Most epic song!

[MDV]

I didnt really have a defintion in mind, but to me its a song that sounds sort of big and grand and sweeping.

Epic and sweeping...

Pretentious and annoying.

Orion is epic though!

For most epic I think I'd have to choose:

Extra raving fantasy Tolkein bonus points in this live video for Jimmy Page actually looking just like Gollum.

Gossamer by the mighty Smashing Pumpkins surely qualifies for this:

Absolute highlight of the "If All Goes Wrong" DVD.  and people had the NERVE to leave during this song when they did the Filmore residency in 2007.  Maybe there wasn't enough talk of rats in cages for those people.  Probably my favourite thing the Pumpkins have done since Billy resurrected the band in 2007 with a new line-up.  Up there with the Mellon Collie-era versions of "Silverf***".

Of course :) The track that invented epicness IMO.

I'll add this to the mix: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjQ6no6PUm0

I'll add these guys to the mix, who I actually though were the other guys the first time I heard them http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0FjGFayAAE lol that the whole track (all 3 parts) doesn't fit in a youtube clip

[MDV]

Its long, and at least parts of it are better than I remember scar symmetry being

But its not epic.

[MrBump]

To fully qualify as epic, one has to make use of uilleann pipes:

Oh, and the video has to be REALLY naff, and contain Nasir from Robin of Sherwood.

Mark.
