Best Song Intros..
« on: March 15, 2008, 09:35:45 PM »
I love a rock song with a cool intro, one of my favorites is Roundabout (the live version). There are a few out there though that are really definitive:

Jumping Jack Flash
Spirit in the Sky (Norman Greenbaum)
Born to be Wild
Purple Haze
Pinball Wizard
Money For Nothing

just to name a few.

Any more?

Sweet child of mine - gets me every time.....

While my guitar gently weeps - Jeff Healey
Big Log - Robert Plant
Parisienne Walkways - Gary Moore

Loads more of them, but I'm way to lazy to type em all out.

Bright Lights Keep Shining, Comeback Kid.  The opening riff is awesome and very easy to (begin to) rock out to.

Unfortunately, it drops off from there for the song.
