I really like "Frozen Faces" by Propoganda, after a very long intro it breaks into a beautiful melodic piece of synth and bass!

My apologies for resurrecting such an ancient thread, but exactly HOW nobody mentioned Kraftwerk's "The Model" is beyond me. Knocks me off my ass everytime I hear it. Catchy as f**k.

Again, sorry for the major bump. [:I]

Funny you should say that. I saw the title of this thread and "The Model" was the first thing that came to my mind



We didn't sell a lot of records, but somehow we left an impression.

Simple Minds - Someone, Somewhere (In Summertime), a great synth chord hook!

Very surprised no one mentioned this song/hook yet, good to Secession's [i]Touch[/i] on the list too.

Please tell me you were joking or being sarcastic. It's very hard to tell when you're not using any smilies.
