Oh I like that one, I dont know about longest but there's some some that make my ears bleed they're so awful, anything by the Pet Shop Boys is awful, terrible droning voice

The longest that springs to mind is the doors the end which is 11:41 long but it's a good song.

I do love Hey Jude but it does go on a bit too long.

I'm a post rock fan, so probably cheating for me to play. But longest song off the top of my head, Providence by Godspeed You Black Emperor. I believe it's half an hour. And it's quite creepy.

Anything by Whitney Houston is painful to my ears, can't bear the warbly screeching.

PuppyMonkey · 21/06/2019 14:05

Imagine is the dullest song ever imho.

Script for a Jester's Tear by Marillion. I do like the song but it is soooooo long.

Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick. I don't even know how long it is but it feels like a goddamn eternity.

Monster Magnet's '25 - tab', weighing in at 32:14. I believe there's a chord change every 8 minutes or so.

Stairway To Heaven. Hate hate hate. Gives me the rage.

Anything by Sam Smith is hard to Listen to.

ihadedto · 21/06/2019 15:02

Bohemian Rhapsody.
But I do like the Mike Myers (Wayne’s World) version.

Jsmith99 · 21/06/2019 15:03

My heart will go on by the awful Celine Dion feels like it goes on, and on and on interminably. It’s certainly painful to listen to.

ihadedto · 21/06/2019 15:03

Agree about Sam Smith. All I can hear is “but why can’t I have another bag of sweets?” Whining when I hear his voice.

Meatloaf's Paradise by the dashboard light It's especially long when sung by a very bad karaoke wannabe.

Girls just wanna have fun by Cyndi Lauper

Like nails on a blackboard

Bat out of Hell.

One, by Metallica.

Makes me want to scream

I was typing my post as you were posting spiteful

Froglette16 · 21/06/2019 15:08

Madonna's version of American Pie. Why fix what ain't broke?

BorderlineExperimental · 21/06/2019 15:12

I imagine if you don't enjoy the genre then 'Jerusalem' (52:08) or 'Dopesmoker' (63:31) by Sleep probably feel very, very long indeed Grin

Bryan Adams - Everything I Do, I Do It For You.

Fuck off.

Reminds me of being made to dance with my dad at a wedding, aged 13 (it was still at number one) and being so embarrassed
