    I love the parts of songs when all 5 band members get up off their stools at the same time. You cant beat that,

    Get out of here by thin lizzy, the bass line at the start is Brilliant and the last few lines are great:

    " And ive become bitter, but i believe that this is better, not matter, whatever, whenever, we can never stay together "

    or the killers, in one of the songs off the album Hot fuzz ( honestly cant remember the name of the song )

    where they used the hook line " ive got soul but im not a soldier "

    Choras of "Kinky Afro" is great! The end of the backwards version of "Hell Awaits" by Slayer, sly one! :) The bass at the begining of "Peace Sells" by Megadeth. In the video of "5 Minutes Alone" by Pantera, I love when Dimebag drags, then he lifts the whammy and all strings drop, excellent guitarist. First hearing "Children" by Robert Miles.

    OK probably not the best but one that comes to mind is:
    Stay Away on Nevermind.
    Just after the great drum solo (and before the last chorus) where Kurt just lets out a climactic, primal scream.
    Really cathartic- the whole song leads up to it.
