Gerry Rafferty - Baker Street is the first one that comes to mind. I'll have a think about it and post again later though as there are certainly more.

//edit Def Leppard - Pour Some Sugar On Me
Ian Brown - F.E.A.R.
Diesel - Sausalito Summer Nights
Redbone - The Witch Queen Of New Orleans
Bill Withers - Use Me Up

 

[The Dread Pirate]

We're so glad to see so many of you lovely people here tonight - And we would especially like to welcome all the representatives of Illinois's law enforcement community that have chosen to join us here in the Palace Hotel Ballroom at this Time. We do sincerely hope you enjoy the show - and please remember people that no matter who you are and what you do to live, thrive and survive - there are still some things that make all of us the same - you, me, them, everybody, everybody.

You picked that over Money For Nothing?! Or did you link to the wrong vid?

Money for nothing is weak is comparison to Walk of Life, the synth work puts Jean Michel Jarre to shame

 

[Fenris]

Incubus - Just a Phase

 

[Grandmaster Fap!]

 

[titaniumx3]

Almost hypnotising, especially when played at loud volume.

 

[lemonkettaz]

Probably Where the streets have no name by U2

 

[TheMightyTen]

Can't get to youtube at the mo, will post vids later.

Vagabonds -New Model Army

Kill your Remix -Alternative version of Kill your Television by Neds Atomic Dustbin (probably won't be able to find a vid for this )

**NO VID ON YT**

Maybe Tomorrow -The Chords (Probably won't be able to find a vid for this either )
Surprise to me , This intro just reminds me of School and youth club discos at the time, as soon as you heard that first chord, pile on the dance floor and belt 7 bells out the kid nearest you

White Riot -The Clash
Same reason as Maybe Tomorrow above, and pretty much became the archtype for a Punk intro

 

[Jonesiani]

...and because of this thread i've discovered Electric Wizard! Just bought "Come my Fanatics..."

Can't get to youtube, but a few of my favourites include..

Emperor - Depraved
A Ruined Nation Awakens - The Axis of Perdition
Be Quiet and Drive - Deftones

 

[R0B75]

Not the best Maiden song ever but I love the intro.

 

[Lashout_UK]

This one at the moment, just off the top of my head:

 

[Gaijin]

Not the best Maiden song ever but I love the intro.

I raise you "I live my way". Intro is where its at, hate the rest of the song.

Also rate Wasted Years for an Intro.

Also Slayer - Raining Blood, and South of Heaven is a good shout also.

Metallica - Orion.

The bass intro from My friend of misery gives me a stiffy.

Starts at 32 seconds in.

[TheRedZealot]

I cant post videos with swearing
