Best Live Intro?

Post by Flea21212 »

Which song has the best Live intro?

I choose Car Crash, just because I love the speach that Raine gives about the meaning behind the song.... it's so creapy and errie. It gives me chills everytime I listen to it.

Oooh, good poll... though, I don't know! Too hard!!!! I guess I'll vote for Starseed... cos I live for those intros. :drool: But IAH is a very close second... :drool:

Oh, and if anyone votes for the Whatever intro... you deserve to die. :lol:

I'd choose Clumsy if it were on there. I mean, the piano intro, in general, is flat out amazing. When it's played live, the second the first note on the piano is struck, the entire crowd just flips out. You know this.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

I am all for OMA
when raine walks into the crowd and people are waiting for the song to start its such suspense and excitement...I love it.

Goodbye you liar,
Well you sipped from the cup but you don't own up to anything
Then you think you will inspire
Take apart your head
(and I wish I could inspire)
Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.

i had to go with IAH?, though I friggin' love the "old man at the back of the door..." live intro to Naveed.
"When looking up there, I just felt whole, like I belonged. Like one day I too would shine my most brilliant. Sitting there also made me think about sitting through services at my little country church back home. About that never-changing congregation of the same sixty-seven people and everyone has known you since before you were born. Now, out here in the real world, everything just seemed more vivid than when I used to sit in that little pew. That pew that was now so, so far away from where I was. I feared I had somehow left God behind there, too. I feared he was somehow just sitting there, saving my seat on the fifth pew from the front row, just waiting on me to come back. I left so quickly, I worried that he may not have noticed I was gone. And, now, I’m just too far away to find. So he’s just sitting there, patiently waiting on me to come back. I closed my eyes and prayed a moment. I hoped more than anything that he could still hear me." -an excerpt from my novella, A Sea of Fallen Leaves.

Naveed is by far the best intro, even if they just play the regular bass intro....what a great song!
Is there something good, something more?
Is there anything worth dying for?

I know they did that at Snowjob.

old man at the back of the door
he says he's alright but he still wants more
then the young man at the side of the house
says he's okay, he's okay, he's okay

And though the hum and sway gets me down, I'll find the way to peace and openness.
