The best "Outro" ever was the piano at the end of "Layla" by Derek and the Dominoes (Eric Clapton)...

As for intros, there are many good ones, although I have always liked Elton John's somber opening to "Love Lies Bleeding" aptly titled "Funeral for a Friend" off of Yellow Brick Road.

Actually the lead-in and slide guitar work Clapton later became famous for was laid down by Duane Allman.

(Rolling Stone magazine's second best guitar of all time)

The live version of Sweet Jane on Lou Reeds rock n roll animal album.

**gornyhuy** · 01-26-2008, 08:08 PM

Some good ones in here!

Here are a couple:

For longest coolest intro before the words kick in, its gotta be 'i need a lover' by johnny cougar melonhead.

for historic significance, and cool, "i feel fine" by the Beatles - first song to ever use guitar feedback, plus the song starts as just feedback for the first few seconds.

100% agree with Sweet Child O Mine, great intro. Is 'Money' from the album that supposedly syncs up with The Wizard of Oz? For some reason I seem to remember that from some high school class.

Also:

Aerosmith - Sweet Emotion

All my top choices were already posted, but I'll throw in ACDC - TNT

**comeplay** · 01-27-2008, 03:49 PM

the best song intro would have to be..

Rick Ross - Hustlin'

hustlin', hustlin', hustlin', hustlin', hustlin', hustlin', hustlin', hustlin', hustlin', hustlin', hustlin', hustlin',
Everyday Im Hustlin

Exactly what I was going to post.

"You Could Be Mine" and "Locomotive" by Guns N' Roses are pretty badass too.

**comeplay** · 01-27-2008, 04:06 PM

i forgot a link to the best song intro

http://youtube.com/watch?v=BVLWKVTCf3A

**RedShoe** · 01-27-2008, 05:31 PM

With the exception of ONE and SING SING SING, most of my intros are for like the first 10 seconds.

One ~ Metallica http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwW9L_qzqp8

Renegade ~ Styx http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ef1pJH-NXUQ

Paint it Black ~ Rolling Stones (maybe one of the most recognized and used 10 seconds in music history) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4aNuyNk8nro
Same goes for :
Sunshine of your love ~ Cream (I prefer the cream version over the Hendrix version (although, I love Hendrix))

Sing Sing Sing ~ Louis Prima

Little Green Bag ~ George Baker http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0L1hD5OlPtw (reminds me of Baddog every time I hear it... I dunno why)

The End ~ the Doors FUCKING BAD ASS when used in Apocolypse now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MI24H...eature=related

Under Pressure ~ David Bowie (YES!! FUCK OFF!!!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNGQor3dED8

Soul Craft ~ Bad Brains (anytime you get to hear Rastafarians playing metal is pretty bad ass) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UN6uVosQrY4

Don't fear the reaper ~ Blue Oyster Cult, for obvious comedic reasons... MORE COWBELL!!!

Jump Around ~ House of Pain (FUCK OFF... You know you liked it when it came out)

Where is my mind ~ The Pixies

Kashmir ~ Zepplin When it first came out and you were with a girl when that song came on, that pretty much guaranteed you sex.

Manteca ~ Dizzy Gilespe.. I know you've all heard this, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxDG2PwSlIU but the Funky Lowlives remix is pretty bad ass as well http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R51MS4LkWaQ

Jesus Built my Hot Rod ~ Ministry (see sig for quote)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28S0csmLbNM This video is more accurate to the recording. The actual music video put out by ministry has the whole beginning chopped for time.

Hella Good ~ No Doubt - Dang, I dig her voice. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmDBvJczTLw

No More Tears ~ Ozzy People listed some Ozzy, and I dig that opening as well. Same goes for:
War Pigs ~ Ozzy

In the Air Tonight ~ Phil Collins. Can't listen to it and not get a clear cut visual of Crockett and Tubbs. (don't lie, you know it's true)

Another one bites the dust ~ Queen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hMenB9Ywh2Q

2112 ~ Rush http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPMT-2p8NBU Neil Pert is the king. (proof he's the king http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RMlKFEoSddU)

PRIMUS section
Tommy the Cat http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yn3uiLZY9Jg
My Name is Mud http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQaxYbPf-Hc
Jerry was a race car driver http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYcNcbJkVc8

shit, I like all their intros I'm going to list them all.... I'm done.

**Drake** · 01-27-2008, 05:33 PM
