Greatest Opening Lines to a song

Slayer - Angel of death

Auschwitz, the meaning of pain
The way that I want you to die
Slow death, immense decay
Showers that cleanse you of your life
 
Not really great but I’ve just been listening to a bit of UK Subs and realised that the opening lines to ‘Stranglehold’ are a bit Lostprophety.

Yeah, some little girls got a hold on me

She’s only 13 but oh so sweet

Got me down on my knees

Got a stranglehold on me.
 
Bad News Bad News Bad News
For you and you and you and you and you
Bad News Bad News Bad News
For you and you and you and you and you

Can't you see Black Leather?
Can't you hear Devil Woman?
Can't you see Screaming Virgins?
Don't you know bloodlust paranoid metal!
 
A few years ago on my birthday
I had just turned 21 ( I remember)
I had a lot to live I had a lot to give
Till a man comes to give me a gun

And although that war he sent me to didn't claim me
If I'm bitter don't blame me
It's just my soul responding

Smokey Robinson.
One of the best protest songs covering the issues facing black and native Americans.

(Let me tell you now, I'm on a reservation
Living in a state of degradation
What's a soul supposed to do)

Just had a look on Spotify and their full catalogue is on it. Unbelievably they have 246.1k monthly listeners.

Strange world.
