Favorite song intros?

GreySeal9 · 2011-09-06 08:47:43

I have four candidates:First, the best intro of all time, 'Gimme Shelter' by the Rolling Stones: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4ECh5KSJDQMy second choice is the beautiful guitar riff from the beginning of 'Another Day' from Rent: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AzxdKG0ReScMy third choice is from another Stones song called 'Under by Thumb'. It's so jazzy and funky and just plain cooling sounding: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nYYTLJ8YHi4My fourth choice is the gorgeous mysterious intro to Enya's 'Carribean Blue': http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1L8uRApYeQMy last choice is the intro to Kanye's Dark Fantasy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-qKboHKPEA. The 'can you get much higher?' sounds so epic and angelic.What are your favorites?

[QUOTE="Fightingfan"][QUOTE="Lto_thaG"]Symphony X-Walls of Babylon.That s*** is just nuts.-Tish-

Wow, That's awesome. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8Kpj6fmzdo @ 00:42

I always thought Set the World on Fire had a better intro on that album. This particular video uses the first opening track with it, though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x63x3x8Bw9k&feature=related

That is indeed great.But I could've listed many great intros of Symphony X,but I was listening to Walls at that time.

Have you listened to the new album? I've heard bits and pieces and it seems pretty tight.

I guess I should give it a whirl before new Dream Theater and Machine head come out and I get stuck on them. I got the album but haven't listened to it in full.

Idioteque by Radiohead
Mirror by Burial/Four Tet/Thom Yorke (I'd count the intro as everything until 1:00, even though it has lyrics)
Today by the Smashing Pumpkins
Everlong by Foo Fighters
1901 by Phoenix
"Hysteria" by Muse (linked earlier)
Cherokee_Jack

All really great choices as always Jack. I am not a fan of Kid A, but that intro for Idioteque is just orgasmically good.
