Probably been done before but thought this would be fun.

Name any song you feel is epic and tell why.

Off the top of my head I would have to say "I remember you" by Skid Row.

In my collection, probably White Walls by Between the Buried and Me. 14 minutes, takes many twists and turns with always a constant sense of build-up, to where there's about a minute of just repeating "get out of this closed off circle" in a really foreboding way, until the crushing riffs and grows resume with probably one of my favorite solos

If not that then maybe The Last Baron by Mastodon, or Lateralus/Parabola by Tool

Grr too many :P

Great Choice =0
I would have to pick either
Dream place - Galneryus, simply because I think its awesome, though many may not think the same because its japanese power metal lol
and maybe
Entombment of a Machine - Job for a Cowboy
possibly even
Inner Universe - Yoko Kanno or A few of the Gundam Seed openings.. lol, too many songs considerably epic.

Really? That is actually interesting...and a little sad...:P

As for me, they might not be my favorite songs but they are epic non the less and those songs are...

The Sprawl or Cross the Breeze- Sonic Youth

These songs are legendary classics that are epic because of how advance and amazing they were for its time.

or

Quiet-The Smashing Pumpkins

This song is alternative confined into one song. The drumming and the guitar are so well crafted, its just an amazing piece of music.

  • Shine On You Crazy Diamond
  • Achilles Last Stand
  • Battle of Evermore
  • When the Levee Breaks

Well the most epic opening for sure belongs to Stabbing The Drama by Soilwork. Most epic overall... I'll have to get back on that one.

The original, non-choir Serenata is much better. I'm shocked that Immediate Music have only been mentioned twice... OT doesn't seem to know what epic means.

As well as Immediate Music, I'm going to add Two Steps From Hell, Globus, Future World Music and E S Posthumus. Unbeatable, as far as epicness is concerned.

Bohemian Rhapsody for sure, Freddie Mercury was one of the best vocalists/performers of all time IMO. He just put a lot of emotion in his singing and performing, and it showed. RIP Farrokh.

For some reason, "Cygnus X-1" by Rush was the first song to come to mind.
