Shake your head girl, wave your ponytail
Takes me right back (when you were young)
Threw your precious gifts into the air
Watched them fall down (when you were young)
Lift up your feet and put them on the ground
You used to walk upon (when you were young)
Lift up your feet and put them on the ground
The hills were higher (when you were young)
Lift up your feet and put them on the ground
The trees were taller (when you were young)
Lift up your feet and put them on the ground
The grass was greener (when you were young)
Lift up your feet and put them on the ground
You used to walk upon (when you were young)
It's hard to pick an absolute favourite but one candidate, and probably the song I've played the most over the years, is Down In The Park by Tubeway Army.
Hmmmm think I'm gonna say Don't stop me now from Queen.
Loved it since I was seven years old and it's still the only song I can sing along to in key.
No one writes songs like Queen
Close second is Electric Feel from MGMT. I sing it in my head so much
God Save the Queen - Sex Pistols
Stairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin
Go Your Own Way - Fleetwood Mac
Life on Mars - David Bowie
Number of the Beast - Iron Maiden
I purposely only listen to it maybe a few times a year, there's something sacred about it that I always want to remain timeless with me. So when I do hear it, I still feel those exact same emotions. If that makes sense.

It wouldn't take me long
To tell you how to find it
To tell you where we'll meet
This little girl inside me
Is retreating to her favourite place
Go into the garden, go under the ivy
Under the leaves, away from the party
Go right to the rose
Go right to the white rose
I sit here in the thunder
The green on the gray
I feel it all around me
And it's not easy for me
To give away a secret
It's not safe
To go into the garden, go under the ivy
Under the leaves, away from the party
Go right to the rose
Go right to the white rose
Go into the garden, go under the ivy
Go under the leaves with me
Go right to the rose
Go right to the white rose
I'll be waiting for you
It wouldn't take me long
To tell you how to find it

The final verse kills me every time. Very moving.

I wouldn't argue too much with that as it's superb but personally I would say this track by The Blue Nile:

The front cover was enough for me.
God bless you and him always!!!

That's mine too
I love this too! And that ^ is my favourite bit.
But mine is Bitter Sweet Symphony by The Verve
An immense song.
Amazing guitar work from Gilmour.
Stay - Hurts
Born To Die - Lana Del Rey
