Epic Songs

[Carboncrown]

And here I tought this would be about funnily epic songs, oh well.

Die for Metal by Manowar and Holy Diver by Dio spring to mind.

These.

Also

 

[Disaster Button]

I can't believe nobody's mentioned Bohemian Rhapsody yet:

 

[Knight of Cydonia]

Through the fire and flames.Enough said.

 

[Casual Shinji]

Ode to Joy - Beethoven. In fact pretty much the whole 9th symphony

And he wrote the whole thing while he was going deaf.

Ludwig van was the f*cking man.

I realize I technically can't do this, but...

That's just one of those epic err... is "tracks" the right word?
The first thing that came to mind when i read the topic is skillet's whispers in the dark.
But the opening to eye of the tiger's also epic.

Dream theater - the count of tuscany

All 20 mins of it is beautiful. Usually I'd be bored after 5 mins, but this song is special.

The Mars Volta- Cassandra Gemini. I believe it's about 33 minutes long. Absolutely amazing.

 

[McNinja]

Mana(most songs off Sagas are pretty epic)-Equilibrium
Lost Reality, Hours that Remain, Redefine Me, (actually that entire album is epic) and possibly Firesoul-Mercenary

Hyperion by Throes of Dawn is really good, not as much epic as beautiful.

That's all I got for now.

 

[FallenRainbows]

...And Justice For All

Is playing now. And it's quite Epic so yeah.

 

[neoman10]

A Day in the Life - The Beatles

 

[dallan262]

boston - more than a feeling
journey - dont stop believin
kansas - carry on wayward son

and finally queen because of this :

My favourite has to be the first one, but The last one is also really great. The second is a beautiful piano tune, while the other two you just have to hear to experience their sheer awesomeness .

 

[funguy2121]

Sympathy for the Devil - The Rolling Stones

Whoo whoo!

 

[GodofDisaster]

It seems that every time a music thread comes up, I always post a J-pop song, well today things shall be different today...ah I'm only joking.


Ok, I'll post one more song that I think is epic.

 

[Caligulove]

ok this is not a "best song" thread it is about songs
that speak to a generation or make you want to do something
i suggest Renegades Of Funk by Rage Against The Machine it makes me think and i think it has a point
proceed..

Renegades of Funk was a cover, like all the other songs on that album they made. Still really good though

Spoiler: original

As for me, I would equate an epic song to something like "Battle of Evermore" or... well, I really equate it with long and, well, epic rock songs that really change what you think about rock or made the song seemed longer than it was.

 

[RobotNinja]

Anything by Iron Maiden

 

[Knife-28]

Navras by Juno Reactor.
It's the song at that plays during the Neo vs Smith battle in The Matrix Revoulutions.
The Day the Whole World Went Away by Nine Inch Nails is pretty epic.

 

[PandoraMagic]

still alive by GlaDos... i'm sorry but to me it is the most epic song i have ever heard in my life.

 

[Smagmuck_]

Slipknot = GoW2 = epicness

 

[Apocalypse Tank]

Battlefield American theme
