I'm pretty sure I have a version of Baba O'Riley by The Who about 12 mins long.
I've just Googled it. Apparently it was originally 30 mins long!
Fantastic tune! |

There and to the left a bit |
Not quite 10 minutes - but clocking in at 9 minutes 42 seconds is The Liberty Of Norton Folgate by Madness - which for a band written off as producers of 3 minute pop songs with funny videos is quite an achievement |

Take your pick with Neil Young, but Ordinary People gets a mention at eighteen minutes. There's a song on one of his later albums that clocks in at twenty seven! Can't remember the title because I don't have twenty seven minutes of my life to spare on a single song. |

Queen, Bohemian Rhapsody - not sure it is ten minutes but was once the longest song ever played. Almost got the chopping board because it was too long.
What a tragedy that would have been. |

"Tim Blake...Blake's New Jerusalem at 39.26 has to be a contender. Having a listen now and dreamy memories come flooding back."
I'm fairly sure The Orb- The Blue Room wins at 39.57 minutes in one iteration, as i seem to remember they looked at what the maximum length was allowable to classify as a single and hit it almost spot on  |

"Some great tracks mentioned on ere,but does anyone know what the longest track of all time is? Echoes by Pink Floyd has to be a good shout as it did fill the whole side of an album."
Just googled it and here is the answer:
The Guinness Book of World Records states that The Devil Glitch, a 69-minute song containing over 500 verses, is the longest pop song ever recorded. It entered the record books in July of 1997.
Not a song I've listened to! |

This one is cheating a bit, but.....
I have, I am the beat by The Look on vinyl from the 80's.
It has a loop at the end of the record so it keeps repeating the last few seconds as they sing 'the beat'
It doesn't stop until you remove the needle from the record.
The longest playing record of all time?Do I win? Lol |

It still has a long way to go to beat the classical and avant garde genres.
Max Richter composed an 8 hour piece, designed to be listened to as you sleep (and played out in full a few years ago by Radio 3 IIRC)
John Cage currently has his piece for organ which has been playing for quite a few years now on an automated installation- but is barely started on its 600+ year duration  |

You're correct it was under 10 minutes and yes it's a class song.
