    I'll have to listen to these Hugh, thanks for sharing man.

    I always found the Deftones strangely cool.

    Yeah Eddy, U2 does a killer cover there to start off Rattle and Hum.

    or

    U2 certainly tends to deliver on openers, particularly before 2000.


    Opens October



    and of course



    Just silly, actually.

    Beautiful Day opens How to Dismantle as well.

    It's the song following the intro not sure if it counts as an opener but it's child support music, yao ming. Looking deep into her eyes, while your hand strokes her hair and she says "Te amo, Randy".
