"Awake" is pretty good and "A Change of Seasons" is fun. If you are looking for the Dream Theater like sound without the vocals try Liquid Tension Experiment . The second album is probably the better of the two, but the first is album is damn good as well. Liquid Tension Experiment consists of John Petrucci, Mike Portnoy, Tony Levin, and Jordan Rudess. All members of the present day line up of Dream Theater less of course Tony Levin.

Images & Words is an excellent starting point.

Scenes from a Memory is also an incredbile album,and my personal favorite.

Okay, I have downloaded a couple DTsongs and they haven't really grabbed me.  I know that many bands, especially in the progressive genre, take getting used to, and sometimes you have to start listening to the right stuff to get into a band.  If someone wanted to get into Yes, I wouldn't tell them to download Tales, because it would most likely turn them off with it's complexity.  I'm hoping this is what happened with me and Dream Theater, because everyone seems to love them except me.  They have a lot of albums, and it is a little intimidating.  So where should I start, cause I am lost.
