What are the specific moments in certain songs, maybe just a few seconds, maybe one single measure, maybe even a solitary note, that you absolutely love?
Here are the 2 that come to my mind very quickly...
Sonic Youth - The Sprawl: This might be my favorite song ever. Anyway, the part I'm talking about is at around 1:53. The band starts playing the main riff of the song, and by this point I've become sort of lost in the song; it really has some sort of transcendental effect on me. Anyway, they repeat this riff six times, and on the sixth, just as I feel like I'm drifting out somewhere in the next universe, suddenly there are three snare drum slams and they launch into the next verse. The reason I love this part is because I can never anticipate exactly when this is going to happen, unless I happen to be concentrating really hard on it. Genius!
And on shorter, less complex note...
Depeche Mode - World in my Eyes: At the beginning, when the beat kicks in. Woohoo!
