@SecureOwl Take On Me.

@fuzztech the weezer version is pretty good
@SecureOwl Tribute, Tenacious D
@tehfishman @SecureOwl couldn't remember the greatest song in the world...
@SecureOwl Ridiculous question. But the song I listen to most is City Wrecker, by Moonface. https://youtu.be/t4lY7OCw4ik?si=RiJNQr1eu5RMQUXT

@SecureOwl there's so many great songs it's hard to narrow it down to one for all time.
Roberta Flack's Compared to What? has struck a chord with me recently. The song was recorded in 1968 but damn if it isnt eeriely prescient when viewed in the light of the current state of things.

A little harder hitting is The Dandy Warhols / Slash tune I'd like to Help you with Your Problem

@SecureOwl That's impossible to answer. There are so many brilliant tracks that are amazing for different reasons, apples and oranges. Bohemian Rhapsody comes to mind, though.

@SecureOwl Miles Davis - Kind of Blue

The whole album is likely the best of my 650 GB music collection.
