Let's not forget the guilty pleasure of Meatloaf's "Bat Out Of Hell" (9:48) and "Paradise By The Dashboard Light" (8:28).

The Hub just introduced me to the full version of New Order's "Elegia" at 17:31. In full 192kbps glory, that's 24.1mb. More importantly, it's part of the 5th bonus CD that didn't come with my recent Retro box set christmas gift - thanks dudes!

Siouxsie and the Banshees "The Lord's Prayer" seems to go on forever, as well as "Bela Lugosi's Dead" by Bauhaus.
