Someone at the BBC has too much time on his hands.

Here's one for Vance...
Yes - Heart Of The Sunrise
1:45 - 2:10 - Steve Howe gradually bringing back the main riff over top of Chris Squire's bass breakdown

Oh yes, absolutely great. I would argue for all of the intro to Close to the Edge prior to the lyric vocals, as well. Nothing like it before or since.

towards the end of Aladin Sane, I love the way the piano just starts to get ridiculous.  Then there's on that same album, towards the end of what might be called "let's spend the night together" (?) there is some sound effect that is really awesome.  Something caused by the guitar I think.

That moment everyone gets once, where you put on Sloan's Twice Removed, listen to Penpals for the first time, and around the time of the Norwegian boy, there's that lyrical reveal of "oh, that's what this is about!"

Brilliant.

From its first second, the buzzing drone of Robert Fripp's guitar on Bowie's Heroes.

DMZ - DON'T JUMP ME MOTHER


At the 0:15 mark, Monoman's scream, then the riff that follows. I know Tom's not taking any more theme song suggestions, but I still believe this one would have been a great choice. God knows it makes ME want to punch people in the face whenever *I* hear it.
