Sometimes musicology.

Whenever my friends hear him go "OOoOOH!" they look at me and make me change the song.

The beginning makes this track the perfect ringtone, the "OOoOOH!" is heard very clearly!

RIP Prince: thank U 4 a funky Time...

What intro to a Prince song makes you embarrassed when it comes on and there is someone else in the room with you-or just cringe on the whole because it's too over the top or whatever? Remember --not the song on the whole, JUST THE INTRO...

My vote: INTERACTIVE

"ARE YOU READY!?!?!?!?" ill

Absolutely! My sentiments exactly.

Also:

"CONTRADICTION MY PREDICTION!"
Gold--hideous fake piano playing ridiculously simple chords

yonipuja	I'm surprised no-one's mentioned 'Tick, Tick, Bang'. 'Oooooh, I can't hold it... OW!' Then the cheesoid sampler kicks in 'Bang-b-b-b-bang-baang' [Edited 6/14/05 23:32pm]

yonipuja	Just thought of another - the intro to 'Emancipation'. Always reminds me of listening to midi files in Quicktime Player.

I just want to go on record and say that I am the exact oposite of most of you. Y'all are listing some of my favorite intros!

Gett Off especially

The intro to Daisy Chain is the one part of the song I dig! I mean the man is famous for his screams and it's funny to hear them do takes on it like it's a movie line

Musicology
Tick Tick Bang
The Greatest Romance
Poom Poom etc.

Y'all don't seem to like when he starts of with a voice at all!

Or does anything to grab attention and jolt you right up. I dig those the most.

The intros I'm listing don't bother me like crazy,i love them too.
But sometimes they cause some pretty awkward situations when I play 'em out loud.

The start of "Trust" bugs the crap out of me. I remember sitting in the movie theatre for Batman sinking in my seat to that.....

GottaLetitgo	Does the beginning of Diamonds and Pearls make anyone else cringe? It sounds like someone fell on the organ. Maybe it was Tony, slipping after trying one of those intricate spin moves. All good things they say never last...

I noticed that 99% of the songs mentioned are from 91 and onward. Hmmm, interesting.
