I'm a huge Van Morrison fan (and finally fulfilled my bucket list dream of seeing him in April at NOLA Jazz fest). I love Into the Mystic and the whole album of Moondance (definitely a desert island dozen pick). However, my favorite track on the record, and probably my favorite Van the Man song is Caravan.

But Into the Mystic is a great song.

My nomination for this thread is Won't Get Fooled Again.

To answer the question, yes, there are a lot of songs better than almost everything posted here so far.

Awesome. What are they? There are some bad *** songs listed. Honestly far surpassed my expectations of this thread. Can't wait to see your contribution.

Are you going to list one? I would truly be interested in yours also.

Oh, and didn't mean to offend. I realize everyone has different tastes and note that country music is just simply low on my list.

Of course. That's why I said everyone has different tastes. Were you going to suggest any?

Thing about this is it's a great topic but all the answers are so subjective. Especially if a song has some meaning to you.

Old Time Rock And Roll however is objectively terrible.

Here's one that I absolutely love even though I can take or leave Neil Young and don't like Dave Matthews but he does a great job covering this awesome groove.

Fine. Some possibilities:

Stairway to Heaven
Cocaine
Smells Like Teen Spirit
Old Time Rock and Roll
Hey Jude
Jeremy
Nothin but a Hounddog
Stressed Out
Back in Black
Freebird
Light my Fire
One

Almost said stairway, but like hey Jude or let it be, it felt too obvious. I love these threads.
