There are a few looped videos that do appropriate tunes for a very long time:

10-hour Nyan Cat

How come we don't have 10 hours of "Lloyd George Knew My Father" or "My name is Yon Yonson" yet?

10-hour YouTubes? Glad to hear it's not just one ballad...

Oh, no! It's worse!

The ultimate "cute kitty" video. No doubt, some cat lovers will watch it from beginning to end.

Am I supposed to thank you for this, Jack?

NyanCat is basically a reel, and there's nothing intrinsic to the tune that suggests it ought to go on forever. "Lloyd George Knew My Father", on the other hand...

Here's another one, also not folk:

Satie: Vexations

the trouble is

i have this strong instinct that Nyan Cat is nearer to the common pursuit of music making than my own efforts.

I'm disappointed. I thought these would be play lists at youtube with 10 hours at a time of various folk artists, as an alternative to radio programming. Maybe someone who loves folk music will create 3 hour blocks like that.
