So I just watched the episode of How I Met Your Mother that features the "I would walk 500 miles" song (whose actual name evidently is "I wanna be" but I'm gonna keep calling it the name I always have). I just listened to the song something like 10 times, and am still not sick of it per se, but I find myself desperately craving a version of the song that is about 9 minutes long and manages to keep getting more and more epic as it goes on.

Does anyone know if such a thing exists? Imagining a massive rock-orchestra in the background in my head just isn't cutting it.

The song is called "I'm gonna be" and there is a longer version, five seconds longer to be exact (3:42 vs. 3:37).

I actually just realized I can search iTunes AND google (google hadn't been terribly helpful so I figured I was immune to "here, let me google that for you). iTunes actually brought up a few different 5-6 minute versions, not by the original group but pretty decent in their own right.

So far I haven't found a nine minute orchestral masterpiece though, so perhaps this thread may yet prove useful.

Try renting "Benny & June" Maybe you can strip it off the DVD

Wasn't that just the original 3 minute song?
