The two I can think of from the top of my head are Ode to Joy by Beethoven and Stairway to Heaven =)
The rest you should research.
Ode2Joy=2:00:00hrs
stairway to heaven=10 minutes

I can think of 3 very long songs that were released in the 1970's
Thick as a Brick....By Jethro Tull (2 whole sides of an LP Record)
Inna Gada Da Vida....By Iron Butterfly (28 Minutes long...and later covered by Slayer)
MacArthur Park....By actor Richard Harris( He was in one of the Harry Potter movies)
Probably Bohemian Rhapsody (Queen), although if November Rain (Guns n Roses) got there I think it would be that.
Novenber Rain, at 8:55, is the longest to reach the singles top ten. It reached #3 in the U.S.
Wasn't It eith "American Pie", or "American Trilogy"? That's all I can remember. Hope that it helps. could be "One" by metallica
American Pie by Don McLean
(November rain) by guns and roses

The song that is playing when the guys are playing football in the mud in The Longest Yard remake from 2005 is Have You Ever Seen The Rain. The song was written by John Fogerty and recorded by Creedence Clearwater Revival in 1971.
2 minutes 5 seconds........... just kidding no idea
Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding - 11 minutes
Probably Hangar 18 by Megadeth... It's by the BEST BAND EVER!!!!
The Beatles held the record for the longest time with a song reaching number 1 on the charts with "I Want to Hold Your Hand" staying at the top for 7 weeks in 1964.
