You know how some songs have a big,climactic ending? Of those types of songs,which are your favorites? Here's some of mine to get you started:
Iron Maiden-"Flight Of Icarus"(love that big scream at the end)
Iron Maiden-"Powerslave"
Metallica "The Call Of Ktulu"
So,what songs go out with a bang for you? |

Sabbath's War Pigs - still love that cheesy "tape speed-up" effect at the end. |

I think it sucks, but I can't think of a specific good ending right now. Heading Out to the Highway. That's a good one.
On Accept "The Collection" they have a full length version of "Princess Of The Dawn" with a non-cut-off ending. Nothing real great, but certainly better than the ending we're all used to.
As for big finishes:
Lynyrd Skynyrd-Live version of "Free Bird" (Hey SOMEONE had to mention it!)
Metal Church-"Metal Church"
Helloween-"Keeper Of The Seven Keys" |

I'm ambiguous to endings in songs. I like either the dramatic buildup that leads to the ending, an abrupt ending or the typical fade-out in a song, but some of my choices that come to mind here would be the following:
Metallica "The Call Of Ktulu"
Piledriver "Witch Hunt"
Judas Priest "Freewheel Burning"
Pat Travers "Snortin' Whiskey" and "Born Under A Bad Sign"
Savatage "By The Grace Of The Witch"
AC/DC "Whole Lotta Rosie"
Nuclear Assault "Brainwashed"
Nashville Pussy "Fried Chicken And Coffee"
Monster Magnet "Space Lord" (this is not favortism -- the fadeout has an eerie ambient feeling to it) |
