There are many, many great moments in songs and despite not particularly liking Squeeze, a special mention has to go to....
Cool For Cats
I kiss her for the first time
And then I take her home
I'm invited in for coffee
And I give the dog a bone

Cool For Cats

And then I take her home
I'm invited in for coffee
And I give the dog a bone
the bass bit at the end of Going Underground.
One of the only bits of a Squeeze song that is any good lyrically. Up The Junction is totally incoherent.
I love the guitar riffs in Steely Dan's Reelin' In The Years
I absolutely love this bit of Apparently Nothin' from about 2:48 onwards, so so funky.
My favourite line of any song is
"the only sun she ever saw was the two he left her with"
' I am human and I need to be loved, just like everybody else does.'
[you] 'Ain't a beauty, but hey you're alright'
Also from Cool for Cats:
In and out of Wandsworth
With their number on their name
Funny how the missus
Always looks the bleedin' same
"Share some greased tea with me"

The way Candy Statton sings "..occasionally..." in You've Got the Love. goosebumps.
And obviously, when the backing vocals crack in Gimme Shelter.
Second guitar solo in comfortably numb
Zulu-Eleven - Member3 Minutes 39 Seconds in...
Bloody hell, great minds and all that.....

intro has to the most perfect.
I got a Gibson without a case and i cant get that even tanned look on my face.
I am One The Who
Indeed Rusty Spanner, indeed
From A New England by the Bard of Barking
"I saw two shooting stars last night
I wished on them but they were only satellites
Is it wrong to wish on space hardware"
Stones - start of You Can't Always Get What You Want is a good one.
More!

'Remember, whatever the cost, you have to burn all the bridges you've crossed.
The devils you've yet to behold are better by far than the devils you know.'
the sun goes down alone.............bryan adams, boys of summer.
As a challenging alternative... A mere sixteen seconds into this, I challenge anyone to listen without being carried away to another place....

And the way the strings rise from the background to gradually dominate Pachebels Canon in D, starting about 51 seconds in, through to the big break at 1 minute 51, is simply exquisite.
everytime Andy Gill touches his guitar strings in this
I'm with Zulu-Eleven on this one. That or the beginning of Joy Division's Transmission.
the bit where Riders on the Storm turns into Rapture in that mash-up
The beginning of A Forest (live).
Wow, that Vaughan Williams one is beautiful.

from 2.48 onwards till the next chorus
Bloody hell, almost forgot this:
You Lot : Orbital
From - 2:29 - 3:35 gives me shivers still - whole song is ace.

2:16 on a 500 shroom brew back in 91, haven't been right since.
Up The Junction is totally incoherent
Made perfect sense to me.
You notion of no clearly have narrative.
Floyd - the entire of Shine on you crazy diamond. Entirely because my dad chose it to be played at his funeral the old sod - he knew we all loved the song beforehand too and was a big fan himself.
Only all of it!!!
