"Untitled (a.k.a. Track 13)," Queen Length:22:32
This was a hidden track from the posthumously released album Made in Heaven. It is officially Queen's longest song, taking up an entire side of the recent vinyl rerelease (until then, it had only appeared on the original CD). It is quite unlike any other Queen song; it is an ambient track, with each minute of the song representing a chapter from Queen's history between 1973 and 1995.

"Love Machine," The Miracles Length:6:52
The album version of this song, with parts 1 and 2, is 6 minutes and 52 seconds long. The single version is only 2 minutes and 55 seconds long. On some pressings of the 7" version, Part 1 appears on one side and Part 2 appears on the other side. The album version of the song also appeared in a 7" version, b/w "The Love I Saw In You Was Just A Mirage." The cover of "Love Machine" performed by Wham! is 3 minutes and 22 seconds long.
Jennifer Hate Hewitt
"Fairy Tales," Anita Baker Length:7:55
This was probably the longest Anita Baker song ever recorded. The outro is long and repetitive, and, I might add, boring. The single edit is only 4 minutes and 16 seconds long.

"Love Me Just A Little (Sometime)," Atlanta Rhythm Section Length:6:06
This was probably the longest ARS song ever recorded. The outro is long and boring, and I might add, depressing, as they play the same chords over and over and over again.

"Slow Ride," Foghat Length:8:14 (LP version)
The album version of this song is 8 minutes and 14 seconds long. The album version gradually gets faster in tempo and towards the end, the song plays really fast! The single version, which is only 3 minutes and 56 seconds long, and fades off while the band sings "Slow ride, easy, slow ride, sleazy."

"Foreplay/Long Time," Boston Length:7:47
Appropriately named. The slash may make it look like two songs, but it's a single track and gets radio airplay (on oldies stations) in its entirety.
