I love the intro (I mean the first 40 seconds) to

This Dying Soul by Dream Theater

It's very simple but for some reason I just love hearing it.

The first bit of Crazy Train, before it turns into a forgettable hair metal anthem, is brilliant.

In addition to many of the choices already mentioned, I'll add

That's Entertainment - The Jam - once I've heard the first couple of chords, I have to listen to the rest of the song.

Also...
Safe from Harm - Massive Attack
Glory Box - Portishead
Loaded - Primal Scream (Just what is it that you want to do...???)
Ode to Isis - ...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead, which is pretty much the intro to the album
