your favorite opening line to a song?

i pulled in to nazareth - the weight by the band

Good topic for movie discussion

you guys love rules. music not so much.

You posted it in the wrong forum. I've moved it. I feel like "post music threads in the music forum rather than a forum explicitly about movies" is a pretty good rule.

Not sure liking the rule is an indication of not liking music, either.

On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair

"Now this is the story all about how/ My life got flipped, got turned upside down..."

I laid in bed an hour today
Tryin' to die of natural causes
In case the Lord forgot to take me in my sleep

Please allow me to introduce myself/ I'm a man of wealth and taste

'uh' or how about 'yeaaaaah'...and this, 'one, two, three'

" Feeel sooo baaad, feel like a ballgame on a rainy day... "

Foghat

Jethro Tull wrote and delivered some great opening lines.

"Sitting on a park bench, eyeing little girls with bad intent"
"Really don't mind if you sit this one out"
"In the shuffling madness, of the locomotive breath"

"They say that these are not the best of times, but they're the only times I've ever known..."
Billy Joel, "Summer, Highland Falls"

I did my best but I guess my best wasn't good enough

In this world you tried, Not leaving me alone behind


D'you breathe the name, and Of your savior in your hour of need

Another favourite opening line of mine:

Baby cried the day the circus came to town

*when I say 'mine' I am not in any way trying to imply I wrote it
**yes, the above disclaimer is primarily there in case Mister Wootf says something to that effect

I would have typed it, but i take your meaning.
