A couple of long songs I'm aware of off the top of my head would be:

 

1. Gargoyles, Angels of Darkness by Rhapsody. (19:02)

2. The Odyssey by Symphony X. (24:14)

3. Art of Life by X-japan. (about 30 minutes - the live version of it is 34:07)

4. And Then There Was Silence by Blind Guardian (14:07)

 

I could list a bunch of songs by Dream Theater that border on the 10min mark.

 

But then these probably aren't very mainstream bands either.

Rush is good, saw them last weekend in San Antonio.

 

17:18 Carve That Possum by Southern Culture on the Skids

 

13:40 Welcome to the Pleasure Dome by Frankie Goes to Hollywood

 

11:43 Principles of Lust by Enigma

 

10:55 This Corrosion by The Sisters of Mercy (other good songs > 7 minutes, Dominion/Mother Russia, Vision Thing, Temple of Love, More & Lucretia My Reflection )

 

10:32 Back to the Rivers of Belief by Enigma (on same album as PoL)

Thanks for the long song comments, keep 'em coming.

I have "Octavarium" and "In the Presence of Enemies" by Dream Theater.

If you're interested, there's a whole page that lists over 700 long songs on the DPRP Long Songs List, one of my favorite websites, even though they omit some I have. I've tried to tell them, but they won't add them to the list. Oh well.

Many CD players (not just slot loaders) have problems with mini-CDs. The lower rotational momentum throws the linear velocity correction circuit off. Putting an expansion ring on the mini-CD helps, but I've had them pop off and jam the player.
