Which do you think is the most addicting melody/riff - Page 2

Addicting melody? 

How about the keyboard melody from a-ha's "Take On Me" ?

It stays in my head, um, pretty much all the time. 

I'd say this song is one of the best containers for addicting melodies that I know.

The first one starts at around 1:45, although it's a developing melody and continues until about 3:10.

The next one at 3:50.

And the last at 5:45.

(The genre is indie/post-rock.)

i win!!!!!! i can't believe no one put this

If you have never heard this then you are in for a real treat.

This is black magic at its best and if you have never done drugs before then i guarantee you will want to after hearing this.

Sit back lay your head back and close your eyes and afterwards you will want to send me roses.

I almost guantee this is what kurt cobain was listening to during his final minutes.

BTW skip to 1:53

******EDIT*********

i'm sorry to anyone i might have offended by putting this but i never stated what type  of music it was.

I personally can listen to this over and over.  This is not a joke and i honestly don't see how someone

would think that it was.  To anyone that took the time to listen to it, please let the full song finish

and i highly suggest skipping to 1:53

And also i suggest downloading the actual song or if someone had the actual cd and ripped it

lossless or flac then that would be awesome to have sent to me.

I pick The White Stripes' "Seven Nation Army." For me, the most memorable (and melodic) riff to come along in years... it's hard to beat Jack.

okay.  seriously.

that was the equivalent of being rick-rolled.

while i wasn't expecting rick astley to start playing, i certainly wasn't expecting ted nugent either!

pretty funny, dude.

but, on a serious note, stranglehold has a pretty nice riff, i'll admit.

Here you go, because it is completely addictive (and I like the video)

Sorry, but when this gets in my head I can't get it out.  

Hexagram by Deftones

Sweet Child O Mine - Guns N Roses

Addicting melody? Tetris (Korobeiniki).

Gimme Shelter - Rolling Stones

Epic intro

lol for weird video.

The melody from Chris Rea - down on the beach stays with me as does The Stranglers - Golden Brown

So yea, I want to know which riff/melody in a song you think is the most addicting! Oh and please try and include a video and where in the video said melody/riff starts

 

I'll start it off..

 

I've always been a fan of melodic, riff heavy metal. Celtic folk metal best showcases what I truly like. This is a song by a band called Eluvietie. They are one of the best celtic folk metal bands out there. Wait until the chorus, and you'll see exactly what I mean. That flute melody is just too addicting! I play this song over and over and it has yet to get old. Again, for those of you who aren't so much into metal I ask that you bear with me until the chorus so you can hear the flute melody, its worth it.

 

 

Wow the flute is great in that song! I don't usually listen to that kind of music but that is really catchy.
