The price of freedom is eternal VigilanceI don't know if it counts, but "Stem/Long Stem"
by DJ Shadow is pretty epic.
Yes, I am.

Half-Life: Dual Nature, a crossover story of reasonably sized proportions.Dreams Of An Absolution~LB vs JS Remix
is the most amazing and beautiful song I've ever heard in my life.
Metal Epic: Dream Theater, "Pull Me Under"
Industrial Epic: Deathline Int'l, "Paradise City" or In Extremo, "Horizont"
Classic Rock Epic: Cream, "White Room"
Soundtrack Epic: The Rock, "Hummel Gets the Rockets" (A guy I know who was Special Forces in the 1990 Iraq war actually cried at the opening scene)
Goth Epic: Sisters of Mercy, "Temple of Love (1992 version)"
And of course the standbys: Stairway and Kashmir by Zep, Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen (it straddles - nay, tapdances- the line between epic and goofy in a way no one else can ever do).
And for sheer so-cheesy-its-epic, Europe, "The Final Countdown" and Erasure, "Always"
If I were to write some of the strange things that come under my eyes they would not be believed. ~Cora M. Strayer~I'll just list some of my favorites, though I'm sure I'm forgetting some.

Alright, so it's a bit more than a few... and I still feel like I'm missing stuff. The Sorcerer's Apprentice, Stravinsky's Rite of Spring, more Muse, the Beatles, Sheryl Crow, it's just too much.
