Start Me Up: 12 Songs With Awesome Intros

 

I love when I hear the beginning of one of my favorite songs and within seconds I am transported into the mood and feeling of the music. While some songs take a while to build up, and I love those too, sometimes I need a song that launches right in with a vibrant intro.  With captivating opening riffs and ear-opening vocals, these songs hook a listener within the first few seconds. Find them below, and on my “Start Me Up” playlist on Spotify. 

1. Led Zeppelin “Trampled Underfoot”

2. Brenton Wood “Gimme Little Sign”

3. The Rolling Stones “Plundered My Soul”

4. The Grateful Dead “Althea”

5. My Morning Jacket “One Big Holiday”

6. Quicksilver Messenger Service “Too Long”

7. The Shins “Turn on Me”

8. Sonic Youth “The Diamond Sea”

9. Led Zeppelin “Your Time Is Gonna Come”

10. Pink Floyd “Young Lust”

11. Steely Dan “The Caves of Altamira”

Happy listening!
