What's the best first 10 seconds of any song?

MMarston

Was getting caught part of your plan?
I wanna say 21st Century Schizoid Man by King Crimson, but technically the actual song content doesn't start until the 15 second mark.


Although I guess that depends which version.

Ain't no question if I want it, I need it
I can feel it slowly drifting away from me
I'm on the edge, so why you playing?
I'm saying
I will never, ever let you live this down, down, down.....

How the fuck did I forget Gimme Shelter by Rolling Stones. The intro is probably too good for the song

Flo Rida Club can't handle me is also catchy

While I think the song is just OK, the first 10 seconds of TLC's Waterfalls is the smoothest shit ever

Also the radio edit of L'via L'viaquez by The Mars Volta

Woman by Wolfmother. Annoyingly, there doesn't seem to be a decent YouTube link for the proper album version.

IndiaArie feat. Akon "I am not my hair" - more specifically the first 40 or so seconds is my favorite intro buildup in a song
