Ok, The idea for this thread is to post artist and song title of songs that have become so huge that they can be named on the first note, cord, drumbeat, etc. I will start:
ZZ Top "Tush"

Van Halen "Hot For Teacher"

Hells Bells.
In reply to Toyman01:
The funny thing is, I like that song, but when I hear the bells and then the music starts I'm always disappointed that it's not metallica "For whom the bell tolls"
I failed last night. I thought Badfish was Santaria.
Zep: Black Dog.

Or Whole Lotta Love. Frankly, if you're listening to it at home on a decent setup, you don't even need the first note - you just need to hear Robert Plant's laugh.
Some others:
Talking Heads - Psycho Killer
Clash - London Calling
Not EEEVen.
Fat Lip and In Too Deep by Sum 41, as well as Heroes Get Remembered, Legends Never Die by Four Year Strong.

Plant says it on Physical Graffiti, I think.
A stoner in my civics class in high school used to sit in the back of the class and blurt out "Not even" or "That's gonna be the one".

Maybe it's a generational thing.
I posted this earlier, but my phone ate it apparently.
Hard Day's Night is pretty much the standard for this. That opening chord has probably been the subject of doctoral dissertations.
Honorable mention: "Oh my god, Becky..."
Also, the opening notes from Beethoven's 5th.
What about Stinkfist by Tool?
Nominate this thread as the only place ever to see Beethoven's Fifth Symphony and "Stinkfist by Tool" mentioned in adjacent posts in the same thread.
Iron man and war pigs by black Sabbath, journey to the end of the east bay from rancid.
In my teenage years I was really really good at this game with the local classic rock station.
Honorable mention: the distance by cake, smoke 2 joints by sublime (how many other songs open with a bong hit?)
Funk 49, how the Hell could I forget that
The iPod classic actually has this as a game built in, IIRC. Not sure if the latest generation does.
Marvin Gaye - Let's Get It On
R. Kelly - Bump N Grind
The Real Slim Shady - Eminem
Lose Yourself - Eminem
No Sleep Til Brooklyn - Beastie Boys
Enter Sandman - Metallica
Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana
...and last and certainly least...
Photograph - Nickelback.
