Your favourite moment in any Sisters song

So what is it? It could be your all-time favourite or just what you like most right now....yes, right now, or anything in between.

For me, right now, and for the past few days, it's been the mellifluous, graphite beauty of 'Some say prayers.' Only the album version, probably.

When the bass comes back in towards the end of "Lights."

The start of "Afterhours" or dropping the needle into the groove at the start of "Afterhours"

Can't really pick one, but perhaps the "another shade" bit from Summer.

Edit: "One, two, three, four-" 8)

I've always thought that "one, two, three, forget the many steps to heaven..." was an extremely well-done transition into the second half of UtG.

Lucretia. the whole build-up in the first part of the song.
"Dum-dum bullets and shoot to kill, ..." might also be one of my favourite parts :D

The guitar riff from TOL.
It just lets you know it means business from the get go

When :von: goes all woman at the end of some kind of stranger

Also, when :von: goes all woman at the end of amphetamine logic

Also, when :von: goes all woman at the end of lights


Starting to see a little theme here.

"We don't doubt, we don't take direction,
Lucretia, my reflection, dance the ghost with me" and you know what follows :D

The transition between 'Teachers' and 'Adrenachrome'. Gets me every time.

Lots of great moments already, but my favourite today is from Afterhours, where the the guitar comes in.

The whole build-up at the start of FALAA is just immense. Original mix version, of course.

The first time the choirs kick in before the chorus on This Corrosion is always a shiver-down-the-spine moment.

That last "INCOMING!" on Ribbons right when you think the song has ended, of course.

The moment on Burn when things go backward.

And to give a new song it's due, the frantic bit at the end of War On Drugs is always fun.

"train......................"

For me, there are many, but--and I know this is a weird one--I would say it's the first big opening chord of Black Planet, right around 0:08. Every time I hear it it takes me back to when I first heard the Sisters.

"And Romeo won't understand 'til he..."

"Married to a soldier in the army of the Rhine..."

The synth intro to "Driven Like The Snow".

"And I say mine, And I say..."

The full choral intro to This Corrosion.

The moment the bass comes in on Dominion.

Opening bar of Body and Soul.

Plus a few already mentioned above.

Some great choices here. Almost impossible to pick just one TSOM although I could easily do it for most other bands. So I'll go for :
Vocals - the "yips" on "ceiling" and "feeling" towards the end of BE (82)
Drums - the intro to Anaconda
Bass - the descending bit during the break in Adrenochrome
Keyboards - when they come in towards the end of SKOS
Guitar - the start of Ribbons
That's the list for today anyway.
