Brilliant intro to a great record.

Not a song people on here are likely to know, what with it being Christian music, but I love the intro to this song

Whiskey in the Jar, always puts a massive grin on my face when I hear it come on. Loads more but its the first one I thought of.

The bestest intro ever in my opinion, just keeps building and building. Fucking ace.

deliriou5!!! havent heard of them in YEARS!!!

my favourite intro... hmmm...

try that for size. there's another song by another band that involves an air raid siren in the intro, but i cant remember who it is or what song, so thats not much use :D

actually lebowski wins, i heard that on radio 2 today and was singing along to it, its a fucking tune :D i also sang along with boyz II men 'end of the road' when it was on radio 1 t'other day :D

A few others spring to mind:

Tonight, Tonight by Smashing Pumpkins
Sweet Child O Mine by Guns N Roses
I Wanna Be Adored by Stone Roses
Under The Bridge by Red Hot Chili Peppers

I could go on. Too many opening riffs which I love to mention.

Lebowski, what happened to Michael?

Oh and I almost forgot Smash It Up (part one) by The Damned.

How silly of me.

Sweet child of mine is one of the best, voodoo chile is the best hendrix one. Smells like teen spirit also has a great intro.

Coheed and Cambria - 'welcome home' is a ruddy tune. they're shithot live too.

It wont let me view the vid.

Without doubt, the undisputed winner, I haven't heard that track for years.

if you dont like Rival Schools, you suck.

Yes, i'd also like to know.

On a related note, this is my favourite. Money For Nothing. It's not a fucking intro, it's aural foreplay.
