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 always liked Celebrate - a class intro (from a class band!)

Best Sisters one is Kiss The Carpet (also best music for those more intimate moments between 2 consenting adults :innocent: :oops: )

But my all time fave must be Vagabonds (NMA) truly awesome - especially live.

I would agree reluctantly as the song is about one of my most favouritest of people - and I always find myself dancing to it for some reason at a club and then realise that it was a mistake as it goes on for about half an hour :lol:

Indeed.

A Bauhaus fan am I, but they should have cut a minute off the beginning and three off the end. The song would have lost nothing.

I wonder how I could have forgotten:

Joy Division - Digital

I air-bass to that intro every time, and always end up screaming "Fade away! Fade away!"

Class Song.
