    Not necessarily the type of music you're listening to but song that you praise for being too good, special, iconic etc.

    Here are some of my choices (can hardly pick one):

    1. Italian Tu Semplicita
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9YcJoT0zYQ

    2. Russian 'Tui Tui Tui' by Filip Kirkorov, though the song is not originally russian...

    3. Stand by Me - Ben King...fairly well known.

    This Charming Man by The Smiths is the correct answer here

    I See a Darkness by Will Oldham. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4iV4NwSbscg

    There are several versions including a Johnny Cash cover, which is how I discovered it cause I'm a huge Johnny Cash fan.

    The link I posted is my probably favorite version though. All of you would likely appreciate the lyrics of this song, as it deals with depression, loneliness, and disillusionment themes that can all apply to the experience of being lgbt. Resonates more with my own life than any other song I've ever heard.

    Either God Only Knows by the Beach Boys or Blackbird by the Beatles. Or perhaps Boys don't Cry by the Cure :slight_smile:

    It's really difficult because you're asking for the best, not my favourite.

    Best to me means something meaningful, creative, something that flipped everything upside down and is still remembered years later.

    So maybe a song by The Beatles? They are remembered years later, known and loved by many across generational gaps etc.

    The greatest song ever created is "Afternoon Delight" by Starland Vocal Band. And if you disagree, I will fight you...
