And to think Slash did the intro as a laugh something to do with circus music.

Metallica-One. Leads into the song brilliantly.
Or maybe Pink Floyd-Shine on you crazy diamond...

Blur Song2 or Nirvana's Smells like Teen Spirit. My ultimate had to be Manic Street Preachers La Tristesse Durera.

Can't believe Smoke on the Water hasn't got a mention or another Blackmore tune "Man on the Silver Mountain" (which sounds suspiciously like the intro to Money for Nothing albeit a lot earlier)

My favourite is yet another one of Mr Blackmore's, Rainbows "Tarot Woman"

Hmmmm, difficult. I think the intro to 'Where The Streets Have No Name' does it for me, that ringing guitar sound that The Edge gets just makes my spine tingle.
[edit] Yep, just played the intro, and that organ, with the guitar coming in, then the drums with the bass just after...went all tingly listening to it. Never fails. [/edit]
