By far and away the best 52 seconds of intro of the rock era.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

I don't know that it is the 'best ever' and it is quite short, but it is instantly recognizable and puts me in a good mood every time.

A lot of Chuck Berry, this might not be as sharp as the Yes song in intro but still, outstanding, I think I like the song part more though than "Roundabout":

"Silver Wheels intro", I had never heard that term:

Speaking of Van Halen this is a pretty good intro.  Yeah I'll freely admit my musical tastes are pretty pedestrian.
