That is absolutely fantastic, but if I had to choose a favorite Beach House moment, it would be the outro of Lover of Mine as outlined in my location.

The "...turning the joint upside down" sample in this song, most prominent between 2:27 and 2:44

In the chorus of the live version of Moonage Daydream, Ronson plays three chords, I believe a G, a D and a barre E. That barre E with that tone just sounds perfect to me every time. First appearance from 0:48 to 0:51.

This has become my favorite Shearwater song, because it pretty much covers everything I like about the band in 5 minutes. Meiburg sings the entire second verse in his "normal" voice, which is fairly uncommon for him. The moment where he flips from his normal voice back to falsetto around 2:10 always blows me away.

As a side note, the song was just as stunning live. Blew me away that Meiburg was able to hit every note without looking like he was straining.

Sometimes it's as simple as the sentiment of the lyric or the delivery of the lyric for me.

Time to resurrect this thread already. I listened to (part of) The King of Limbs for the first time in a long while yesterday. The second half is still amazing with Codex being the highlight. The part that starts at about 02:15 makes me want to cry each time. I also found the following video which fits the song perfectly. You should watch the whole thing.

^Nice pick with Codex there. But my personal favourite part of the song is probably 3:35 until the end. Sounds magical!
Nice idea for a thread.

Codex is superb. I kind of wish they'd played it instead of Pyramid Song the second night I saw them, but then again, I got to hear Pyramid Song twice so I can't really complain.

The crowd was fucking terrible during Codex at my show. Just a bunch of drunk slobs who couldn't handle a little downtime.
Yeah I love the song but I didn't mind missing it live. The added studio effects and the horns are essential to the song. It's a bit like Pyramid Song. I loved it but the second verse missed that extra the punch that the studio version has.

Yes. And I really love that little bass part that comes right before this moment.
Speaking of D-Plan and Plans specifically, my favorite moment on the album, and perhaps from the whole band is after the final (proper) line of the whole thing is sung, and Morrison plays that little bubbly keyboard part.
It's not super clear on the YouTube audio, but it gives me that same feeling you're talking about (4:17).

A song loved by many, with a killer intro. But my favorite moment is near the end when Bernard Sumner (a sadly underrated guitarist) strums his guitar 5 times over 7 seconds. So simple, and yet this is what makes me smile the most each time I hear this song (4:14-4:21).

I'm just picturing the description in my head, and I'm quite sure I know what part you're talking about, and yeah, it's awesome.

After all these years, "You Are Invited" is still easily my favorite Dismemberment Plan song.

I think I'd agree, though it hasn't been years for me.

There's another five or so minutes after that part, but yes, that's one of my favourite moments in any song ever. Life-affirming.

You guys got me thinking about how awesome that part of Echoes is. Now I have put Meddle in my car CD wallet after a long time! Well done.
Lifes Rich Pageant really is a fantastic album, isn't it?! Maybe their best one from the 80s.

His work on the end of Pigs saves that song from becoming a bit of a monotonous bore, but yeah, that's a ripper outro.
There are days when i think Animals is their best album. Exactly cause of moments like this.
