The "They Just Don't Write 'Em Like This Anymore!" Thread

Feeling nostalgic this evening for good songs that have great lyrics, moving melodies, and wonderful vocals and instrumentation. So, I decided to start a thread about the type of songs they just don't write anymore that incorporate all of these elements and more. I hope orgers will post their favorites here--it can be rock, soul, R&B--whatever you fancy! wink Doesn't have to be any genre. Here is one I haven't heard in a long time I listened to on the radio tonight, which makes me long for the days of great songs:

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton
