Now, I'm very much in the U2 are shit and Bono's a nob camp but in this instance the U2 nomination perfectly fits the bill. Unlike most of the songs in this thread 'Where the streets have no name' is both an iconic 80s anthem and has a great intro.
It's also one of the few songs of there's that doesn't make me want to gouge my eyes out and pour acid in my ears.

About 15 years ago a Locksmith mate of mine called me on a Sunday asking if I wanted to do a Lock change in Brighton for someone who'd had their keys stolen because he wasn't available. Yes I said, what the guys name and address. :It's a Mr James Summerville, cool and off I went.
I turned up, knocked on the door and this guy opened the door:
ME: You're Jimmy Summerville aren't you
Him: No I'm not
Me: Yes you are
Him: No I'm not
Me: Yes you are
Him: OK I am
Me: Why did you say you weren't
Him: Because I thought you'd charge me double !

For years mine was simply the intro of Love Will Tear Us Apart. Very dramatic when it went off in quiet client offices.
Thank god it wasn’t Je t'aime... moi non plus.

This thread is so much better than certain other music threads I could mention.
You get a lot of intro for your money with New Order Blue Monday
