Money isn't that recognisable - I sometimes think it's the theme tune to "Are You Being Served?"

Rock Radio in manchester has a 'guess the album' comp in the morning - short snippets of an album which you have to guess.
they played the first 0.5sec of The Who's Baba O'Riley and the first caller got it.

Not sure if it's a recognisable intro to most people, but especially in the summer time I just love the intro to 'Rudi, a message to you'
In the car, sunny day, it just makes me smile.

The longest-running thematically linked etc. ...The Chain
Technically this isn't an intro. It comes in towards the end of the song.

My riding mantra...
Although IIRC the "you fat b******" intro was from the beginning of 30 Something, before launching into the energy fest oif Surfin USM.... another piece of anti-social music from my past that really ought to be tracked down for the mp3 player - the casette died many many years ago
Black Dog - Led Zeppelin

Because they shout 'Where's your head at?' really loud.

Where is My Mind (Pixies)
That one that goes "dada doo da dur dur dur du-dudder-dur" (guitar riff). In fact, I know the intro so well but I don't know the song.Posted 2 years ago # -
I like these music posts, but I'm struggling with the concept of "most recognisable". A lot of the ones above would not be instantly recognisable if played by another musician in another musical style. Is it the notes or the way they're played?
Or shall I just get my coat?
