Ah, VEGANGELICA again making an epic post.

First of all, I didn't realize Anthrax covered "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" or that the original has a 17-minute version. Yikes, don't like the former and won't even try the latter.

Form is an important issue. I didn't even know the term "musical form," but I figured that my two super-long favorites ("November Rain" and "Estranged") are structured differently from normal songs. Cyclical form?

By the way, another good long song, also with strings - "All I Want is You," by U2.
