Default What are the best intros to songs?
HI After reading the article about the best first lines I thought I'd ask what everybody thinks about the best musical intros, riffs or whatever. You'll have to think for me coz I'm a bit grrrrrooooggggy but anyway, Here's a few I thought about:

Dazed and confused- Led Zep
Enter Sandman-Metallica
Sweet Child o mine-Guns and roses
Smells like teen spirit-Nirvana
Money-Pink Floyd

Meat loaf - Bat out of hell.

Best intro to a concert: Metallica, So F*****g what.

Other cool ones have been mentioned:

Enter Sandman,
Sweet Child of Mine,
Fear of the Dark,
I like the intro to BJ's Get Ready to.
Also, Back in the Saddle by Aerosmith.

I agree on all those already mentioned and I'll add:

U2: Pride (in the name of love) and New Year's Day
Bon Jovi: If I was your mother
Richard Marx: Miami 2017 (cover song yes, but his version is better)
