Ayreon - Vigil
song.link/us/i/1600474852

The Human Equation is about a man in a coma, wrestling with himself. The opener explains, as you meet some of the voices.

Kamelot - Un Assassinio Molto Silenzioso
song.link/us/i/1447673678

An intro from a live performance! On the studio album this was track 9. But this particular performance was really peak Kamelot.

Derek Sherinian - The Fury
song.link/us/i/1443645205

This album features so many egos. Sherinian, Malmsteen, Lukather. It is a prog journey complete with peaks and valleys. Malmsteen's opener is surely the only way it could have begun,

Dream Theater - Regression

Surely this helpful psychologist couldn't be part of the story, right?

It's the first Thursday Five List! Songs that are a strong start / set a tone for an album.

Judicator - A Picture of Fading Light
song.link/us/i/976698608

This power metal track is a great intro to a stellar album. The album is about a man passing away from cancer and this sonically sets the stage.

Hey all!
For #ThursdayFiveList it’s all about album intros with #TheIntro
Here goes with some great intros that set the albums up brilliantly.

1️⃣ One Vision, by Queen, from A Kind of Magic.
song.link/gb/i/1441459307

(That song is one of the best intros to an album, ever!).

2️⃣ In your Honour, by the Foo Fighters from the album of the same name.
3️⃣ FutureSex / LoveSounds by JT.
4️⃣ Lost Ones from The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill.
5️⃣ Do it to Me by Lionel Richie from Back to Front.

Today's #ThursdayFiveList theme, the first of 2025, and courtesy of @neurothing, is #TheIntro, five songs that are great album intros, but also work as stand alone tracks. In no particular order, here are my introductory five:

Train - 4 Non Blondes - Bigger, Better, Faster, More! (1992)
youtu.be/lsVFt6l2Utg

Station to Station - David Bowie - Station to Station (1976)
youtu.be/QymJI00mlSs

House of the Rising Sun - The Animals - The Animals (1964)
youtu.be/N4bFqW_eu2I

Cosmic Thing - The B-52’s - Cosmic Thing (2004)
youtu.be/nxa09aZ6ZN8

Good Times Bad Times - Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin (1969)

Now scrolling back, I feel like I did #TheIntro wrong and was supposed to do more introductory, silly songs, or skits that started albums.

So, let's try that again.

Take 2.

Dr. Dre - The Chronic (Intro) song.link/us/i/1668461340

Eminem - Public Service Announcement song.link/us/i/1440871449

Gorillaz - Intro song.link/us/i/850571364

Thursday Five List is going with the theme of The Intro. Tracks (Not really songs) that introduce an album. I find it interesting because posting first songs is easy, finding a good intro is hard.

Baby V.O.X "Intro" (Come Come Come Baby)
