Best Album Opener

I saw the topic about Queen's best album opener...now besides Queen...what album has the best opener?

I say "Funeral For A Friend/ Love Lies Bleeding" on the Goodbye Yellow Brick Road by Elton John...

What do you think?

Cheers

Shine On You Crazy Diamond

I was just thinking that!

52nd Street has a great album opener! "Yes, you had to be a big shot, didn't ya, you had to open up your mouth.. You had to be a big shot, didn't ya, all your friends were so knocked out..." XD

Hell yeah! Also, "The River Of Dreams" has a great opening song.

By the way, ChinesedogTorture, your signature is from my favorite song on "52nd Street". Good choice!

Future Legend on Diamond Dogs. Bowie you know ;) it's scary yet fascinating.

Enter Sandman.

Thanks! I love that song, specially that part that begins, "When the sun goes down
And the day is over..." It's just so full of emotion. :)

The end of everything - Trivium

I second that... other ones might be...

'Welcome To The Jungle'
'Smells Like Teen Spirit'
'Shine On Your Crazy Diamond'
'Apocalypse Please'
'Battery'

A Beautiful Day...from my own up-coming CD :)

I think Alice Cooper's "Welcome to My Nightmare."

^ Besides Elton...i think that's a pretty good one...

Cheers

Tie Your Mother Down, Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Welcome To The Jungle, Black Dog, Hello, Cherub Rock, Where The Streets Have No Name...and I'm loving Pope John Paul from the Lovely Feathers is one of the best openers I've heard lately.

Apocalypse Please - Muse
Rattlesnake - Live
