And The Best Song Intros Ever Are...?

What do you think the best intros are?

I'll get it started.

How about the drums... and then the voices:

"Why don't you ask him if he's gonna stay..."


Fleetwood Mac: "Tusk"

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

one of the most important moments in modern music history imo

jimi went to england a little known guy and made it big over there... this was his triumphant return to the usa

to me, the way he kicks off his take on this howlin' wolf blues tune says "everyone get the fuck out of the way... i'm here now"

Since I don't know how to post videos, I'll just say "Papa Was a Rolling Stone".

Of course Prince has the best intros.

Since he's so strange and litigious I'll list...

Extended intro to "Raspberry Beret".

"Pop Life"

"When Doves Cry" (Probably the best)

"Purple Rain"

Extended intro to "1999"

"Controversy"

"Sign O' the Times"

blah blah blah

"Shut up already, DAMN!"

Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.
