best songs which start with '1.2.3 4!!!'
 
I say Holland, 1945.

and also some Ramones songs.


yeah, go?

Have you heard the live Ramones record It's Alive? They start almost every song with 1,2,3,4. It's insane.

There's Roadrunner by the Modern Lovers, but I think it starts off more like, "1,2,3,4,5,6..."

Does Warsaw by Joy Division count too?

Mommy Can I Go Out and Kill Tonight?-the Misfits

Apparently The Gerogerigegege has a song that starts with the usual "1,2,3,4!" but then proceeds to the sound of a man taking a shit.

I haven't heard it though.

Everyneurotic 02.16.2008 11:38 AM

any song by the gerogerigegege.

batreleaser 02.16.2008 12:17 PM

uhler 02.16.2008 01:23 PM

"Field Day Jitters" by Tripping Daisy starts out with a little random drumming, then someone clears their throat and says, "Let's do it!...1,2,3,4". Pretty awesome song.

Sonic Youth - Queen Anne Chair

This track's really great, it deserves more attention imo

Torn Curtain 02.16.2008 04:32 PM

That's not my favorite Stooges song but the intro to Shake appeal rocks.

Cantankerous 02.16.2008 04:37 PM

"free four" - pink floyd
the title is actually a pun on 1234

fascist cops - the kids (no not johnny depp's band, they're some punk band from northern europe somewhere, maybe like denmark)

Yeah that's an awesome way to start an album. And I've heard Bright Eyes go "one, two, six six six!!".

Norma J 02.16.2008 06:31 PM

Speaking of Bright Eyes, the first track on I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning counts off after his tale, 1,2, 1,2,3,4.

The whole lead up to that song is great, I laughed my head off in disbelief when I heard it. He's the greatest.
