I think Watsky's "Lovely Thing Suite" would be better as a 20 minute song, it ended up releasing as 4 songs that technically flow into eachother but it's a little janky.

When some filthy casual calls a piece of classical music a "song"

Check out this, it's like a blend of classic and electronic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_UOmAed5O8

I knew from the thumbnail that this is Virtue by Overwerk. Excellent track!

Pieces, tunes, concept albums. Not songs

tunes

That's an element of a musical piece (or song, etc.), not a piece in itself.

When you talk about electronic music with 20 minute "songs" you're talking about various dance genres eg: progressive trance, psytrance, other rave oriented music. I have never heard anyone in that scene use the term "song". Tunes, beats, but never song. As for prog, I'm not sure you could call Jethro Tull's "thick as a brick" a song as such. My point is that once you cross the 10 minutes mark, it's unlikely that the person playing it will refer to it as a song.
