They're alright in small doses. My ideal songs are at least 5 minutes in length but a 8,9,10 minute isn't too bad. My favorite longer song has got to be one of these:

Yes, very much.

Being a post-rock lover most of my computer has songs +5 minutes long with the longest song being 30 minutes.[footnote]http://www.last.fm/music/Equus/Eutheria/Hyracotherium[/footnote]

Here are a couple of my favourite songs:




I love my songs to have lots of build ups and amazing explosions of sound in them, those can only be accomplished by long songs really.

I hate long songs. I get bored. If you asked any of my friends they'd tell you that i reach maybe halfway through songs that're 8+ minutes long, then skip them.

The only time I can tolerate "long songs" is if it's in the style of Enter Shikari's album Take To The Skies. The album, when listened to in order, sounds like it's one big song, but it still does sound like seperate songs, because they vary wildly from each other but still fit together in a seamless way...

Edit: Longest song I like is Borgore - Gorestep's Most Hated. It's 43 minutes long... It's still technically one song but it's similar to Enter Shikari's album in that the different parts are very distinctly different.
