Vogue by Madonna is mines...It's a classic and I love the moves, the style and the aura of the song! --I'll remember it forever! :D
Bad Religion, Do what you want, originally released on there Suffer album... This has been my theme song since I was a teenager... It's what got me into punkrock in the first place.
The lyrics are explicit so you have been warned.

Greensleeves (Trad.) 13th Century
That songs reminds me of Megan Fox dancing in the wilderness.
(weird I know)
This is a classic. There are hundreds of versions of this song.... the original by Ella sends shivers down my spine... Julie London's version oozes sensuality.... but Nina's version is gold... her voice washes over me in waves of ecstacy... ... if my pillow could talk
imagine what it would've said...
hmmm, maybe you can just listen to it here: http://www.mp3raid.com/search/download-mp3/6360233/nina_simone_cry_me_a_river.html (http://www.mp3raid.com/search/download-mp3/6360233/nina_simone_cry_me_a_river.html)
"Beginnings" by Chicago
I don't have any attachment to the lyrics really, I just think it's a great song altogether. The use of wind instruments is PERFECT. And I wish Chicago could have kept the sound...

I liked Greensleeves since I was a kid, but at the Fillmore, its played at the end of every show, has been going back to the first Bill Graham Show. He wanted a way to let the entire staff know that the show was done. So that was it, play Greensleeves. Matter of fact the show sheet for every show even says "Show's Over: When you hear Greensleeves."
We have a CD with something like 15 different versions of it, from the Fantasia on Greensleeves by Vaughan Williams (very pretty, get the version by the Academy of St. Martin's in the Fields) to the most popular one (at least at the shows I'm there for), which is the John Coltrane one from Africa/Brass, but the Jeff Beck version is tasty, and we've got Richie Blackmore and Jethro Tull, and a bunch of others, so we can get pretty close to putting on a Greensleeves in keeping with the spirit of the show.
Interesting,
Before I looked at the posts I was thinking who could go past Beethoven's Great Mass, the realised that is more than a song. My second thought was King Henry VIII's Greensleeves.

Jefferson Airplane's "We Can be Together" , it takes me back to some good times as a teenager, (among all the bad).
"We are all outlaws in the eyes of America(insert your country), and we're very proud of ourselves."

Greensleeves (Trad.) 13th Century
I was so pleased when I found out that this tune had nonreligious lyrics (Greensleeves beats What Child is This any day; the only thing I liked about the latter was the tune, and it turned out to be stolen). What Child is This tainted Greensleeves some, but I think I've managed to get over that, thankfully.
