Songs that Need to Be Longer

[Boilermaker]

I hate it when a song is perfect, except you just want it to go maybe a minute longer. What songs are like that for you?

Elvis Costello - Welcome to the Working Week (1:23)
Elvis Costello - Mystery Dance (1:38)
Angry Samoans - Right Side of My Mind (2:09)
They Might Be Giants - Dig My Grave (1:08)

I'd love for Kyuss - Whitewater to be longer, but 8 minutes is perfect

Ulver - Operator maybe

[Geography]

Sonic Youth - "Pocketful of Sen-Sen"

[YDload]

Melvins- Spread Eagle Beagle

i think something could have really developed if they just gave it a little more time

ampere need to do longer songs

[tom79]

Great song, but only 1:50.

[YDload]

I think I'm ok with most supershort punk songs. Except that Wire song.

most of their songs are just as long as they need to be, but i think "Brazil" is really great and it could use another section to it.

also, just found this out:

Scratch Acid - Monsters

its like the best song and its only 1:19! in fact, so far it seems like all their best songs are under two and a half minutes.

[Syncratic]

Knife Prty-Deftones
KimDracula-Deftones
The New Black-Every Time I Die
Art is Hard-Cursive
Grinning Mouths-ISIS
