If we're talking in popularity then it really should be called "The most popular song" as Best imply's one's personal opinion.

Biggest-selling of all time is Elton John's "Candle In The Wind".

But as for being well-known, I'd say Michael Jackson's Thriller or The Spice Girls' Wannabe.

Most popular song on youtube is Avril Lavigne - Girlfriend.
