It’s been done before but what the hell let’s do it again! What’s your favourite song intro?

Mine is Gimme Shelter by the Stones with Your Latest Trick by Dire Straits and Electricity by OMD in the other podium positions.

KoC has got to be one of the best intros ever, the song in total is amazing too.

So many great intros here,

One that always makes me laugh is Jimmi Hendrix - Foxy Lady, great song but due to Wayne's World I always smile when I hear it.

Animals- House of The Rising Sun is another good one.
