). For me it's The Past Is A Grotesque Animal by Of Montreal (linked)

Edit: Thanks for the responses!!! looks like I have a lot to listen to these next few days

Perhaps you didn't think of classical music per se, but this is one of my favorite pieces of music, from Mahler's "Tragic" symphony, written during a rather good period of his life if memory serves. He also didn't call it "tragic himself" I believe. Just a beautiful movement that stands on its own.

You're right, I didn't consider classical music. But I do have a ton of respect for it even though I don't listen to it much anymore. I love the way it can tell a story without a single word.
