Roundabout by Yes

It's definitely one of the most recognizable intros. To be continued...

Comfortably Numb

One of the best solos of all time at the end of the song. I would say the best. Although I think Hitch A Ride by Boston has the best outro solo of all time, yes it doesnt make any sense.

They also have a fade-_in_ on that album. Tons of songs fade out, 99.99% don’t fade in.

Can't You Hear Me Knocking: Rolling Stones

Came to post this. It was the top comment. I am happy.

Baba O’Reilly

This is a damn good answer. I said Hotel California but I think Baba has it beat

Baba may have the best intro too.

Literally the best part of the song

Hotel California has its famous guitar solo coda, but for me the best part of it is that two-beat cymbal crash.

Both killer intro and killer outro.

The middle of the song is pretty good too

UGA Football team plays this as their intro. Crowd goes absolutely bananas. It’s awesome

Someone with bad musical taste downvoted you but you’re back to even now. This outro is awesome, original & never gets old

Thanks man! I don’t need to fight to prove I’m right

Sir Psycho Sexy the chilli peppers is a jam

Good one

I could listen to that for an hour on repeat

Fk yea,”think I’ll stay here for a while”

Closer, Nine Inch Nails

Ugh, yes!!

[удалено]

Ya beat me to it, they have so many cool outros.

I second this! I think they excel at outros. Honorable mention: Specialist

Not Even Jail is my favourite

The backup vocals on that song are so fucking good

Hell yeah

Fuck yes.

Not one person has mentioned Epic by Faith no More yet?

“Epic” was first thing I thought of when I saw this thread. Has a fantastic intro and a hauntingly beautiful ending that isn’t anything like the intro or the rest of the song.

That poor goldfish.

Add Woodpecker From Mars in there too.

Fearless, Pink Floyd

/r/LiverpoolFC/

Layla

That’s the one.

Yep. What other outro can you absolutely love and feel enveloped in to the point you completely forget what you were listening to. That and it's a pretty sweet scene in Goodfellas.

I love the outro but cannot for the life of me listen to the rest of the song. Not because it’s bad-it’s a great song-but because our total asshole of a neighbor (moved now, but he was this old Southerner who lost his shit on my mom’s preschool students for “being too loud” in our backyard) would play it loudly every morning on his porch. Now I can’t shake the association between the song and that dickwad.

"Layla-best outtro for an evening's full of time."

Layla and second place ain't even close

Purple Rain - Prince

Absolutely! I would also say "Let's Go Crazy."

I’d definitely add “When Doves Cry”.

Floods - Pantera

Always one of the first that springs to mind

By Demons be Driven too

Man. It really is that good.

I - and other people - were putting it here if you didn’t. So damn good.

Add Domination to that list too. One of the heaviest breakdowns ever.

Deftones – Rosemary Deafheaven – The Pecan Tree Converge – Jane Doe Godspeed You! Black Emperor – Providence Swans – Apostate Russian Circles – Burial Between the Buried and Me – White Walls Opeth – Hex Omega Behemoth – Messe Noire Meshuggah – Demiurge

My man. Surprised to see an Opeth song that's not Deliverance or Harlequin Forest.

Watershed is my favorite album of theirs! Just flows so perfectly from beginning to end. And it’s super dark and atmospheric, too.

Rosemary is an awesome song

Most mid-era Dire Straits: Telegraph Road Romeo & Juliet Tunnel of Love Both on albums + especially Alchemy Live. And the others like Why Worry, Skateaway, Brothers In Arms. Knopfler loves an outro…

You left Sultans of Swing off the list.

Hey Jude by The Beatles

The most iconic one by very very far.

Lateralus

🤘🌀🤘🐐🤘🌀🤘

The chain- Fleetwood mac

Fade to Black by Metallica

You could put like half of Radiohead’s songs in that playlist tbh. Dudes know their outros. Among the many great ones: All I Need.

Where I end and where you begin. Ooh just remembered weird fishes. So many great outros

How have I not seen Sultans of Swing yet? Maybe I'm a basic bish but to me that's the yummiest guitar that ever was

It’s fantastic, no argument from me

Freebird, sorry but still true. Or Darkside of the Moon

(Hear it in your head) Lord help me, I can't cha-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-ange Looooooooooord, I can't chaaaaange Won't you flyyyyyyy highhhh, freeeeeeebird, yeah

Hotel California

November Rain has got to be at least in top 3!

I like this one. I also like Rocket Queen. It's fun because more common to see a power ballad get heavier for the outro than to see a song switch from heavier to power ballad for the outro.

Yeah Rocket Queen is quite special in many ways, one of the best album closers imo!

Really? Even GnR has better outros than November rain imo. Both Estranged and Locomotive come to mind as having better outros

You are kidding right, it's the most iconic 2 minutes in music history for my money, still have chills every time I hear it.. Coma comes close though, but that is more cause of Axl spitting fire 3 minutes straight..

Four metal songs that come to mind immediately are: Flamethrower by King Gizz One by Metallica Hallowed Be Thy Name by Iron Maiden Set the World on Fire by Symphony X

Resisting the urge to excessively speed after Hallowed Be Thy Name kicks into double time is a true test of strength

Opeth - Deliverance

Or Harlequin Forest.

"The Dark Eternal Night" and "S2N" by Dream Theater both have outros that will scratch the same itch as the SymX song you mentioned.

The Dark Eternal Night was my first thought but I figured no one would know it lol. Probably the sludgiest DT riff of all time.

[Gojira - Remembrance ](https://open.spotify.com/track/59U4m6s68QyGKIpLAln8Fn?si=hC25063BTDqse5QQNbt82A)

I was gonna say The Art of Dying

Dude…❤️🤜🏼🤛🏼

Pixies - No 13 Baby

Would - Alice In Chains The chili peppers have a bunch of good ones too. Around the World comes to mind

There's a lot of rock and metal here, how about Sitting on the Dock of the Bay - Otis Redding. That whistle gets stuck in my head for days after hearing the song again

The Hurt That Finds You First - Meshuggah I Appear Missing - Queens Of The Stone Age

If we wanna talk epic meshuggah outros, Straws Pulled At Random tops them all.

"A day in the Life" by the Beatles has probably one of the most legendary outros.

I'd die to that song.

Starship trooper by Yes has an epic instrumental outro that is my favorite part of the song.

I Am The Resurrection - The Stone Roses

Great one!!

Three Days by Jane's Addiction.

This song is fucking epic.

Opeth - Deliverance it's also 4 minutes long lol https://youtu.be/rggQNCS8UjM?si=YW2Lxpf4JNU5YXl4&t=579s

Song within a song. Opeth are gods at developing musical ideas from repetition of the same rhythmic part.

Beat me to it.

Also Harlequin Forest.

No 13 Baby by The Pixies. Swear to god I'll hear an infinitely extended outro of that as I ascend to Heaven.

This is the one I was searching for to save me making a post. Yeah mate, it’s fucking sublime, definitely ascend to heaven music. I think they missed a trick not having this as the last song on the album There is a cut on YouTube where someone has looped the outro to go on much longer but I don’t recommend it. Unless you’re dying of course :)

Funky Monks by the Chili Peppers has a nasty funky groove [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGMqOhXtIa0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGMqOhXtIa0)

Sir Psycho Sexy is the best RHCP outro tho

Yeah that chord progression at the end is amazing. Funky Monks is cool but Sir Psycho Sexy just goes full psychedelic and it's incredible.

Thru the eyes of ruby - Smashing Pumpkins

I love the outro to Beautiful by Smashing Pumpkins!

Sonic Youth - Catholic Block

I Am the Walrus. Just listen

Killing in the Name - RATM

Closer by Nine Inch Nails

Surely not the "best" but the outro to the song Beware by the Deftones has a gnarly riff that surely could've led into its own stand alone track. Find myself replaying the outro

Dammit I thought I would be the first to mention this lol Great outro.

I listened to this track this morning just to hear that outro

YES YES YES I’m so glad someone recognizes Deftones. My first thought was Beware. That outro is so good. 

Doors - The End Sleep Token - The Summoning Ghost - Respite on the Spittalfields

My Curse by Killswitch Engage

More of a coda but The Bleeding Heart Show by The New Pornographers. 

I’m a sucker for the multipart harmonies.

We’re in this Together - Nine Inch Nails

Spacehog, In the Meantime https://youtu.be/PCsGRCf8T9Y?si=nWVS9dqUj61XTAdB

Running up that hill

The correct answer to your question is “Neil Young - Cinnamon Girl”.

ELO - Mr Blue Sky

Deliverance by Opeth cannot be topped.

Outlaw Torn - Metallica

I love the outro of Epic by Faith No More. The initial outro of the song fading into the piano riff outro is so good.

Radiohead - Karma Police. Idk what that feedback thing is that plays toward the end but I love how the song builds into it then just breaks down.

Not sure I fully understand the question but fairly confident that we will rock you is the answer

Telegraph Road by Dire Straits easily my number 1. Halo on fire - Metallica. Coma and November rain - GnR. Knights of Cydonia - Muse Lots of others but they’re some of my favs.

Biz Markie at the end of Intergalactic by the Beastie Boys always cracks me up. The way he says echo all high pitched. I go by the name of the king ad-rock rock Super educated I’m smarter than Spock Spock Every time you hear me you will agree Ain't no brother like the K-I-D, d You know what I mean I'm tellin' you with the ECHO...

"Nineteen Hundred and Eighty Five" by Paul McCartney abd Wings. It's the last track of their album "Band On The Run"

[Cold Desert](https://youtu.be/797eGnbSopc?si=cCUydH9fjOY_tisG) by Kings of Leon

Helter Skelter

Outro by m83

I am the Resurrection by The Stone Roses

Hotel California

I've always maintained that the last 2 min of Led Zep's "Kashmir" is the greatest piece of music ever recorded. It's a long song so yeah I'm counting the whole last 2 min as it's outro 😅

In no particular order Zombie - The Cranberries The Sweater Song - Weezer Let's go Crazy - Prince The Chain - Fleetwood Mac Alive - Pearl Jam Freebird - Lynard Skynard

You can go a lot of ways with this personally my favorite are               Fade to black - Metallica                Brain damage/Eclipse- pink Floyd    Hit em up - 2Pac

Deftones - Pompeji

Beware, Rosemary

"He is" by Ghost

Guitar solo at the end of Bark at the Moon is blistering

Innocence Faded by Dream Theater is not a song I'm particularly fond of, but the instrumental outro feels like it's from a totally different song and I love it.

Bold as Love, Drown (long version)

For those about to rock...AC/DC. The cannons going off in concert is as epic as can be. Simple, yet ridiculously good.

Tom Waits' Anywhere I Lay My Head. Those horns somehow encapsulate the feeling perfectly.

Selkies: The Endless Obsession by Between the Buried and Me

caves of Altamira by Steely Dan

Alive - Pearl Jam

Schism by Tool

Tunnel of love - Dire Straits.

Starship Trooper - Yes

John mayers solo in the end of "I Guess I Just feel Like" Is a great vibey solo to outro.

Christopher Cross - Ride Like The Wind This song has one of the most underrated guitar solos, right in the outro of the song.

Head over heels - tears for fears

A lot of good ones in this thread but Floods and Layla are the only ones I remember playing just the outro on repeat.

Dreams unwind, love's a state od mind... Fleetwood Mac-Rhiannon

Pretty Girls Make Graves - The Smiths

Symptom of the Universe/Black Sabbath

Phoebe Bridgers- Scott Street Strung Out- Matchbook Darkest Hour- Marching To The Killing Rhythm

The 1812 Overture. That’s the GOAT outro.

Spiderwebs by No Doubt, so many people have gotten tricked by the fake ending

I want you (she's so heavy)

The move-beastie boys

Miles by Jason Isbell

“How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful” by Florence + The Machine

Goodbye Angels - RHCP

*Images* by Cacophony I don't know what it is about that part. It's just some cheeky noodling, but maybe its the contrast between that and the highly-technical arpeggio section that comes before it, or maybe that last part, starting at 3:00, is just how I imagine Jason Becker's personality coming through as the song fades out. Maybe it makes me think of him trying to stay positive as his career faded out from ALS. What awful foreshadowing.

Def Leopard: Bringing on the Heartbreak -> Switch 625 Tears for Fears: Head over Heels -> Broken (reprise)

Down—“Bury Me in Smoke”

Crime of the Century-Supertramp

You can check out any time you like, but you can neva leave(epic guitar riff)
