The nine-note progression before the outro in "Sprawl II" is probably my all-time favorite.
The horns at the beginning of "Welcome to the World of the Plastic Beach." ESPECIALLY the Glastonbury 2010 version. The synth line during CHVRCHES' "Tether" The bass line in "You Want It Darker" The vocals fading between channels during "Ribs" The angry, almost violent guitar during "Papers (Hades Finds Out)" Hi-hat taps at the beginning of Sinatra's NY, NY The massive, blown out intro to "Mirrored Sea" The sax lick at the beginning of "What's Going On" The bass riff in "The Chain" "But what will we do when we're sober?" (also the horns. THE HORNS.) The transition in "Come On! Feel The Illinoise!"
Obligatory Radiohead pick: Percussion and bass kicking in in "Jigsaw Falling Into Place"
More, because why not
The reverb clap at 2:15 in "Gone" by Charli XCX "Or...or this place!" The drop in "Wait For It" "There's a room where the light won't find you!" Paul Weller screaming "Going Underground" at 1:48 The first transition in Zep's "Babe, I'm Gonna Leave You" Del's entrance in "Clint Eastwood" The flourish before the chorus in "Bizarre Love Triangle" The opening notes of "Intervention" 4:30-5:00 in "Whirring" by the Joy Formidable The super deep bass coming in during Push's verse in "Brother's Keeper" The first verse in "Never Fight a Man With a Perm" The chorus in "Suspicious Minds"

The opening acoustic part to Over the Hills and Far Away, my favorite Zep song. Or, in Houses of the Holy, when Plant rips off the "you know-ow-ow-ow-ow" at the end of one of the verses.
The Band "Don't Do It" from The Last Waltz, about 3:30 minutes in when all the instruments drop out and Levon sings the line "my biggest mistake was loving you too much" and BAM all the instruments come back in perfect unison. this whole song just fuckin' bangs.
Beat drop / “My bitch a choosy lover never fuck with out a rubber” from Pimp C immediately following Andres legendary, beautiful poem about love and marriage on Intl Players Anthem.
Beginning of guitar solo on I Dont Want it By Ween
Climax of Ill Believe In Anything by Wolf Parade right after “look at the trees, look at my face, look at a place far away from here” through the next time he says “so give me your eyes, I need sunshine.”
As little Fame of Mop comes in over the U Don’t Know remix (Jay Z BP2) and scream “1, 2, 3... and mothafucker we comin, a hundred miles and gunnin” as basically the hardest hiphop beat of all time drops
When the nas come in on hey jude
Beginning guitars to raining blood
get chills every time he SWEET JONES' (including this morning)

re: int'l players anthem, agree 100%. would also add the first time the vocals stop and you hear the aaaAAAAaaaaAAAAaaaAAAaaaAAA vocal sample clearly. such brilliant production on that song.
re: ween, that whole guitar solo is one of my favorites of all time. dean ween isn't the most technically talented guitarist, but he's so soulful and his tone is so sweet.
re: raining blood, stating the obvious but also when the double kick drums come.
i'd also put up a slayer lyric from later in their career from "Disciple":
I got my own philosophy I hate everyone equally You can't tear that out of me No segregation, separation Just me in my world of enemies
it's a very punk rock lyric that is simultaneously anti-hate and full of hatred at the same time, and comes at the musical peak of the song. so good.

This is basically sex.
Edit: I've got to make a nomination for Further On Up the Road when Clapton's guitar strap breaks and Robbie Robertson comes in perfectly to carry the opening solo. The song peaks right there, like 45 seconds in.

Dj Paul and juicy j made that beat for project pat. Apparently pimp c called Paul from prison because he wanted it.

The Decemberists “The Hazards of Love 4 (The Drowned)” is the song I want played if I ever marry again. The true definition of “til death do us part”. The entire rock opera is moving, but this song, from 3:50 on has a special hold on me. Fuck.
Oh, Margaret the lapping waves Are licking quietly at our ankles Another bow, another breath This brilliant chill is comfort a shackle
With this long last rush of air We'll speak our vows in starry whisper And when the waves came crashing down He closed his eyes and softly kissed her
But I culled you and I called you here (Didn't I? Didn't I? Didn't I?) And I caught you and I brought you here (Didn't I? Didn't I? Didn't I?) These hazards of love never more will trouble us And these hazards of love never more will trouble us
We're all a mess of paradoxes. Believing in things we know can't be true. We walk around carrying feelings too complicated and contradictory to express. But when it all becomes too big, and words aren't enough to help get it all out, there's always music.

The first time I listened to Standards by Tortoise, I was blown away. Low key one of my favorite albums ever. I got the feels on the first track 1:56 in when John McEntire and John Herndon start in on the dual drumming. After almost 2 full minutes of distortion and some freak star spangled banner shit, there’s some silence and then booming drums to set up Jeff Parker for the remainder of the track.
Magnet once called it "Tortoise makes like Herbie Hancock wandering through the '80s, all lost at the jazz-fusion supermarket.“ Then gave it a 20 out of 100. Fun Fact: Magnet Magazine died and Tortoise still lives.

i was relistening to this the other week when I was submitting songs for the 2001 playlist and I couldn't pick a song to submit because they were all so good. love that album.
cdevaney, the delivery of that line from harvey danger has always been a highlight since I first heard that song forever ago. good one.
might not count since it's technically two songs, but on the Nine Inch Nails album "The Fragile" the moment when "The Frail" ends and you hear those first notes of "The Wretched".
