you can't argue with any of these.  The first two are basically the definition of "epic", One Winged Angel...well...it's kinda like the first two but with awesome guitars and SEPHIROTH!, and Pompeii, along with everything else ES Posthumus made, wins majorly.

^^^every Dragonforce song sounds the same imo

Anyways, here's what I consider the main elements of epic songs:
-Somewhat progressive
-Generally long
-Songs that you don't get bored with easily
-At the end you generally think 'dang, that was awesome'
-Usually contain elements of a ballad
-Sometimes include piano or acoustic guitar

Here's some songs I consider f***IN' EPIK.
2112 (Rush)
Stranglehold (Ted Nugent)
Voodoo Child Slight Return (Jimi Hendrix)
Coma (Guns N' Roses)
Stairway To Heaven (Led Zeppelin)
Achilles Last Stand (Led Zeppelin)
One (Metallica)
Black Hole Sun (Soundgarden)
War Pigs (Black Sabbath)
Foreplay/Long Time (Boston)
The Number of the Beast (Iron Maiden)
One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer (George Thorogood)
White Room (Cream)
Sympathy For The Devil (Rolling Stones)
Brain Damage/Eclipse (Pink Floyd)
Hey Jude (The Beatles)
House of the Rising Sun (Geordie)
(^^Yeah, it's known for The Animals' version, but listen to Geordie's, it's much better)

And the two lists above were actually copied and pasted from another post of mine, on another forum. In a topic about epic songs.

YEAH!!!!

Also needs "Flight of icarus" and "Hitch a ride" By Iron maiden and Boston. ;D

Considering that by musical standards, an "epic" song usually is rather long, amazingly famous, and changes regularly in dynamics while building up to a huge climax, "Stairway to Heaven" is basically still the standard. It's what started the whole format.

I'm not saying that's their best song (Ten Years Gone has that position, in my opinion), but still.

Jeezus, none of you have mentioned American Pie thus far. Such barbarians you are. :(

Oh noes how could I forget American Pie; please forgive me for my sin. :(

Because it's boring and massively overrated.

Stairway to Heaven by Led Zepplin. :)

Spell their intercourse ing name right.

All of those describe Cassandra Gemini.
LISTEN.
GO.
Not sure where you'll find it, but...::)

olol, the place I got the 32:32 track from is gone now, so I don't even know where to get it anymore...besides my computer ::)

Alive 2007 ~ Daft Punk (I made it a song, so there. >:()

Except your version left out the encore, not flawless movement, and Vegoose show was better than the Bercy show.

A FUCKING SONG ABOUT SEPHIROTH IS NOT THE MOST EPIC SONG EVER.

Seriously, if you only really care for songs you hear in your video games, you're not an expert on music.

Pompeii? O-Fortuna? Requiem for a dream?
And the version of One winged Angel i'm talking about is from the movie, not game. :|

[major tom]

It's a FINAL FANTASY MOVIE. A movie about a video game. Technically it's a video game song. It's about Sephiroth.
