My Favorite Guitar Riffs

Nothing is better in music than a good guitar riff.  I don't need a four minute guitar solo, just a catchy riff that I can hum to all day.  Here are some of my favorites (in no particular order), some are well-known, others you probably have never heard of (or will again).  Click the link for the song.

Hopefully this isn't too redundant in comparison to my favorite songs list.  I admit though, it's heavily influenced by it.  But, there is enough obscurities in here to keep it somewhat fresh.
