Their best song

Madonna- Ray of Light

I'll see your Stevie, r6...

...and raise you...

...two Lindseys.

OP, great choice. It sounds like nothing else on that album.

Capture The Light...

The best of NKOTB

Head over Heels for Roland and Curt!

Shouldn't Do That - Kaja(googoo)

I think ONJ showed plenty of vocal control with this great song -

Tomorrow - Todrick Hall

Loofer

Eddie's best :

"Torch" for these guys...

Lots of singers could've made "Take My Breath Away" a smash hit

but I think this one belongs to Terri & none can take it from her =

Milli Vanilli’s cover of We Don’t Talk Anymore.

Crunchy Love Affaire (which reminds me of "True" by S. Ballet which is fine by me) - Blue Mercedes

This

Or this

Or this

Depeche Mode - Home

Prince - Mountains

Noprism - Pantherbeat

The Osmonds - Crazy Horses

Bright Light Bright Light - Love Part II

I wish Lindsey didn’t wear so much makeup

The B-52's - Dirty Back Road

The Human League - Love Action (I Believe In Love)

Angel - Expose

Jack Jack Jackie!

Ordinary - Wayne Brady

Coming For You - R. Ocasek

Belinda Carlisle - Mad About You

Soon - The Cars

Free -- "All Right Now"

Fearless - Pink Floyd

Sorry R45 but I think this one was better -

James - Sit Down

Elton John - Simple Life

This is one of Cher's great tunes that folks can't say she sounds like Mr. Ed on :

Hippychick from Soho - I wish they had made more music. I remember being barely primary school, hearing this, and loving it.

Pet Shop Boys - Paninaro

Sometimes by the wonderful Gerry Cinnamon

John Denver- Country Road

Slap it into the next century my brother!

R56 I loved Wild Montana Skies best from John Denver!

Better version than R57 with a much better keyboard player and drummer that is in the pocket

Devo - "Going Under" (1981).

Warren Zevon's best:

Michael Jackson - Billie Jean

Kate Bush, "Running Up That Hill"

Crash Test Dummies - Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm

If I didn't know better I'd think George Michael stole some of his sounds over the years.

Hard to believe they're both gone at such young ages.

Cyndi's best =

After hearing so many of their hits I keep coming back to this tune -

Moby's "Into the Blue" featuring Mimi Goese

Sea of Love, by The National. An effortless song with a great video homage to some Russian punk band. Matt is very easy on the eyes as usual, but even more so here.

Dead or Alive - "Brand New Lover"

Aloha...

What Makes A Woman - Katy Perry

Paula's "Missing You"

I recently discovered this great gem on another DL thread & believe it belongs on this one =

Marble Halls - Enya

Paul Young's "Soldier's Things"

I agree about TMBA, R24, but this is their Hamlet:

Patti Smith - "Dancing Barefoot"

Boy George's best -

Their best song evah =

Prince - Purple Rain

Taylor Swift - Style

The best Beatles song is "I Am the Walrus."

In terms of Lennon's attempts at "something more."

Why is it better than "A Day in the Life"?

Because it is raucous, sharper in its observations, less pompous in its humor, more "fun" in being engaging and surprising, and plays the same theme as "Day in the Life" with a more-developed view. If you want an existential void don't pretend-sing "I'd love to turn you on," as if YOU have any answers. "I Am the Walrus" is braver in making it clear that in the raucous activity of life there are no "answers."

Also, "Dear Prudence" is better than "Strawberry Fields" for the same reason.

McCartney's approaches are very different - he wanted to entertain (usually), likes his themes to be overt and more conventionally clever than Lennon's, remained connected to older song stylings, and had less murky depths.

Cake - Rock 'n" Roll Lifestyle

Obscure until recently, but so awesome. It's like the B52s were born 20 years earlier. DANCE DANCE DANCE DANCE DANCE

Opportunities (Let's Make Lots Of Money) - Pet Shop Boys

Op is bipolar and posts stupid music threads.

^ Sorry for the R92, R91 & R90 songs as they were meant for another music thread about $$$.

Pet Shop Boys - Left To My Own Devices

Better To Have Lost In Love...

Annie's best solo...

All Over The World - Pet Shop Boys

R93 Thanks for bumping!

Everyone should hear this song at least once in their life & I'm not a big fan of the little troll doll =

Generationals "Tell Me Now"

Give In To Me - MJ

I still think Maria is Blondie's best song

Masterpiece - Madonna

Debbie's best solo song...

Joni. This arrangement:

A great song that showed off their range & should've been a bit hit for them -

R109 Not a fan of that song, but I always thought Two Times Blue was Debbie Harry's best solo song

Haunting Me...

Good Morning Sunshine - Aqua

Sorry R112 but I think her golden voice sounds shot to death in that one.

I wish kd sang more upbeat songs like this one which I think is her best =

Others have covered it (Gloria Estefan for one) but none beats the original hit -

I used to like a lot of songs by Cowboy Junkies, but I think "Hollow as a Bone" is their best

Dolly Parton - Light Of A Clear Blue Morning

October Song...

Muse's best is Map of the Problematique - in my opinion

Black Rain - Keane

Aretha Franklin - I Never Loved A Man (The Way I Love You)

Topaz = B-52's

Emmylou Harris - One Of These Days

Stevie Wonder - Living for the City

I liked this cut better than "Praying For Time" & wish it was his lead single off of that album -

Chaka Khan - Ain't Nobody (Feat Rufus)

Sade - Is It A Crime

The Cranberries: Personal favourites are Linger and Promises but Zombie is their best.

R135 ‘Dreams’ is the Cranberries best song. imho

Following - The Bangles

Insecurity...

Sting's "Moon Over Bourbon Street"

The Police - King Of Pain

Teenage Wildlife-David Bowie

Some Velvet Morning

Stronger through the years-Roxy Music

Soaked - Adam Lambert

Sexy Mr. Botti...

Easy To Lie - Night Drive

Could be this or several others...

TLC’s No Scrubs, the album version without Left Eye. Controversial I know but I always found the rap at bit jarring and prefer to listen to it as a smooth rnb song with the killer chorus in the spotlight.

Calle 13 - Atrevete te te

Stromae - papaoutai

Love & Devotion - Real McCoy

Wounded Bird - Charles & Eddie

Sara's best...

Wild Horses - The Sundays
