On Comedy Central on repeat there was a standup set where he described a song that the drums didn’t kick in until the 18 minute mark. That maybe joke has been playing in my head for 20 years.

I love that joke too. It’s Marc Maron, 1:30 in this clip (from Dr. Katz)

Started to post classical music but decided it was too annoying with too little payoff

Yeah I specifically left out classical because it’s too easy to find ten million examples of longer compositions

There’s a (17 minute) C64 song that I’ve been waiting years for someone to post in a format that can be easily shared. It’s “Delusion” by Kjell Nordbø. It’s the 15th track on this music disk, which Nordbø mailed to a friend in 2005 just before taking his own life.

I ripped the song to MP3 ages ago for convenience and I should probably just put it on YouTube myself since no one else seems to be doing so. It’s really something.
