What is your favorite classic song?

i realize there are all age groups here. we all like to share our favorite tracks in music. some of them are classics, some are covers, some have been on the top 100, some have been one-hit-wonders, some are current, and some will be new sounds in the music world.
please share by posting your favorites. i love music as do most. so please post your fav. i hope this thread can be a place where i/we can listen, appreciate and learn about the diverse world of music from each other. nod

here's mine. (my mom loved this song - she'd dance around the kitchen to it. this song always makes me think of her.]

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

When I think of classic songs I think of really old songs that sound timeless and still sound good when they are covered by contemporary artists.

With that said:


Everyday People - Sly & Family Stone
I'll Be Good To You - Brothers Johnson
One Nation Under A Groove - George Clinton/Funkadelic
Kathy's Clown - Everly Bros.
Unchained Melody - Righteous Bros.
1999 - Prince
Suspicious Minds - Elvis
A Change is Gonna Come - Sam Cooke
Your Love Keeps Lifting Me... - Jackie Wilson
Yearning For Your Love - Gap Band
Tiny Dancer - Elton John
Lady Marmalade - La Belle
If You Ask Me Too - Pattie LaBelle
If You Think You're Lonely Now - Bobby Womack
Feenin' - Jodeci
