Can't believe nobody has mentioned this classic intro about his love of big butts by the man who was knighted for his services to mixing:

"Oh my god, Becky, look at her butt
It is so big
She looks like one of those rap guys girlfriends
Who understands those rap guys
They only talk to her because she looks like a total prostitute, ok?
I mean her butt
It's just so big
I can't believe it's so round
It's just out there
I mean, it's gross
Look, she's just so...... black!"

Of course, we forgot too the intro to Urban Hype's 'Trip To Trumpton'. Sounds like a medieval number being played on a lute, '...then suddenly...'

actually yeah, that WAS a good one

Was listening to a CD in the girlfriend's house last night and immediately thought of this thread. I've stayed out of it so far because I fear that I could be badly sucked in. Anway...

'Local God' - Everclear

violent femmes, blister in the sun

Now that was a cool intro to a cool song.

**max power** · 12/02/2004, 2:46 PM

Seen as someone mentioned house of pain a bit back, I guess Harlem Shuffle deserves a mention.
Along with:

smiths - last night i dreamt that somebody loved me / ask
jam - town called malice / eton rifles
ramones - any live song (1,2,3,4,)
wedding present - my favourite dress
madness - one step beyond / night boat to cairo
teenage fanclub - starsign
breeders - safari
primal scream - loaded
morrissey - suedehead
who - pinball wizard
ultravox - vienna
dusty springfield - you don't have to say you love me
stone roses - elephant stone (full version)
belle & sebastian - seeing other people
nick cave - do you love me?

I think i'll stop now.
