I had a buddy who would go to the juke box and play the Doors' "Riders on the storm" -extended version- about 7 times before he left the bar. That's like an hour and a half of the same song.
I always liked "MacArthur Park"!! joking....jokng!! I thought if I was told I had 8 minutes to live, that would be my last request....It would seem like I was given another dayy!
The Roads to Moscow by Al Stewart; the best long song and also the best Al Stewart song:

I'm not going to claim either is the greatest long song ever, but there is no way there are 100 songs better than Rush's 2112 or Xanadu.
Nothing from Dave Mathews can be considered the best.
Listen to it. Warren Haynes is singing and it is not a DMB song. Unbelievable.
But I'll meet you at fight bar
You can buy the first round.
