Cannons Ahoy
The Great Pretender
Post here examples of songs with great and original endings.
Personally I often find it boring if a song just fades out, I think a great ending makes a song even more unique.
I think Angel of Death by Slayer ends on a cool note, the guitars play a regular power chord but the bass note is something weird and makes it sound really cool and HEAVY.
Also the studio version of War Pigs has a cool ending when the recording speeds up. Apparently the studio engineer made that up and not the band but it's a neat effect nonetheless.
Then 2112 by Rush. It ends with the band going full frenzy after the epic outro, and then a "transmitted" voice signal from a spaceship, declaring "Attention all planets of the Solar Federation. We have assumed control." A great climax to the epic.
