If you had to choose 3 tracks in order from an album, what would they be? i.e. you could choose tracks 1,2,3, tracks 5,6,7 etc.

It must be a 'proper' album i.e. single artist, no greatest hits or other compilation albums allowed.

Here's a couple of examples to start you off:

U2, The Joshua Tree:
#1 Where the Streets Have No Name
#2 Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
#3 With or Without You

Michael Jackson, Thriller:
#4 Thriller
#5 Beat It
#6 Billie Jean

For those that think there is a perfect album and you would choose any 3 tracks from it, tough :P You must name 3 specific tracks.
 
Killers Hot Fuss. I love the first 5.

1-3 or 3-5.

1.Jenny Was A Friend Of Mine
2.Mr Brightside
3.Smile Like You Mean It
4.Somebody Told Me
5.All These Things That I've Done
 
Rise Against - Revolutions Per Minute.

1. - Black Masks and Gasoline.
2. - Heaven Knows.
3. - Dead Ringer.
 
You could make this more interesting by not allowing songs that were released as singles - literally three album-only tracks in a row. In which case my most recent would be:

Oasis - Dig Out Your Soul

1. Bag It Up
2. The Turning
3. Waiting For The Rapture

Otherwise:

Third Eye Blind - Third Eye Blind

2. Narcolepsy
3. Semi-Charmed Life
4. Jumper

Although I'd be happy with any three consecutive tracks off that album.

I can trump that with a straight album of win in my personal opinion of course, but I dare not post it for the absolute ribbing I will get.
 
Lifehouse, No Name Face

11 - Somewhere in between
12 - Everything

Edit: And

+Live+ - Throwing Copper
4 - Iris
5 - Lightning Crashes
6 - Top

5. Bones
6. (Nice Dream)
7. Just
