The best song that opened an album

[Johnny Stew]

Hands down, "Big Love"... in my opinion.

[cliffdweller]

And might I add that "Over and Over" is the worst song to start any album?

Sorry, but it's a downright yawnfest of a song, and to open with it? What were they thinking?

[Hawkeye]

1. Over and Over
2. What's The World Coming To?
3. Monday Morning
4. Coming Your Way
5. Child Of Mine

An Opener I don't like is Second Hand News

Well, I don't really agree with the "yawnfest" part...but, it really sucks as an album opener. They should've ENDED one of the LP sides with it. They should've opened Tusk with "Honey Hi".


Oh BTW, I voted for "Love In Store"....because it was my favorite of the ones listed.

Since "Emerald Eyes" wasn't on the list, I voted for "Second Hand News".

Talking to My Heart is actually a realy nice song and I almost want to vote for it. However, SHN is the one I listen to the most and prob. enjoy the most. It depends on my mood.
Anyone else like Talking to My Heart?

[Claudia]

Me!! And I almost voted for it too... But I ended up voting for 'Over & Over'.

Over and Over is my favorite out of all of those songs, but it just doesn't work as an opener. However, the moody vibe of the song really gives you an idea of what the album is going to be like. I went with Second Hand News because it's so much fun and an excellent opener.

I like the song, a lot, actually...I just didn't think it made that great of an opener. They should've opened Time with "I Do", then had "Talking To My Heart" second.

Two of my fave openers...along with "Heroes Are Hard To Find" & "This Is The Rock", too.

[ontheEdgeof17]

I went with Skies (Sky's) The Limit. I dunno why...just like it as an opener.

I'm going to have to go with "Second Hand News" for the fade-in, catchy/upbeatness (Is upbeatness a word? ), and especially for the bam..bam...bams! You got to love those.

You know while I don't like this song all that much, I love the way it punches the speakers. I dont like I don't wanna know either, but this does the same effect too!
