Title: Favourite Parts of Songs
Post by: Spriter on November 16, 2013, 15:08
Basically, are there any parts of any song that you absolutely love hearing? A lovely guitar solo? A nice bit of singing?

For me, there's several songs with some parts in that are just...brilliant.

Muse - Knights of Cydonia
When the solo kicks in...dubstep eat your heart out, it is just brilliant.

Metallica - All Nightmare Long
The entire solo plus the bits in between are amazing.

DragonForce - Last Journey Home
About 4:20 into the full version, it changes tone and it sounds amazing. Then at 5:08...just brilliant.

Play with Me- Extreme.

Nuno Bettencourt's solo is just full of neo-classical arpeggios and melodies. Brilliant.

Out of the Frying Pan and Into The Fire- Meat Loaf

The guitar tone in the song is just amazing.

You've Got A Friend- James Taylor

The verses are in a minor key, the verses in a major key. Who'd have thought it?

The piano parts to Total Eclipse of the Heart, Making Love Out of Nothing At All, and Holding Out for a Hero (which all three had the music written by the same man. I think they all had different lyricists though.)

Drum solo intro to Blondie's Rapture.

Guitar solo in Blondie's One Way or Another and Call Me, Physical by Olivia Newton-John, and Beat It by Michael Jackson

Guitar parts for 4 Non Blondes' What's Up, Extreme's More Than Words, and Green Day's Time of Your Life

Synthesizer parts in Rufus/Chaka Khan's Ain't Nobody, Yaz(oo)'s Situation, Funkytown by Lipps Inc., Flashdance...What a Feeling, Hall and Oates Maneater, The Jets' Crush on You and Rocket 2 U, Miss Me Blind by Culture Club, Chaka Khan's I Feel for You, Pointer Sisters Neutron Dance, and Jane Child's Don't Want to Fall In Love

freak - smashing pumpkins
the chorus is perfect in many ways
although anything by billy corgan is perfect so

drop that child - droptek/tut tut child
the drop. is just. oh my goodness.

21st century schizoid man - king crimson
the parts with the vocals and eerie guitar chords is super cool

stay together for the kids - blink 182
the burst when the chorus comes in is pretty unbelievable

art school girl - stone temple pilots
"I TOLD YOU FIVE OR FOUR TIMES, I TOLD YOU FIVE OR FOUR TIMES, I TOLD YOU FIVE OR FOUR TIMES, I TOLD YOU FIVE OR FOUR TIMES"

outside the box - obsidia
the intro was so odd it was cool, drop wasnt great (was still ok tho)

the fox - ylvis
when he says toot hehehehehehe

Burial - Shell Of Light

The beat switch followed by the sample... God can you whisper in her ear? I wasn't sure we could be friends

Love it so much I'm gonna listen now, it's one of the most beautiful moments in music

The end section of Justin Bieber's Heartbreaker is pretty great too, shame T-Minus doesn't produce any more

The second and third parts (... Because He Broke The Rules and Voodoo Man) of Act 1 by Jay Electronica is incredible too, the lyricism and samples are so great. The former samples Willy Wonka and the start

Quote
The handling of a heart's
A very delicate art
Cause it's paper thin
One irrelevant thought
That started out as a spark
Could be a poisonous dart
That leaves a permanent mark
That's ice cold in the day and burns in the dark
And makes you never wanna see her face again

is so beautiful; Voodoo Man samples a Kurdish film called Turtles Can Fly (powerful film, so moving and well done) and from a rap technical view point is so lyrical. Jay Electronica in general is incredible though so yeah. The Islamic part of Exhibit C >>>>>>>>>

The guitar solo in Kanye's Devil In A New Dress is incredible too, Mike Dean absolutely killed it; the vocoder in Runaway is beautiful

The chorus of Creature Fear by Bon Iver really adds so much life to the song whilst retaining the theme of it

The almost commercial dubstep style drop in High For This by The Weeknd is just brilliant production; same for the use of sample in Wanderlust.

Think that'll do for now heh

EDIT: forgot La Ritournelle by Sebastien Tellier! The strings that kick in for the production are great, especially the development of them before the singing. Absolutely legendary track

Hotel California - The Eagles

Last thing I remember, I was heading for the door
I needed to get back to the place I was before
"Relax," said the Nightman, "We're programed to receive
You can check out any time you want, but you can never leave."
*Epic Long Guitar solo*

From last thing I remember to the end of the song, that's the stuff of gods.

The synth  part and guitar solo in The Pleasure Principle by Janet Jackson is pretty good. I also like the synth in Berlin's Take My Breath Away as well.

The harmonies in the warblers cover of Misery. Particularly in the bridge (or whatever this bit is:

You say your faith is shaken
But you may be mistaken
You keep my awake and waiting for the sun
I'm desperate and confused
So far away from you
I'm getting there I don't care where I have to roam

Last thing I remember, I was heading for the door
I needed had to get find the passage back to the place I was before

I was thinking of this exactly when I saw this topic. Love that guitar. The cool bit is it's not actually a solo, it's a duo. Or whatever it's called. There's 2 of them playing in different keys at just slightly different times which just sounds incredible.

I love the piano solo in the Pointer Sisters song I'm So Excited. I like how fast the notes are played and so close together.

It's technically both. Don Felder plays one solo, Joe Walsh plays another, then they play together at the end. If we're being technical it's called harmonising. Joe Walsh's guitar is playing a minor third above Don Felder's to create that sound. They're in the same key, just playing a different scale degree above.

It's my favourite piece of lead guitar to play on guitar. Especially the harmonised section.

There's a guitar break in ...And Justice for All by Metallica just after the main solo that is just brutal.

Ah, that's it. That's interesting actually. I definitely need to learn to play it, it sounds brilliant. I might look up a guitar tutorial or something.

Anesthesia's okay, but there have been better ones I reckon.

Disposable Heroes is my personal favourite.

God so many little bits um

In green day's brutal love when Billie sings 'something for my troubled miiiiinnndd' and the key changes ugh <33
The bass solo in makeout party dayum Mike
Billie's guitar playing on the triology was nice, lots of little riffs here and there that were awesome <3

A lot of frightened rabbits songs, lyrics and music. Skip the youth is just amazing, how the intro builds for about a minute.
The whole song floating in the forth where he sings about suicide and it just ends with 'think I'll save suicide for another year'
Wedding gloves is stunning as well, Scott's falsetto against Aidan Moffat's dark voice ugh

Can't think of any others hmm

The solo in Michael Jackson's Beat It...love it.

Also, the part between the first and the second chorus in Alter Bridge's Slip to the Void is too good.

counting bodies like sheep to the rhythm of war drums - a perfect circle
when it goes quiet for like 15 seconds and then "go back to sleep" is whispered.
