I'm sure this one's been done before, but poast them anyways. The judges await your submissions.
The Temptations - Papa Was A Rolling Stone
Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit (still sends shivers down my spine)
Dexy's Midnight Runners - Come On Eileen
INXS - What You Need (although they have some other strong contenders)

not sure it belongs on the same list as "papa was a rolling stone", but the intro to DCFC's "i will possess your heart" is pretty epic.

I know it cost them everything on the album, but the Rolling Stone violin intro to Bittersweet Symphony is great.
Where the Streets Have No Name - U2
Champagne Supernova - Oasis
Summer Nights - Van Halen (I could have listed a half dozen, but I'll go with that one)
D'yer Maker - Led Zepplin

Not that I sit around listening to this band anymore, or was even ever much of a fan of, but the opening to
'L.A. Woman' by The Doors
is one of the best openers to a song that I've ever heard. Perfect lead-in to a what turns out to be a full out Rock song. Not even a song that I'd ever consider a favorite but that opener is a thing of beautiful musical perfection.
