Killer Riff/ Chorus/ Intro

For me:

Deep Purple - Smoke on the Water
Anthrax - Indians
Babylon A.D. - Bang Go the Bells
Iron Maiden - Wasted Years
Judas Priest - Painkiller
Ozzy - Lightning Strikes
Dokken - In My Dreams
Ratt - Lay It Down

These are the ones that are most embedded into my brain meat. I keep comong back to them even if I haven't played the particular tune in a while. What you got, HoM?

'deth-Holy Wars Pretty much all the time.
AC/DC-Thunderstruck
The Cult-War(the process)

Queensryche - Revolution Calling, has been stuck in my head for a week now.

Celtic Frost-A Dying God Coming into Human Flesh

I have "Wouldn't It Be Nice"... by ? I keep changing the lyrics in my head and it just keeps getting funnier.

Right now I got Sugar Sugar by the Archies in my head and I have no idea why

These aren't metal, but they stick in my head for hours if I hear them...

The Fixx - One Thing Leads to Another
Tears For Fears - Head Over Heals
Naked Eyes - Always Something There To Remind Me
Oingo Boingo - Just Another Day
The Tubes - She's A Beauty

That track by The Fixx is a major earworm for me too. So is the main riff from their "Saved By Zero"

You don't really need any other riffs, just these three

As for intros



Unsettled the crap out of me as a kid!

Awesome choices. "Emperor" is a killer tune. On a somewhat related note, I was listening to Extreme Aggression on my lunch break today. I needed that album today.

The other day, I had 'Karma Chameleon' by Culture Club stuck in my head and it was driving me nuts. I don't know why. It's not like I'd just heard it or anything. It just popped in there and stuck for some reason.

Hehe Ive had that one in my head too not recently

I got LoveSong by the Cure in my head today

Great song.

Here's one for that gets stuck in your head for days.

Woke up to the Pull Me Under intro in my head today. What does it mean?

I can't believe I forgot to add this one. It's been rattlin' around my brain for over 3 decades.

I sometimes awake - from sleep - to a song riff.
It's amazing.
A few days ago - it was Alice in Chains -
" It Ain't Like That Anymore " -

I can still hear it - those 3 distinct parts -
It may be because I'm also reading a book about them.
They weren't such a bad band.
I seem to like - easily - 1/2 their material.
But wow - Layne - was an addict.
500 dollars a day - way back then !

Every since Friday I do t know why Madonna’s “Crazy For You” has been in my head and I don’t even listen to that song? I just remember it from Vosion Quest and one of my bros had the soundtrack on cassette.

Ahhh, Crap now it's stuck in my head too..

Okay, Here is one for you.  Love Denny Carmassi's  drums on this record. Turn up to volume 11

I have stumbled across some of that uploader's vids on youtube from time to time. One word - awesome.

I always liked the intro to Maiden's Caught Somewhere In Time. It came on this morning while I was working out and brought back into prominence for me.
