The single best song in the universe!!!

[tangerine911S]

Change of Seasons - Dream Theater

If you have never heard this song, I suggest you sit down and take the 25 minutes necessary to enjoy it in its entirety.

Any other rediculously awesome mamajams out there?

it's a world of laughter, a world or tears
its a world of hopes, its a world of fear
theres so much that we share
that its time we're aware
its a small world after all

CHORUS:
its a small world after all
its a small world after all
its a small world after all
its a small, small world

There is just one moon and one golden sun
And a smile means friendship to everyone.
Though the mountains divide
And the oceans are wide
It's a small small world

(chorus)

[IROC]

I always come back to "Time" by Pink Floyd. The maturity and musicianship on Dark Side of the Moon was just unbelievable.

[SlowToady]

Search YouTube for "Eric Clapton Buddy Guy live." It's called like, Chicken Head Jam or something. It's awesome.

[sammyg2]

Seriously, I just listened to about 4 minutes of it and yawned.
I heard what looked like a bunch of very talented studio musicians jamming together, technically very sound, but where's the song? I heard improv but no song. Maybe I didn't listen long enough to get past the intro

Thanks for that! It should leave my brain in about a week.

Heh, I'm sitting here listening to Octavarium when I opened this thread. Change of Seasons is ok, but they've matured a lot since then. Check out "Home" from Metropolis Part II: Scenes from a Memory. Concept album with a lot of hits and misses, but that track is a standout.

If you like art rock "epics", then I can recommend some of my favorites:
Yes, "Close to the Edge", "South Side of the Sky", "Gates of Delirium", and "Awaken".

also, Liquid Tension Experiment (a Dream Theater project/offshoot) is amazing.

King Crimson's "Epitaph" is really good too, not nearly as long though.

That's a good one.

Change of Seasons - Dream Theater

Not my cup of tea, first time and hopefully last I hear it. It just seems to repetitive for my taste.

My favorite long rock song has to be Led Zep http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89yw7wqoaio&feature=related , but I have a soft spot for http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzjOzjoF8Yg .

You gotta listen to the whole thing, not just hear it. Ya the intro is long, the middle is long, and the end is long. Its a long song but there are some very good parts to it. I didnt think much of it either my first time hearing it.

Pink Floyd...Offical Band of the Big Bang.

[Oh Haha]

Yes, Dream Theater is a group of "studio" musicians but they are extremely talented and very versed in music composition. Mike Portnoy is one he!! of a drummer.

I don't care for everything they've done but they do send chills up/down the ol' spine on most of their stuff.

Avenged Sevenfold is another newer group that is talented.

[Heel n Toe]

All bow to the incomparable Tommy Seebach Band creating music video magic.

Turn it up.

Not as 'deep' but Abbey Road contains so much goodness I can only imagine Floyd and Zep being comparable.
