This is near on impossible to do!
My #1 was easy... I can remember exaclty where I was and what I was doing when I first heard it.. 22 years ago!
The memory is like a 100 megapixel photo to me.. crisp and clear.
It perfectly meets Peter's requirement:

EPIC - Faith No More(1989) (Wikipedia)
La Grange - ZZ Top(1973) - Back when they were good!
The Distance - Cake(1996)

#'s 2 and 3 were just the next two that came to my head. But still great rock tracks.

edit: the eagle-eyed among us might notice the shirt Mike Patton is wearing in the video, and work out where I get my IIS username from
