A post on Xitter asked
"What is your favourite song that is over 8 minutes long?" Finding the answer took me less than 8 nano seconds. The only piece of music I have listened more than this one is Beethoven's 9th, which also has a 'song' of a similar length. πŸ˜€

Want to take a journey today? My song "Withernsea" is an epic #prog #pop #folktale about forbidden love in a fictional medieval version of the coastal British city.

It's inspired by the long-form songs of late period #Genesis and early Tori Amos especially.

The song features Kristina Paulick on vocals and a killer guitar solo by Elevate the Sky.

I am planning in the long run to carry out a structural analysis of what makes a long song still recognizable.
