Favourite Sounds In Songs In Music?

Probably could find a better title, but good enough.
What are your favourite sounds in music? And no, not the whole song. Little bits, whether it be a single sound that plays for 2 seconds, a guitar solo, a guitar sound, atmospheric effects, the vocals of the song, whatever you can think of, as long as it’s not just the whole song. Be a specific as you like.

For me,
1. ‘Seagulls’ in Tomorrow Never Knows by The Beatles.
2. The opening vocals of Lovely Rita by The Beatles.
3. Bob Marley’s vocals on Rebel Music when he sings the “Ahhhh”, before singing “Rebel music”.
4. The subtle sound of the bass rattling everything in the room at the beginning of Dazed and Confused by Led Zeppelin.
5. The bass playing by John in Helter Skelter by The Beatles.

 

I'll mention two moments from David Bowie's "Heroes"
1. The way Robert Fripp's sizzling guitar part cuts through the pulsating wall of white noise that is the backing track
2. Bowie's shouted vocals during the second half of the song

 

Birds and bells in Xanadu
Breaking glass in YYZ and Fee
Car horns and burps in Camera Eye
The horns/cymbals ‘fall-off’ at the end of Green Flower Street

 

- The 'No, I won't!' snippet at the start of 'The Garden' by Guns N' Roses
- The laughter somewhere in Chicago's 'Free Form Guitar'
- Toilet flushing in Chicago's 'Elegy (IV: Progress)'
- 'Geez!' in Green Day's 'Rock And Roll Girlfriend', though I first thought it's 'Cheese!'

 

As narcisscs is turned to a flower.

A FLOWER?

bum bum bum bum...

 

I prefer the ending of "Don't Step On The Grass, Sam" by Steppenwolf.

 

The whistling. The match being struck. The drag on the cigarette. The uncorking. The pouring. The sip. The clattering spoons. The bleats. The honk.

 

A whole lot of little snippets on the new They Might Be Giants album. An example is on The Greatest when he sings "I Listen Close", there are very faint chimes or cow bells you can just hear

 

Whistle
Highway 61 Revisited
Bob Dylan

 

I'd also like to add that on Girl by The Beatles, John's (I think) guitar (I think) sort of has a cool sound at times that's incredibly faint. There's also a less faint sound that plays every now and then that I can't describe that I so wish was higher in the mix. I don't blame you if you have no idea what I'm talking about.
Also Paul's vocals on Drive My Car are brilliant.

 

The brief feedback on "Bluebird", by Buffalo Springfield, right after "strangest color blue".

 

The honking horns and jack hammer in Summer in the City by the Lovin' Spoonful.

 

Guitar/vocal delays, the "tink, tink, tink" of a ride bell and the most wunnerful noise of them all... the crash cymbal.

 

The use of Paul Tanner's electrotheremin in Good Vibrations by The Beach Boys.

 

The rain in The Cowsills The Rain, The Park and Other Things (aka I Love the Flower Girl).

 

Clapton's weeping guitar solo in George Harrison's While My Guitar Gently Weeps.

 

I adore the guitar tone in Smashing Pumpkins "Rocket."

 

Mellotron at King Crimson's Prince Rupet Awakes

 

This one's hard to explain so I'll post the YouTube video. The pedal steel guitar / slide guitar call and response duet between Duane and Dickie a little over a minute into the Allman Brothers Band's Midnight Rider. Hauntingly beautiful!

 

The alarm clocks, the ticking clocks, the opening bass notes, and rototoms in the first two minutes of Time by Pink Floyd.

 

The sound of the storm in the The Doors' Riders on the Storm.

 

Ok, the soulful bass bottom of-Beauty's Only Skin Deep..the too cool backing vocals[found love-found love]in the soul classic-I Don't Have To Shop Around[The Mad Lads]..the killer fade[oh yeah]of The Hunter Gets Captured By The Game..the killer opening of the gem-When You Walked In[Five Royales]..the almost heavenly trumpets that open-The Girl's Alright With Me..the great nature sounds that open The Tymes[So Much In Love].

 

The drum intro on Ferry Cross The Mersey, by Gerry & The Pacemakers

 

Seagulls and ocean at the end of Elton John's Sweet Painted Ladies.

 

Cowbell and Charlie's drumming at the beginning of Honky Tonk Woman.
