Extended version last night, was probably best song. Can't think of any songs that would be better if shortened, but I like when bands extend songs during live performances. (i.e., Pearl Jam Even Flow or Porch back in the day so Eddie could climb the rafters)

Agreed, but probably only about 30-45 seconds too long.

Disagree. That jam at the end is the best part of the song.


You Enjoy Myself - I love the first 10 minutes of it, but get really bored with it when Trey starts making weird noises in the mic.

Hey Jude

Love all those songs. Carry the Zero and Teenage Riot are both top 10 all-time. Carry the Zero is absolutely perfect in my mind and I wouldn't change anything. I guess Teenage Riot could lose some of the minute intro.

I could definitely chop some off the end of Conventional Wisdom.

Cool, not looking for agreement-just opinions/discussion.

You Enjoy Myself would be better without the vocal jam. And any other song where Trey holds a note, or a moment of silence, WAAAAY too long.

Anything by:

Rick Astley
Maroon 5
Blake Shelton
Lifehouse
Most current rap

All by the length of their songs.

Moby Dick. Especially the live version. Led Zeppelin is one of my favorite bands and Bonham is a monster drummer but come on. The solo could be cut down by probably 80% and be far more effective.

Shine on You Crazy Diamond cannot support its 20-plus minute run time. Even cut on to two different sides of the record.

Every prog song ever recorded except Roundabout.
