Great Musical Foreplay

[Joey Shabadoo]

The BBC has a story today that modern pop songs have little or no intro due to a need to grab an audience quickly when streaming. What a shame. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-41500692

They've listed some good intros there, but what about the ones that really got the hairs standing on the back of your neck? Let's hear your idea of a great intro -

The full version of the intro on the OST is much better at 1 minute 50!

An intro on a record was usually the bit that the Disc Jockey waffled banal inanities over, as was any part of the song that didn’t have vocals on it.

How's this for an unforgettable intro?

When I saw you'd posted to this thread, I half expected you to mention the fact that Miss Goodbody composes very nice musical intros using the mouth organ.

This one took up most of the entire song....
