| 10 Favorites Songs Over 10 Minutes
Songs that fly by as if they're short. | 10 | | Kate Bush 50 Words for Snow
"Lake Tahoe" - 11:11
A sad piano ballad about a woman who loses her dog. The dog dies, but the dog finds her again in the afterlife. :( | 9 | | The Velvet Underground White Light/White Heat
"Sister Ray" - 17:27
Noisy, bluesy, dirty, and certainly a discography highlight. It was apparently done in only 1 take and about an orgy. Nice. | 8 | | Erykah Badu New Amerykah Part Two: Return of the Ankh
"Out of Mind, Just in Time" - 10:22
This song is all over the place and changes a lot. I guess that makes it kind of proggy? I like the effects on her voice and the emotion she puts forth a lot. | 7 | | Stereolab Dots and Loops
"Refractions in the Plastic Pulse" - 17:33
Imagine having a 17-minute song with only 3 lines of lyrics repeated over and over a bunch of different ways? Sounds like a disaster, but Stereolab makes it work amazingly. | 6 | | Fela Kuti Zombie
"Zombie" - 12:26
A song about how the Nigerian military obeys authority like zombies. This song got his mother murdered and it's damn funky. Powerful, political, and catchy is a dangerous combo. | 5 | | Robovine How to Start a Business
"How to Start a Business" - 10:08
Like weird modern psych stuff? Do yourself a favor. It's a humorous and snarky rant about the art/music industry. Lots of colorful synths, trumpets, and bass here too. | 4 | | David Bowie Station to Station
"Station to Station" - 10:08
Bowie doing arty proggy stuff on his best 70s album. Drugs, power, the European canon, it's all here! | 3 | | Mercury Rev Boces
"Meth of a Rockette's Kick" - 10:30
Really pretty orchestral neo-psychedelia. Lots of feedback and strong imagery about who knows what. It's very 90s. | 2 | | Parliament Funkentelechy Vs. the Placebo Syndrome
"Sir Nose D'Voidoffunk (Pay Attention - B3M)" - 10:10
The best Parliament song. The bassline is infectious, the vocals are strange and intense. It's all about an alien who refuses to dance. And there are some nursery rhymes thrown in because why not? | 1 | | Can Tago Mago
"Halleluhwah" - 18:28
Pretty sure this is in my top 5 songs of all time. Those drums are consistently engaging and repetitively rhythmic. The way he says "Halleluhwah" towards the end is such an awesome and fun climax. and Yeah lots of psych guitar noodling, and pulsing bass guitar. What's not to love? | |

01.20.21 | Surprisingly no Zappa, and not much prog, but I mean Lizard's t/t was close to making the list... | ArsMoriendi
01.20.21 | @sach: Not even Fela Kuti? | Pheromone
01.20.21 | great list feature dis | Pheromone
01.20.21 | had a think as to some of mine
Wipers - Youth Of America
HANL - Earthmover
Thee Silver - Fuck Off Get Free (t/t)
Les Rallizes Denudes - Night of the Assasins
Matt Elliott - The Kursk
i got bored they are my top 5 (maybe) | Jethro42
01.21.21 | It's hard to regroup only 10 songs. As a proghead, I find there are lots of missing great songs over 10 minutes. | ArsMoriendi
01.21.21 | More people should be into 5. | lz41
01.21.21 | Sister Ray changes you! | Squiggly
01.21.21 | Spiritualized - Cop Shoot Cop
Good list | Pangea
01.21.21 | Agreed with 4, definitely up there for me as well | dedex
01.21.21 | was expecting Zombie and wasn't disappointed | widowslaugh123
01.21.21 | List should just be 10 of the best fela tracks | Trifolium
01.21.21 | Some good stuff here! Love 1 too yes hmmmm. And 7 and 10 of course. | JohnnyoftheWell
01.21.21 | Did you choose 10 songs because the threshold is 10 minutes, or 10 minutes because the limit was 10 songs or is there no link please reveal or I will be unable to sleep :[ | Pheromone
01.21.21 | yes | ArsMoriendi
01.21.21 | @Johnny: the idea for 10 min+ songs came first, the number of songs I'd pick came second | evilford
01.21.21 | 4 is based af | evilford
01.21.21 | Check YOB |
