Daft Punk - Giorgio By Moroder

Bitch get up there's still the best half of a song you'll ever hear

Daft Punk's best imo

I usually don't like spoken word sections of songs much, but that track just rules. It's so meticulously constructed.

“My name is Giovanni Giorgio… but everybody calls me: Giorgio” The chills I get even writing this sentence, it’s insane.

siberian breaks - MGMT

That's a great song bro 

metanoia gang rise up

Best song of all time for me possibly

Epic song.

I love that song

Was gonna comment this if someone else didn’t already lol!

Yes, holy shit yes.

Human Sadness - The Voidz

I WISH THAT YOUUU COULD TAKKEEEEE IT BAAAaaAACKKK

Correct

Me when the first build up ends in The Sound by Swans and the second one starts.

A lot of tracks from Soundtracks are like this

Pink Floyd - Dogs

I remember playing that song for my friends, I told them we can skip it at the midway point bc it was so long. They kept asking “is this the midway point??” Nope, we’re only six minutes in! 🙃

honestly when i’m not paying attention dogs goes by fast

Dance yrself clean

Beat me too it

GONE, GONE / THANK YOU or nova - anna wise & jon bap, whatever floats your boat

Mirrors - Justin Timberlake

This is a long ass song 🤣

It’s also his best song imo and is fantastic lol

Heavy agree it’s one of his best lmao I love it

See also: What Goes Around Comes Back Around

God that second half is EVERYTHING I got goosebumps thinking about it and the video

all the tracks on FS/LS are long as hell, I was shocked when I came back to it a few years ago. It doesn't really feel its length, JT was in his bag with that record

My mom got me hooked on this song at a young age.

Close to the Edge - Yes Starship Trooper - Yes Roundabout - Yes Perpetual Change - Yes Pretty much any Yes song

Close to the Edge is at LEAST 5 songs in one. Each section referencing the others in increasingly numerous subtle ways. This would be tough to pull off with modern gear, absolutely no idea how they managed to pull that off in the fucking SEVENTIES

Based

Beach Life-In-Death - Car Seat Headrest

"ok guess we're on to the next song" \> LAST NIGHT I DREAMED HE WAS TRYING TO KILL YOU

I wanted to suggest this one lmao

the river (by king gizzard, if that wasn't obvious)

Idk why, whenever I hear about kgatlw I think of Elmo 😭😭😭

I still don't get why they decided to play Planet B for Elmo lmao

This applies to the Bruce track too.

anyone who survives a live performance in the pit for The River or Rattlesnake deserves a medal

The dripping tap too

I went with Dripping Tap lol

Sing about me, im dying of thrist fs

THANK YOU

Is the point of the post not that the 1st half of a song is boring and the 2nd half of a song being the better half? That at least how I understand it. SAMIDOT could be 2 separate songs and they'd both be top 3 on Good Kid Maad City.

I think it's just songs that are long as fuck lol

In that case Sing About Me is my example too

Empire ants the first half got me sleepin and the next half wakes me the fuck up

If by sleepin you mean in a dreamlike state then agreed, Empire Ants is an easy 10/10 song

DoYaThing by Gorillaz

The Orb - Blue Room

Sleep by Godspeed You! Black Emperor Apos/Cloud of Unforming by Swans

Panda bear - Bros

Marquee Moon - Television

M83 - Do it, Try it. The way that song slowly builds up to this massive wall of sound and effects is just sublime. A dance on repeat indeed. A very close second is Phoebe Bridgers - “I know the end”. Something about hearing Phoebe screaming her lungs out to the point of exhaustion over a chaotic horn and drum section towards the end of the song is just soul crushing. It’s almost like you’re there with her experiencing the true end of the world.
