“William Blake?”
“William Blake!”

Yes, I know that we had one vote for "Waterloo Sunset" and one vote for "Do you remember Walter?".

What, no "Come Dancing"?
Wear gaudy colors, or avoid display. Lay a million eggs or give birth to one. The fittest shall survive, yet the unfit may live. Be like your ancestors or be different. We must repeat!
I would add Cheap Trick's "Surrender" to my list. Forgot about them.
and either Louie Prima or Diamond Dave singing "Just a Gigolo." I like enjoy both versions.
Bay City Rollers "Saturday Night."

Wow... you really know your Mahler! The 9th is great... the ending is fantastic. I love pretty much all of the Mahler works, but I wanted to give a good representation of my tastes on my list. 2 and 6 are favorites of mine as well, but being a trumpet player, I couldn't resist the 5th.
10 random great songs that didn't make anyone's list
1. I don't really love you anymore - Magnetic Fields
2. pork roll egg & cheese - ween
3. official ironman rally song - guided by voices
4. making plans for nigel - xtc

I think this thread has evolved from a top ten list to just personal favorites. And that's fine. Here are some more of mine....
Perfect Strangers - Deep Purple
There's No Way Out Of Here - David Gilmour
Meadows - Joe Walsh
Maybe I'm Amazed - McCartney
Bell Bottom Blues - Clapton
No More Tears - Ozzy (love the guitar)
Street Of Dreams - Rainbow

3. Life's a Dance - John Michael Montgomery
4. Write This Down - George Strait
5. Jailhouse Rock - Elvis Presley
6. Shake it Up - The Cars
7. Root Beer Rag - Billy Joel
8. My Next 30 Years - Tim McGraw

Have to add On Broadway and just about anything else by The Drifters.
"Whatever you choose, however many roads you travel, I hope that you choose not to be a lady. I hope you will find some way to break the rules and make a little trouble out there. And I also hope that you will choose to make some of that trouble on behalf of women." - Nora Ephron
Without further ado...
Neutral Milk Hotel - Gardenhead/Leave Me Alone
The Apples in Stereo - The Bird That You Can't See
The Velvet Undergound - Lady Godiva's Operation
The Black Keys - Just Couldn't Tie Me Down
The Secret Machines - Sad and Lonely
Pavement - Grounded
Built to Spill - In the Morning
Guided By Voices - I Am a Scientist
My Morning Jacket - Lowdown (gotta be the live version)
The Beatles - Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds
Great choices. I love the muted arpeggiated guitar part in the chorus of "In the Morning." It's by far my favorite BTS song.
And well, that a hugely popular hit song like "Lucy in the Sky..." was written to waltz-time is a testament to Lennon's genius. I wonder what the next popular waltz will be?
