If you like song intros, listen to Osymyso's "Intro introspection".
12 minute mashup mix of a hundred or so song intros blended into one trip.
Surprising how many songs you can recognise based on the first bar or even just a couple of notes.

**Lostinthetrees** · 09-30-2004, 01:15 PM

The intro to the entire 1st side of Santana's "Abraxas" album*.

* I have since re-purchased it on CD.

how about great beginnings to crappy songs?

I can't stand Billy Joel, but some of his songs have great intros. I hear them and think "hey this is nice" then they segue to a run of the mill crap BJ song
