Best Intro to a song

[Marc]

Never had this one before I dont think!

For me its Unwritten Law's song Harmonic, slowly builds upto a decent fast paced surfing song

also:
Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen, pure class, the build up is fantastic!
Hells Bells by AC/DC, those Bells!
Sweet Child 'O Mine by Guns 'N Roses, that guitar riff....YEAH!

 

[CHAPPERS]

Rings around the World by the Super Furries.

 

[Braders]

the piano bit at the start of lose yourself , eminem

 

[R2D2]

Louie Louie - The Kingsmen

 

[sullyupthewing]

This is the end, The Doors, If you have watched the Film Apocalypse Now, you will see why.

 

[Reading Posh]

Also Sprach Zarathrustra - Deodato

 

[The Large One]

The single power chord and one minute synthesizer opening to Won't Get Fooled Again by The 'Oo.

 

[REDLAND]

Were The Brews - NOFX

Marvellous song start !!

 

[Wozza]

The Reflex - Duran Duran

 

[Zebedee]

Gotta be Freebird by Lynyrd Skynyrd for me. A classic amongst classics.

Rock on.

 

[Superphil]

Good Morning by Blackfoot.

hmmm, strange, that, coming straight after a post about Lynyrd Skynrd

 

[Publius Ovidius]

One of these Nights - The Eagles

Honky Tonk Woman - The Stones
Brown Sugar - The Stones

Freebird - Lynard Skynard

 

[Mick Beard BHA]

Jimi Hendrix's cover of "All Along the Watchtower"

and also

The Clash "Janie Jones" (although they did far too many quality intros to mention here..)

 

[Easy 10]

Welcome to the Pleasuredome. Dig those jungle riffs.

 

[Meade's Ball]

Welcome to the Terrordome. Public Enemy.

 

[fatbadger]

Cannonball - the Breeders (brrrumber-berum, brrrumber-berum, woowoooowoo, woowoooowoo, clickety-click etc)

Everyone thinks he looks daft - the Wedding Present. Or rather, this is the best opening to an album. Turn it up loud - no, even louder than that - and hear Gedge take a deep breath before he launches into the song. Brilliant.
