Bob Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone" runs 6:13. It was a big breakthrough when the song got radio play and became a hit, as many stations refused to play songs much longer than 3 minutes. It was also rare for a song with so many lyrics to do well commercially.

Grass Roots "Midnight Confession"
Interesting video showing the band playing in 1968 and then playing many years later.

"Midnight Confessions" was made famous by American rock band The Grass Roots, who released the song as a single in 1968. It became the band's biggest charting hit on the Billboard Hot 100, reaching the Top 5 of both the U.S. and Canadian pop singles charts.
The lyrics describe a man who is infatuated with a married woman, knows he can never have her, and is relegated to confessing his love for her audibly, but alone.
