The greatest opening song for an album

Jeez, it's a pick 'em, and across quite a few styles. Usually the opener is an exciting song, so it's a bit too easy to get pumped up. I had a short list, but it ended up not being so short.
 

 
I've racked my brain and the best I can come up with is:

 
Burning from the first note of the album "turbo".



First track of the album "return of the product".



Burnin' sky...........let's see if "5 finger death punch" could rock this hard in thier prime..........much less 40 years later.



The opening song to the album that changed everything.

I always liked Once as the opening to Ten (slow intro then that opening riff is perfect compliment to the lyrics):

ok jk but this was like my life-album growing up and I loved this song to start it off

into this song


into this song





and 'Make Me Bad' comes after that. 'Issues' is probably my most listened to album of all times.
 
 
Oh, shit. How could I forget about this. Perhaps one of the most iconic openings to an album ever. As soon as you hear the Tom and snare hits, you just know you're about to hear a great album.

 
A lot of great ones have been mentioned so far. My favorite:
