    Waterloo Sunset - The Kinks

    Meant to be the best song ever written.

    Always been my favourite Rob; but best is such a subjective choice.
    Good shout on Buffalo Springfield btw.

    As everyone seems to be putting forward 3 choices I'll also throw in:-
    Good Vibrations - The Beach Boys
    I am the Walrus - The Beatles

    Funny that on another site this was done recently, suppose I will have to go with my answer from there. Sunshine Underground - Borders.

    I might nick the idea from that forum and set up a Spotify playlist of these (well the tracks that are on there), I'll pick the 1st song mentioned by each person to keep it simple.
