I love George, alot. But Bomfunk MCs Freestyler has that intro for me. As soon as it starts, I'm fuckin there...

These 2 kicked the 90s off, it just sounded so different compared to other mainstream music



way too many to name

Take Me Home and Peace Sells have fantastic basic drumming to lead into their respective songs.

Fact.

Please post some worthy second or third place options.

It’s an intro that should be played at all times and in all situations:



The security guards can’t stop the sounds from the ‘sexiphone’.

My vote for second is ‘Roundabout’ by ‘Yes’ made relevant again by ‘Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure’:



The baseline is awesome.

My vote for third is ‘Eye in the Sky’ by the ‘Alan Parson’s Project’:



Anybody in the 90’s who watched Jordan on the Chicago Bulls knew that intro…how many people new the rest of it…probably not many

Edit: whoops it was ‘Sirius’ which then segways into ‘Eye in the Sky’:

The live rendition of Careless Whisper from Japan is amazing.

The guy was an amazing vocalist:


He just got outshone by his own saxaphone.

Best guitar riff ever

 

[Roxkis_ii]

One of my all time favorite songs.
(Bluetooth audio doesn't do this song justice imo)

This intro is beautiful. It's like something starting alone, then meeting something new and combining with that something to become stronger, then the song kicks in and it's an absolute banger. My god, I feel blessed to even get to hear a song like this.


Edit:

0:55 hits like:

 

[FunkMiller]

Oh, OP (and the rest of you) how sad that you are all so very, very wrong.



And just for shits and giggles, here's one of the dumbest intros ever:



Nice Taz impression there Jonathan, you kilt wearing knob.

 

[Pegasus Actual]

Some good ones in here so far. I'll just throw in a couple from Dream Theater and try to stop myself from delving all the way into prog rock dorkdom referencing endless 30 minute songs and concept album intros.

So, I’ll just post this here.
