You Only Live Once (First Impressions of Earth - The Strokes) is maybe the best opener to an album. Thoughts?

While listening to the album this morning, I had a thought. You Only Live Once is a perfect transition from The Strokes previous two albums (Room On Fire, Is This It), to the evolved, more mature sound on display in this album. It bridges the albums so perfectly. What do you all think? What are your favorite album openers?

Also, I'm new to tildes, a reddit refugee (redfugee?). Really glad to be joining the community!
