Continuing the theme:

With Or Without You - U2

By:

SlippyBlue When: 21 Jan 14 22:12

U2 get a terrible slating on here egner as a rule, that is a great song and at the time I was a full on coke monster so it was very relevant to my world. I must have listened to The Joshua Tree a thousand times and saw them live often.

egner When: 21 Jan 14 22:21

..they do get a slating slippy....in the wider world as well....but the Joshua tree was brilliant

..and the melancholy lyrics to that song strike a chord with me for sure......lovely song.

Purple Rain - Prince ...just off the top of my head - will give it some thought though.

By:

Eeternaloptimist When: 21 Jan 14 22:46

If they didn't have a recommend I'd say Sympathy For The Devil and Paint It Black but I'll throw in Hotel California and Boys Of Summer. Certainly instantly recognisable if you don't class them as great intros.

By:

dewey When: 21 Jan 14 22:48

Sonic Reducer by the Dead Boys

By:

Aspro When: 22 Jan 14 16:47

Time (for me - Pink Floyd) is without doubt the greatest intro of all time. There are some beauties posted here; for example Gimme Shelter and Cozi Powell's Stargazer intro but nothing beats the intro of Time (imvho)
