I too voted "None of the above" as a protest, but at the non-inclusion of any modern-day epics.

Difficult choice but I had to go for Supper's Ready, the epitome of the prog epic. Although Tarkus has a special place in my heart as one of the very first songs which got me into prog at a very young age.

That probably would've gotten my vote but these sorts of polls aren't exactly comprehensive!
 
A poll about prog songs longer than 20 minutes doesn't need to be comprehensive to include "A Plague Of Lighthouse Keepers".
 
 
 
 
No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

From this list? The one with Winston Churchill dressed in drag. Tarkus fairly close.

From the unlisted, Magma's Theusz Haamtahk.

Excuse me not putting all you want but I just decided to include songs I Know and Like because I know what I like and like what I know, and I don't like Van Der Graaf, Modern Prog and Magma.

Yeah, nobody should take this too seriously. You can always start another poll if you can't stand the thought of your favorite track absent.

Write in candidate:
Duel With the Devil by Transatlantic

From the list, a tie between 2112 and Lizard. Had your Milesentry been Right Off from Jack Johnson, it would have been a three way tie.

Odd that neither Thick as a Brick or A Passion Play is included. Voted 'none' out of spite.

I happily voted for "Lizard".

Just to mention a couple of lesser-known ones:

Geinoh Yamashirogumi's "Osorezan". Actually, it's 19:55, but I made a cut with added screaming. Just kidding, but I do have a live version that is longer.

And Bjorn J:son Lindh's "Musik frĺn en storstad" (21:48).

Much as I like "Echoes", my favourite long one from Pink Floyd is the "Atom Heart Mother" suite.

Edited this garbled post -- just lack of sleep, I hope.
