What classic rock song starts out weirdest?

Question

CLASSIC rock only.

Answer 1

The first song to come to mind was Pink Floyd's "One of These Days", but when I saw someone else had already thought of that one, I came up with another:
"Immigrant Song" by
Led Zeppelin

Intro sounds just like a herd of rampaging elephants on psychedelics!

Answer 2

Bob Dylan's 'Desolation Row.'

Never heard it. Do yourself a favor and do a lyrics search and read the lyrics.

Here is the first verse (the song is 11 minutes long, by the way):

'They're selling postcards of the hanging, they're painting
the passports brown

The beauty parlor is filled with sailors, the circus is in
town

Here comes the blind commissioner, they've got him in a
trance

One hand is tied to the tight-rope walker, the other is in
his pants

And the riot squad they're restless, they need somewhere to
go

As Lady and I look out tonight, from Desolation Row'

Answer 3

One of these days by Pink Floyd on the album Meddle

Answer 4

Pink floyd, "several species of small furry animal gathered together in a cave and grooving with a pict" It don't get any weirder than that.

Answer 5

does metallica count like back in the day metallica with their 209342920582 minutes before words even were said well seriously like 2 minutes in most of their songs

Answer 6

Yes' "Going for The One" just has a weirdness about it, one that is retained even as the track itself becomes more conventional.
