Your favourite song intros

I got this idea from a poll on Radio 5 the other week. No biggie but which song intro just makes you go weak at the knees

These are mine

The Smiths - How Soon Is Now? Fantastic live!

COF - Cemetery and Sundown

And last but not least Motorhead

It can be any genre of music that you like.

I have a couple that I like but I'll share it when I'm not on my iPod.

Guns N' Roses - Sweet Child O' Mine
Classic!!

Dream Theater - The Ministry of Lost Souls
Something about this opening made me fall in love with this song.

Dream Theater - Forsaken
There's a couple of other Dream Theater solos that I like too....

Be'lakor - Tre'aste
Totally love this.

Iron Butterfly - In A Gadda Da Vida
Great song altogether but the intro is just so... intense, peaks, then mellows out the rest of the way until the end where it peaks again.

I like that song by The Smiths. Maybe because it was the Charmed theme song

Thunderstruck - AC-DC is an awesome intro as is Enter Sandman - Metalica and finally Sweet Child of Mine by Guns n Roses which I'm sure was written about my eldest little girl!!!

great topic

Oh Moon!!! I went hysterically tragic when they used that for Charmed!

I really like the intro to Walk Away by the Sisters of Mercy. I am obsessed with that song.

Also, I enjoy a lot of AFI intros.

And lullaby by the cure

Shes in parties - bauhaus

Greensward Grey and En Hiver by Cinema Strange

Oh and of course Soft Cell's Tainted love.

I think a see a trend here, half of these songs have intros with synthesizers lol.

I adore that song! It makes me go all goosebumpy

Always awesome when two great things come together.
Charmed was the first time I've heard that song and since then I think I've heard 3-4 different versions of it.

Let's see...
The Smiths
Love Spit Love (Charmed & The Craft version)
t.A.T.u.

Obviously Love Spit Love's version is the truest to The Smith's though I think I like LSL's version slightly more. t.A.T.u.'s is quite enjoyable and gives a certain flare to it, especially if you're burnt out on either/both the other artists.

Everclear did an okay cover...
Though I prefer Hundred Reasons's cover.
Quicksand... O_o
And Paradise Lost's version is pretty entertaining as well.

ya, every time I hear that song I just feel so happy, and I get goosebumps too. lol

Another favourite that I forgot from the other night. I love the MENACE in this one especially considering the subject matter

Hell yeah! One of the best intros EVER. I'm sitting here now alarming the dog by playing air guitar to it!
