I'll offer up the song I have liked the longest, as in it has stayed with me for the longest time despite my tastes changing and favourite artists and composers coming and going.

John Dowland - Flow My Tears

Fuengi

It's Fake Plastic Trees by Radiohead.

I'm surprised you had to ask.

I bet one of those was because you saw my MC Miker G and DJ Sven clip. 

Tannin

I've never seen them perform so thanks for posting.. I think that was 1986 and I'd forgotten all about them.

Surely this is an impossible question? 

5 answers so far so I would say no. Let me clarify it’s greatest song in your opinion. Maybe there will be debate, argument etc but thinking the end result will be a thread that gives us a bunch of songs to listen to or revisit. 

Maybe it's just me but I don't have a greatest song. Many, many great songs but not a greatest. Depends how I'm feeling at the time.

Are we talking about a song or a particular performance of a song?

Be My Baby gets a mention above, but is its greatness due to the song itself or the production/performance? 

Whistler

Happy Birthday. What other song is sung more often or has been translated into so many languages? It is not my fabourite song but I bet it is a contender for the greatest.
