One that comes immediately to mind for me is "New York City Cops" by the Strokes. I love this song but god damn is the vocal intro retarded. I feel shame for Julian Casablancas every time I hear it.



Ow!

I mean: Agh!

No, I didn't mean that at all.

I like that intro! I think it's meant playfully, to mock his own vocal ticks, that he uses throughout that album.
