Top 10 Songs Where the Singer Starts Singing After 1 Minute or More
I didn't title the list 'songs with long intros' or 'best long intros' because these instrumental parts are not always intros.Sometimes the instrumental section before the vocals is more than just an intro.
The Top Ten
1 Echoes - Pink Floyd
2 Raining Blood - Slayer
3 For Whom the Bell Tolls - Metallica
After 2:07 minutes. Great intro.
4 Holy Wars... The Punishment Due - Megadeth
Dave starts singing after 1:27 minutes. This is my favorite metal intro and I wish it was longer.
5 Sacred Worlds - Blind Guardian
After 2:13 minutes. I love this intro, it's so impressive (as well as the song after it).
6 April - Deep Purple
The singer starts singing at 8:50 into the song.
7 Black Magic Woman - Santana
8 Billie Jean - Michael Jackson
Quincy Jones on this intro: "you could shave on that intro! "
9 Schizos (Are Never Alone) - Parts I & II - Annihilator
After nearly 2 minutes (1:53) of great thrash metal riffing.
10 Enter Sandman - Metallica
The Contenders
11 Ain't Misbehavin' - Fats Waller
12 Fade to Black - Metallica
Singing starts at 1:28.
13 You're My Heart, You're My Soul - Modern Talking
