Other overwhelming-on-first-listen songs:

Virginia Plain – Roxy
Problems – Sex Pistols
Born Under Punches – T. Heads
In the City – The Jam
Chartered Trips – Hüsker Dü

Also, the first time I heard "Mystery Dance" was when a local band played it at a garage party. Man, I'd love to go back and relive that moment again ... except without the curfew and the zits.
