Songs which never seem to kick off. You wait for the real start and it doesn't come. Those songs may be the best as they do not sell themselves immediately. Classic example: Stairway to Heaven. Building up to the sky and exploding at the doors of heaven.

There was a 10+ live version of "Purple Rain where" it took Prince about five minutes to start singing. The slow building up of the guitar riff. So funky.

Gastr Del Sol's *album* Camofleur doesn't get going until the last 1.5 minutes (this is probably harsh)

Orbital - The Box (single version)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cONv26K0vL8

28 minutes long but it takes 21 minutes for the vocals to kick in and an additional 2 minutes for the proper 'song' to begin

Mott the Hoople - The Journey

Love how this rises and falls like it's going to stay within a Dylanesque plan for the first half, satisfyingly so, then...
