Mines Yellow Ledbetter.

For some reason it puts me in a trance, and if its on and people keep talking I wanna say "Shut up! What is the matter with you people? Cant you hear what song has just begun?! But I dont, I suffer in silence :D

    Release is my second.
    The way Eddie expresses his pain in the rest of that song is jaw dropping.

    I'd have to go with Hail, Hail. The way it just blasts in after sometimes fades out blows me away every time.

    PJ have a lot fo great intro's...they have a great knack for it like the Beatles did...meaning that as soon as you hear it, there's no doubt as to who it is :)

    I like

    You Are
    Rear View Mirror
    Hail Hail (especially when you listen to the album...because it just smacks you in the head...lol)
    and Breath off of the Singles soundtrack...every time I hear that intro, I am instantly tansported back to memories of some of the best times of my life :)

    Betterman. Love the haunting intro that goes into that soft beautiful guitar by Ed that is Betterman. Live, it would def have to be Corduroy!

    Parting Ways- Its eerie. Its dark. Its forbodding. Its Translucent. It Ripples through your head and says this is what pain feels like. All perfectly trancended into music. Pearl Jam do it all the time but this one especially hits me.

    yeh yellow ledbetter easily for me- that hendrix riff gets me everytime
    2nd favorite is probably release
    corduroy is a classic


    also, the intros for Leash, Go, Black, Light Years, and Who You Are are all awesome

    I'm also obsessed with the intro for U

    Well, Yellow Ledbetter of course, Brother, Breathe, You Are, I Am Mine, Glorified G. Many others, but those are just some of the ones that come to mind right away.
