Song parts? Sure! From the opening strains of Heart's "Barracuda" to the end of The Doors' "The End", sometimes there are pieces of songs that are cooler than the song itself.

We're going to begin counting them down with a new 5 every day starting now. Plus, as an added bonus, you can listen to the song clips in most of these features and even buy the CD at Amazon if you so desire. So without further adieu...

I don't agree with all their choices, but the list does have some interesting entries. Like this one. For my money, however, the best song part of all time is the moment of the Kind of Blue song "Blue in Green" when Miles Davis' trumpet seeps into what began as a bittersweet Bill Evans piano solo--I still get goosebumps whenever I hear it; it's like I've been transported to another world. A close runner up is the brief moment of the Beatles' song "The Fool on the Hill" right before the flute solo: it's some sort of flange, synth effect that sounds pretty cosmic and cool (alas, I could not find a sample for this one).
