Favourite individual moment in music

[sh#t waffle]

A couple of new ones..

 

The outro to 'In The Dark Places' by PJ Harvey; haunting stuff..

The way the third chorus comes in in Baby Huey's 'Hard Times' (one of my favourite songs anyway), momentarily without vocals. Awesome, awesome hammondage.

'BECAUSE, you have not been paying attention.....'

 

This is one of my very favourite of these type of moments; when it drops it's fucking epic.

 

Another one that I have to mention is the point in Interpol's Take you on a cruise, at 2:10 into it, where the guitar stops for a beat and the vocals crash in: "Iiiiiiiiiiiiiii am the scavenger..."

Another of those great moments is halfway through Last Goodbye, by Jeff Buckley. Anyone who loves that song will know where I'm talking about; the part where he lets out an awesome wail and then: "Did you say, no this can't happen to me, did you rush to the phone to call..."

The final one I'll mention is one that Glen Hansard, from The Frames, did for the film Once. The bit in it half way through where he goes a bit mental always does the business for me.

1.50 in. Breaks my heart everytime..

[Captain Turdseye]

Favourite guitar rift has to be when the bass kicks in near the end of Fleetwood Mac's 'The Chain'

 

As for spine tingling, this performance is amazing. Not one of their best songs but just an ace video and right up there with my most played on youtube....

I can't wait for Noel's solo stuff to come out, Beady Eye are really disappointing.

Another one like that is Eskimo Friend. For those who don't know it, if you haven't got time to listen to it, start it from about 2.50 for 30 seconds. But if you CAN find the time to listen to it all, it's worth it.

Mine's, like, way too obscure to find on youtube.

YouTube - Elvis Presley_ an american trilogy

 

3:23 into the song, when the King shouts to the orchestra, before turning to the audience. Pure magic.

 

Excellent choice sir!

 

Also in the 68 NBC TV Special when he starts singing "Trying To Get To You" it's as if his soul has suddenly come free after years of singing crap movie songs.

3:53 in.

 

Both send shivers down my spine every time...

[stringvest]

I love the bit on McCartney's Maybe I'm Amazed when the Hammond kicks in.

 

I love the lazy, slurred scat in Chet Baker's recorded version of Everything Happens To Me. Like a slow orgasm in a chocolate fountain. No, that's not a euphemism.

 

"I may not always love you...."

 

Too many 'hairs on the back of the neck' moments to write down. Isn't music great?

The first 4 seconds of this clip.

[Paisley Red]

The bit about 6 minutes into the 12" version of New Order's 'Perfect Kiss' (on the 'Substance compilation) when it all suddenly kicks off - what an epic, exhilarating climax to a record. It was my favourite moment in music when I first heard it 24 years ago and it still is now.

[Thomo123]

First 30 seconds.....

First 15 seconds, makes me smile everytime.

Intro to 'Where The Streets Have No Name' - Pure Magic.

 

Especially on the Boston DVD 2001 Gig, absolutely beautiful in every way as the crowd start going mental during the Intro.

 

Mother - Lennon, the build up and the anguish in his voice gets me every time.

 

The outro of The Chain - Fleetwood Mac, fucking love it as it builds up and the drums sound amazing on that, especially the kick and snare.

 

Loads more that i just cant recall right now. Ace thread though.

The Rain Song. Start to finish, pure genius.

Radiohead - Arpeggi/Weird Fishes

 

The lines "Yeah, everybody leaves/if they get the chance/well this/is my chance"

 

Rilo Kiley - A Better Son/Daughter

 

Two moments: quiet, hushed beginning, followed by "And sometimes when you're on/you're really fucking on", and the plaintive, optimistic, parental wish "You'll be happy"

Seen this before, fucking fantastic. If I could rep, you'd be getting repped right now.

 

Have you seen this guy ? This is one of my favourite bass clips, love the way he uses harmonics to flesh the tune out.

Amazing bass player, but actually a bit of a twat in person.
