Great song intros

I don’t know if its been mentioned or not:

Layla - Derek and the Dominos

Here are a few, didnt read any previouse posts though…so sue me.

Fuel~Metallica
Yellow Ledbetter~Pearl Jam
Dave~Two Step

Okay, I only have a couple…

“Here I Am” - Lyle Lovett. “Hello…I’m the guy who sits next to you and reads the paper over your shoulder in the morning. Wait - don’t turn the page - I’m not finished. Life is so uncertain…” <cue awesome chorus>

“The Low Spark of High-Heeled Boys” - Traffic. Long slow build-up. VERY nice.

Just when I was about to go compliment you on your taste for mentioning Queen, you go and have a dig Coldie… sigh :wink:

The song Heartache all over the world always reminds me of Amsterdam (chorus: Girls, girls, girls…) :smiley:

But being serious for a second (why not?) Down Under IS indeed another song with a cool intro. Particularly when you’re an Aussie wandering the world (yes I KNOW there aren’t many of us doing that). Invokes such memories. But back home it’s just another song…

Another song for the list: Run To Paradise by the Choirboys though I’m not sure how much exposure it recieved overseas.

:rolleyes:

Don’t you hate it when you think of something to add or something you meant to say a second AFTER you push the post button.
