Riffs and Hooks
How about posting a list some of your favorite opening licks here? You know, the songs that have something that grabs your attention immediately?
I'll start it out with the opening few bars of Creedence Clearwater Revival's Up Around the Bend and the Rolling Stones' Happy.
There are a shit-ton of others but those will get the ball rolling.

Got lot's of those...
The beginning of Crazy On You, by Heart is a big favorite and a quick thought.
More than just a riff though...

Here is a classic - Smoke on the water, Deep Purple

Green Grass And High Tides
Not particularly complex, but if you can't peg it in about 4 notes...

Doesn't need to be complex, it just needs to grab you. And that one does.
