Best song ever

[Jeannette]

In the Netherlands we have various versions of The Top 2000, 4000 or so on the radio each year before Christmas. I don't know if other countries do this as well. Most of the time Bohemian Rapsody from Queen wins. Perhaps we can do an Oscraps list of best songs ever.
So I thought if we all write down our 5 most favorite songs, we can find out what our/Oscraps best song ever is.
No prizes, just for fun.
I will start in the post below this one.
Hope to see you all playing along!

 

[Jeannette]

1. Paradise by the dashboard light - Meatloaf
2. Piano man - Billy Joel
3. Fast car - Tracy Chapman
4. Pokerface (acoustic version) - Lady Gaga
5. Space Oddity - David Bowie.

And when I saw your list I couldn't believe that I had left off "Let's Stay Together" by Al Green. It was my first LP and I really wore it out!

That's one of those songs that when you hear the FIRST note, you know what it is! I can't stand still when I hear it.
