The intro to Pavement's 'We Are Underused' is one of my favourites too.

...what we need is some REAL techno. Preferably from the streets of Frankfurt.

2) Misunderstood from Wilco's Being There just for it being so not alt. country. Even though I dont know where alt country starts or ends or fully understand what makes people point and say thats alt. country, that intro is defently not it.
3) Eric's Trip 4 songs sorta mashed into one with a wierd wubwubwub bass sound that opens Purple Blue.
4) Great intro to a great song in Leave Them All Behind, heck almost ever Ride song I can think of has a great intro. Perfectly timed for getting out of the shower to out the door in the morning.
5) The Church - "Almost With You" which starts off the 2nd side of Blur(ed) Crusade where the guy gets up answers the knock at a door and the door swings open to the song.

Always. That rumble gets the hairs on the back of my neck up, and as soon as the bass slips in, I have to stop whatever I'm doing.
Which is why I never listen to The Stone Roses in the car...

Unfortunately and unsurprisingly, the cover wasn't that good either.

Someone should sample and loop the bar where the drumbeat comes in, under the bassline and organ riff...

The solo keyboard intro to Steve Winwood "While You See a Chance," which supposedly came about when the other instruments were accidentally erased.

may be a cliche at this point, but i do truly love the intro to "where the streets have no name"

re: the Moulton remix of "Back Stabbers" - worth it for the breakdown that starts around the 6:50 mark alone - especially the piano vamp (if that's the right word)
