Long songs, and why they are delectable

    This is a follow up from my post on sunday.


           I was just halfway through mountain jam by the Allman brothers band, the first 18 minutes were pretty good.  
         Greetings, followers. today we delve into the expansive universe of songs that are longer than most people have the patients to listen to. Yesterday, I posted the 19 minute epic, grand deign, the link is in the last post, I personally doubt all of my views paid heed to all 19 minutes of musical goodness. Patience is a virtue that many lack in this ever hastening society we found forced upon us at birth. Personally, I like to test my patience, which sometimes to be volatile, listening to songs that require strong concentration to understand.
        The longest song in human history(long player) is little over a hundredth the way through. It has currently been playing since the turn of he millennium, however, it wont repeat itself till the year three thousand, but personally it is dull to listen too. It is sort of an ambiance, lacking theme or melody. Guinness may consider it a song, but I consider it an expansive art form.

The set of long player.

    But than, what is a "song". song, sang, sing. Does a song require singing? if so, Hurst's epic 44 minute contemporary classical composition, "the planets" is not considered a song. By that matter, nor is mountain jam.
     For that reason, I have divided art in the form of sound into two huge overlapping categories, auditory art, and melodic auditory art. Pretty self explanatory. For example, the beatles's revolution #9 fits into the category of auditory art.
     Sorry, for that sort of vsauce style departure from the topic.

    It bothers me that when confronted with led zeppelins stairway to heaven, most of the students in my grade cower. Lacking both the courage and open mindedness to accept that in comparison of other songs, it is not too lengthy, they claim that they will never listen to the full song because they have no time.
     I find long songs to be better than short songs, because the limiting factors of time are all but disbanded, free bird can have a 7 minute long guitar solo, and something in the way by nirvana can have ten minutes of silence in the middle of it. There can be nine parts to shine on you crazy diamond, and Robert fripp can experiment however much he wishes in moon child.
   Normally a to fit more lyrics in a song, nowadays, they are merely rapped for effiency. however, a whole story of really depressing crap are sung in most long pieces of auditory art. Also the comment wars below are more funny, if you listen on youtube.   
    Another hipster factor of long songs, it splitting songs into different parts, I.e neutral milk hotel's king of carrot flowers. It has a ring to it, _________________ pt VII. (hipster rule # 480: use the roman numeral system.
