OT: Just the First Few Notes & You Know

[meyers7]

First 5 notes and you got it.

Jack and Diane - John Mellencamp

 

[meyers7]

The crowd knew it in the first couple of notes. Just " Turn it up" will usually do it.

Sweet Home Alabama - Lynyrd Skynyrd

 

[Intpseeker]

Seven opening notes that get my attention.

 

[Intpseeker]

I can name it in one:

 

[Intpseeker]

 

[Intpseeker]

 

[uconnell]

Pretty woman. Roy Orbison

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Dang. Gotta go to a different computer. Puppy pulled out desktop sound chord. Glad so many have played at playing these songs.

 

[meyers7]

Unless Kid Rock is sampling it.

Werewolves of London - Warren Zevon

 

[meyers7]

That bass line gives it away.

I Wish - Stevie Wonder

 

[JordyG]

One beat.

 

[Scud49]

That first guitar riff, then "Look out Mama, there's a white boat comin' up the river".

I saw a poll a few months ago, this Neil Young tune was voted as the #1 song from his extensive career:

 

[Huskie78]

 

[bags27]

Pretty woman. Roy Orbison

+1 . If I had to vote for just one, I think it would be this.

 

[VAMike23]

 

[VAMike23]

Also recognizable in the first measure --

 

[ctfjr]

let the 60's rock! Back Bay, bring it on!

 

[ctfjr]

Had to add this one - it was a mind blower in the 70's if you had a great stereo (or a cheap headset and some weed)

 

[Scud49]

That super infectious beat kicks it off and keeps you locked in:

 

[Scud49]

The rain..........
