80. ABBA - The Winner Takes It All
Hankies at the ready, lesbos. 79. Johnny Cash - Hurt Razors at the ready, homos. 78. The Monkees - Daydream Believer And now to cheer you up again. Aaaaw. The Monkees. So cheerful. 77. Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five - The Message DON'T PUSH ME 'COS I'M CLOSE TO THE EDGE. I'M TRYING NOT TO LOSE MY HEAD. AHAHAHAHAHA. ****ing EPIC tune. 76. The Doors - The End Apocalypse Now was already a pretty ace movie, but this was the icing on the cake. Brilliance. 75. The Cure - Close To Me Look Stacey.X! It's like that Lady Sovereign song!! 74. Elton John - Your Song It took him ten minutes to write this song - and those short few minutes spawned possibly the simplest and sweetest love song of all time. Though a little rethink on the line "If I was a sculptor, but then again...no..." might've been in order. 73. Fleetwood Mac - The Chain Because that bassline kicking in is like downing a pint, standing up and announcing "we're off." 72. John Lennon - Jealous Guy You may be intrigued to find out I'm not including Imagine on the countdown. Don't get me wrong, it's one of the best songs of all time, but for me it's one of those "constantly rammed down your throat" ones. This is equally moving. 71. Don McLean - Crying Originally a Roy Orbison hit, I think this is one of three covers on my list (Hurt, above, being one other). He's slowed down the original and wringed every word for every single droplet of emotion he can muster. Really sad ****.

I find your lack of culture really dull.

A positive comment :O hallelujah. it's almost as if posting negative things about "my favourite songs" wasn't ever going to irritate me.
And before someone uses the 'if they're so good, you can argue against the criticism' line; not against Stacey.X and MeMyselfandI you can't. For an argument you require coherence and logic.

70. Michael Jackson - Billie Jean - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwDkoJKPr4g
He was the King of music videos as well as Pop, and if you don't know this song you're Martian. If you're just reading this out of courtesy, then please pretend I said something informative and witty. 69. Queen - Radio Ga Ga - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBUr1pSWTVI The video is heavily reminiscent of a film called Metropolis that I remember vaguely and I'm not sure where from. The song gave a certain Lady her name, and is my particular favourite from Queen. 68. Roxy Music - Virginia Plain Well, I'm a massive fan of glam-rock, and Bryan Ferry is enough. Throwing Brian Eno into the fray rapidly boosts its appeal. I feel like I should be in a cocktail-bar in Miami listening to this. 67. Bob Dylan - Lay Lady Lay He's more known for his nasal, high vocals in the majority of his works, but this proved he can pretty much do anything. 66. Bob Marley - Redemption Song The name Bob has another musical icon here. It's a tragedy he died so young. 65. Aretha Franklin - I Say A Little Prayer The woman is one of the greatest voices of all time. 64. The Beatles - Hey Jude - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BD3ovfZXO5Q This reminds me of a time last year where I was with a friend, driving home, and caught in a traffic jam on the motorway. It was summer, it was evening, and this song helped make it one of those beautiful-despite-the-circumstances moments. 63. Ben E. King - Stand By Me The tune has been sampled to death, which is a slight testament to its influence. Beautiful stuff. 62. Joy Division - Atmosphere The title says it all really. It gives me goosebumps, it's so tense and encapsulating that it can't help but move me in some way. 61. Chuck Berry - You Never Can Tell Because this scene is probably one of my favourite movie scenes of all time. Brilliant movie with a brilliant soundtrack - Chuck Berry is one of Rock and Roll's GODS. Johnny B. Goode is a much better song, but this represents a lot more to me.

A few of my favourite songs in there I'm really enjoying this thread Shaun, finding some new songs and artists I've not paid attention to before

60. Nina Simone - I Put A Spell On You
Best female voice ever. End of discussion. 59. Oasis - Wonderwall - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hzrDeceEKc Well...it's one of those "everybody knows it and will sing along when it comes on" songs. And it's genuinely a classic track. 58. The Kinks - Sunny Afternoon They're often overlooked and tragically so. They've got a string of phenomenal songs and this is one of my favourites. It has a strange awkwardness to it that's kind of endearing. 57. The Jackson Five - I Want You Back - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vt9TUy0_GiM Without a doubt the best pop debut of all time. 56. The Who - Teenage Wasteland What the hell is that instrument at the beginning? It reminds me of fairgrounds and amusement arcades, which pretty much shape up my most enjoyable experiences as ein Kind. Pretty much every instrument is demonstrating its peak abilities in this track - Keith Moon being the obvious man for icon-status. 55. The Pogues - Fairytale of New York - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7exy38uLN1Y It's the only Christmas song I'll include on the list, and only because I see it as much more than that. It's a beautiful piece of art, with humble and genuine emotion in its conception and later poignancy in the sad death of Kirsty MacColl. Oh and Christmas isn't Christmas unless you spend the week before it drunkenly singing this in pubs. 54. Led Zeppelin - Stairway to Heaven They always struck me until recently as one of those bands that are overrated beyond belief. But this song is like masterpiece after masterpiece after masterpiece. It's the musical equivalent of moving on from Van Gogh's Starry Night to Monet's Water Lilies. 53. Martha Reeves and the Vandellas - Nowhere to Run It has a factory-line sound to it and that's rather reflective of the Motown label's knack for churning glorious hit after glorious hit out at us. They're probably my favourite girl group after the Supremes. More from both later  52. David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust One of the best albums of all time and definitely the best musical alter-ego of all time. Everything about it excites me - the weird Warhol artistry, the glam rock sounds, the ambiguous sexuality... 51. Nat King Cole - Unforgettable What a voice. You could be peeling grated cheese off a Subway wrapper listening to this and still feel like the King of the world. Its use in the opening sequence to the "Watchmen" movie is perfection.
