Welcome to the forum.

This probably already has multiple threads on this exact topic, so that is probably why you aren't getting a response.

Here's a typically prog-lovers/epic-lovers list...(and in no real order, because that would take a lot of time to figure out...)
A Change Of Seasons
Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulence
Octavarium
The Count Of Tuscany
Illumination Theory
In The Presence Of Enemies
In The Name Of God
Trial Of Tears
Home
Learning To Live

Yeah, I love the long songs. I blame my love for bands like Yes, The Flower Kings and Spock's Beard/Neal Morse for that, but for me, DT's longer tracks/epics are some of their best pieces, with some amazing performances from the whole band.

No reason not to like it.  It is pretty good.  It's just not a song.

are you pointing out that it is just a part of SDOIT? If so, I prefer to look at that separately, because there are some "songs" in it that I do not like so much....

It's hard not to put together a list, but I'm trying to resist as I want to do a top 30/50 list at some point on this forum  :-X

I think it would contain a mix of favorites from my top 4 albums (Awake, sfam, sdoit, iaw)
