I don't even consider that a riff in the BJ song.

(might be nice to add a FF to with videos that have long intros like that)
Like I did in "Solo Wars!" ... not that anyone cares

Gotta go with the majority here: that Billy Joel song is just boring.

Guess Who - 4
Blow Job sorry Billy Joel - 1

The Billy joel song actually has a decent riff but it's very atmospheric and blends in with the feel of the song

GW 5
BJ 2

If you were going to use a BJ riff you shoulda used "You may be right" IMO.

Thought about that one, but I decided on "Keeping the Faith" because the riff is more complex. Apparently it was a bad choice.

Come to think of it, I think the riff on Moving Out would have clobbered the Guess Who.

Only Pet_Sounds would put any Guess Who song other than "American Woman" in a thread about riffs. Srsly.

Rizzo - 1
Bucket - 0

The bucket song had good riffs but the Rizzo riffs were just better. i specially like how it goes from electric to acoustic and back again.
