Best Intros In The World... Ever!

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I still have my antique copy of Kings Of The Wild Frontier album on vinyl. Knackered sleeve and all 8)

Same age and same taste in music, AATA were one of the first bands I got into also, right up to the Prince Charming period, they were a dam fine band.

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club-Whatever Happened To My Rock 'N' Roll (Punk Song)
I've always been a sucker for 1-2-3-4. None of that poncy 1-2-a-1-2-3-4 from this band,what's that all about ?
Also anything that starts with Click-click-click-click by AC/DC from the Back in Black album.

"Another Girl Another Planet" - The Only Ones

Edit: The first album version. Not the Peel Sessions version where John MacKay doesn't quite pull it off but it's still mighty fine. :von:

:roll:

My apologises ... I obviously meant John Perry because of 'specialist guitars' on VT credits but this was his day job before that. 8)

John MacKay was obviously the orignal Siouxsie geetar man with Kenny Morris on drums before they imploded in ... Aberdeen! :lol: And a slightly thinner 'Fat Bob' and Budgie came to their rescue. :notworthy:

Just ran upstairs and checked the autographed Feb 79 poster. And *sighed * 8)

all the suggestions so far are good, if not great but they are opening passages, codas if you will, of songs therefor not intros
Damn I'm in pedantic mode! :twisted:

Should I be proud to have comfortably passed GCSE music and still not be entirely certain as to the difference? Does it have to be a unique passage?

argue on, please I just think a (sic) intro and a tunes opening are somewhat different

this tune fulfils both categories, IMO

I think Gemini by my lot has a good intro. Just my opinion. :lol:

One of the few songs I've made that I listen to. Cause I don't have to listen to my voice on it.

Reptile is more immediately impressive, imho, Gemini is stronger further in. 8)

Not sure about the vocals though. The guy on Shadows seems a better singer, a mon avis ;)
