two classic song intro's battle it out

[Amps211]

Which is the better intro .... Foreplay/Longtime Boston or I need a lover Johnny Cougar ????

 

 

I find both of theme just fantastic ... but I need a lover is the one I have always liked a little better ... thoughts?

[The Analog Cub]

Interesting.

 

Both of those intros are excellent instrumental parts and I geek out over those, like the first part of 2112, Dream Theater's Overture 1928, etc.

 

I have to give it to Foreplay/Long Time. I Need A Lover has a great opening theme but I simply enjoy playing along with Foreplay ( :laughing guy: ) more. That intro is awesome to warm up on the guitar with.

I don't have an electric guitar anymore :( ... wish i did ... I do agree that foreplay would be the better tune to warm up with ... as foreplay should be i guess haha

Foreplay/Longtime

[Blue J]

Yes! It's Foreplay.

[EagleMoon]

Boston by a mile. :)

[toymaker]

The Mellonville thing is okay, but mostly just leads over a couple of chords with a bit of interesting dynamic stuff.

 

But...the Boston thing is just such a great riff, a great piece of music, something you can call a theme - more enduring, I think.

[djflex]

Always say yes to foreplay

[Rick N. Backer]

As with everything else in life, Boston is superior.

Not much love for my fellow Hoosier .... I get that many don't consider him as a true rocker .... But IMO he did start out that way .... I need a lover is one of my all time favorite songs ... And I do love both intros ... Just Johnny a little better

[bluefox4000]

Foreplay/Longtime.

 

it's badass
