Songs you like the beginning to but the rest is lame.

pbradley · 06.27.2008, 03:31 AM

I've been annoyed by this a lot lately because of REM's thrashy/blippy intro to I'm Gonna DJ. I find myself driving or whatever and just replaying the first 6 seconds. Fucking annoying. I thought of sampling and looping it to do something of my own over it but I'm not at all knowledgeable of editing.

Others that come to mind: Sebadoh's Emma Get Wild needs its own thing, also Beauty of the Ride ruined by Barlow's Foo Fighters-like crooning.

i like the opening to stairway to heaven because it's so much fun to play on a marimba, but stairway to heaven is the biggest piece of garbage.

_slavo_ · 06.27.2008, 03:43 AM

"Dripping Dream"
the opening riff and feedback skronk in the beginning is heavenly, but the chorus just ruins it.

acousticrock87 · 06.27.2008, 03:50 AM

Love You Inside Out by the Bee Gees. I still like the rest of the song (so sue me) but that first 20 seconds is killer.

Paint it Black

Under the Blacklight by Rilo Kiley. Terrible song, but the intro is really good.

HECKLER SPRAY · 06.27.2008, 03:58 AM

Mudhoney - You got it.

mangajunky · 06.27.2008, 06:54 AM

Layla - Derek and the Dominoes

terriblecanyons · 06.27.2008, 07:09 AM

One by Metallica
As soon as it gets into that really repetitive metal part I am overcome with the urge to bang my head against a brick wall.

metallica's cover of am i evil? sounds pretty evil and awesome at the beginning but after the finger tapped part it gets kind of generic and boring.

Everyneurotic · 06.27.2008, 09:18 AM

poison the well - nerdy

atsonicpark · 06.27.2008, 09:25 AM

haha.

Which poison the well song samples the movie Angus?

mangajunky · 06.27.2008, 09:32 AM

Crazy in Love - Beyonce and Jay Z

yes - I'm saying that this song starts off good. Yes, I listen to pop music - fuck off.

the fuck do i know! i only have one of their albums which is good because the rest of their shit is awful boring derivative shit.

other than that, i only like the beginning of "nerdy" and "my mirror no longer reflects".

The Velvet Underground - Sweet Jane

I wouldn't say the rest of the song sucks too much, I just don't really like it.

Rob Instigator · 06.27.2008, 12:46 PM

pixies velouria

fuck I ate that stupid couplet he uses as a choruis, but for the first two minutes, the music is GLORIOUS

This Is Not Here · 06.27.2008, 12:51 PM

Rain On Tin, when there's, y'know... vocals.

Savage Clone · 06.27.2008, 02:15 PM

Magic Carpet Ride

Intro promises all kinds of noisy, creepy destruction.
Song delivers Canadian cornball lite-boogie-almost-psych

RanaldoNecro · 06.27.2008, 02:26 PM

"Dripping Dream"

at .29-.31 is heavenly

atsonicpark · 06.27.2008, 02:50 PM

Haha, rain on tin gets good when the vocals leave.
