<strong>The intro to Jeremy by Pearl Jam defines an era of music for me. I think it's classic (at least it is now, since it's 10 years old. man, I'm getting old</strong><hr></blockquote>
I'm torn for "... to a Rock song." Best overall, though, I can tell you for sure.
The harpsichord solo in the Allegro Movement of Bach's brandenburg concerto 5. Makes that solo from Eruption sound like a slow stroll through the park.
While I agree there are better Smiths opening riffs (Marr is a guitar hero of mine) HSIN's opening is so bloody distinctive and recognizable--like "Layla." That's why I chose it.
Personally, I prefer the opening riff of "This Charming Man."
I saw The Smiths 14 years ago--and Johnny Marr was tremendous. One of the best live shows I've seen.

I got to see them twice, first time on the Meat IS Murder Tour, absolutely incredible show. One of two times I've been at a show where they brought up the houselights, but people were going so nuts the band had to come back out and play another couple of songs.
