    I'm guessing there won't be many fans of German melodic Power metal on here but this song has probably my favourite intro, the riff about 30 seconds in I just love especially when the rest of the band kick in. The song itself is bloody huge a bit of an epic.

    Not sure if this is about intros or riffs, but in no particular order:

    For Whom The Bells Toll - Metallica

    Whole Lotta Rosie - AC/DC

    Love Action (I Believe In Love) - The Human League (when the base kicks in)

    Fool For Your Loving - Whitesnake

    Wollt Ihr Das Bett In Flamen Sehen - Rammstein

    Two Tribes - Frankie Goes To Hollywood

    Run To The Hills - Iron Maiden

    ...there are soooooo many.
