    The Cure - One Hundred Years

    Listening to any song for 6 minutes is a struggle........but you're really taking the piss with this one.
    Taking the piss? No.... Just to each his own. I'm sure many Cure fans would agree with me though.

    Mansun are a good shout. Six, Being a Girl and Legacy from that album are grand too!
    Absolutely! Six is such an under-rated album. 
    Sorry Jessie......it was an (obviously bad) attempt at a joke about how 100 years was excruciatingly more than 6 minutes.
  • Comfortably Numb.....Floyd....(Pulse Live Version).
    The House of The Rising Sun.......The Animals.
    Starship Trooper......Yes.
    Kashmir......Zeppelin.
    Stationary Traveller.....Camel......Pressure Points (Live Hammersmith Odeon version).
    A Special mention for......Summer Breeze....The Isley Brothers.....(Album version ONLY, which includes Ernie’s amazing guitar solo)!
    i would have chosen House of the Rising Sun, but it's under 6 mins.
    Same reason I had to ditch Gimme Shelter, Moonlight Mile, Shangri La, Lovely on the Water & others
  • Budgie - Breadfan
    Funkadelic - Maggot Brain
  • Comfortably Numb.....Floyd....(Pulse Live Version).
    The House of The Rising Sun.......The Animals.

    Is it really.......I thought the original version was about 8 mins?

    Probably seemed like it at the time, as back then many of the hits of the day were coming in at under 2 minutes!
    I think HOTRS may have been the first to break the 4 minutes barrier.
  • Another man's woman - Supertramp
  • Water No Get Enemy by Fela Kuti - and that's one of his shorter songs!
  • Dillinger Escape Plan - Mouth of Ghosts
    Ef - Hello Scotland
    MONO - Yearning
    InMe - Master Storm (it falls 20 seconds short but sod it)
    Rolo Tomassi - A Flood of Light
