Best Track 1, Side 1s?

[Syt]

"More Than A Feeling" Boston: Eponymous.

Double points for inspiring the riff in Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit.

[Caliga]

I've sampled a couple of songs recommended here. 

I think our music tastes are...different 

Give us a few examples of your favorite songs so we can listen to them too.

I can remember the Saturday I walked into Camelot Music at the mall with my allowance and bought that album.

:fasttimesatholyshitiamold:

Given where I grew up, that song (and album) got nonstop airplay when it came out.  I never got tired of Hall and Oates though.

What's Going On - Marvin Gaye

That's all.

Have you made up your mind on whether I am an old American lady, or Chinese Empress Dowager of the Animetards?   

Depends on whether or not you're wearing curlers at the time.

Why I am just shocked that you aren't a fan of Sonic Youth and the Grateful Dead.   

Here's one for you Mono (though it's not a first song):

This one was the spotlight dance at CB and my wedding.

Anyone mentioned Only Shallow by My Bloody Valentine or I Wanna Be Adored by Stone Roses yet?

I had MBV but Stone Roses I forgot and should definitely be mentioned.

"Love Kills" Freddy Mercury Metropolis
"Silent Running" Mike + The Mechanics, Mike + The Mechanics

Meh, I love that album but does an opening track like I Wanna Be Adored actually qualify when a 4 1/2 minute song is 3 minutes' worth of fade in?

[Norgy]

The second best is "Alive" by Pearl Jam.

Not under consideration in this thread. Track 1 is "Once".

Not on the single.

As much as I liked The Stone Roses back in the day, hearing them live destroyed much of that.

The bass starts much earlier and is delicious and the riff at 1 1/2. I think it does qualify.

I'll also throw in Pantera's Cowboys From Hell.

[Norgy]

Oh, I remembered one more: Hells Bells on AC/DC's "Back in Black".

Back in its day, it was rather awesome.
