I'm sure they've been mentioned already but here's some good ones:

Steppenwolf - Born To Be Wild

The Who - Teenage Wasteland

Led Zeppelin - Immigrant Song

Free Bird



I thought about that one, but it's not the intro (which is great), but the bridge (all 4+ mins of it) that really rocks in Freebird. It's why I went with Sweet Home Alabama instead. Everyone, including Tennessee fans, can name that tune in 4 notes...

Europe - "The Final Countdown." I dare you to listen to this and not get fired-up.

This was my first thought. Another contemporary option is

Tom Petty “Even the Losers”
10 or so seconds of drums followed by some chick saying “It’s just the normal noises in here” followed by the real intro to the song. LINK

I’m going to comment again. I know it’s a fairly new song then most posted but:

Highly Suspect - My Name is Human

I love when he inhales and says OK and the beat drops.
