Greatest song of all-time?

What is your favorite song of all-time and why?
Mine is:
Something - The Beatles
YouTube - "something" by the beatles

The song just always puts me in a good mood, and i love the music as well as the vocals. The song was way ahead of it's time

not really a "song" but Mozart's Requiem especially the Lacrimosa movement
YouTube - Mozart - Requiem - Lacrimosa

because It's so beautiful...

as far as songs

Death's Voice of the Soul:
YouTube - Death - Voice Of The Soul

This song is so emotionally heavy with no words and just 3 guitars

Also, Opeth's To Bid You Farewell

because it rules

Let's Groove-Earth Wind and Fire

or....

YouTube - Cheeseburger in Paradise

Didn't think anyone would beat me to that one...

Second place in my book would be Yanni - The rain must fall.

I would hardly put Yanni in the same category as Mozart, but I think it's very good (I also really like Karen Briggs the violin player). Seems to always put me in a good mood, even if I'm not paying attention.

I have to say

It's hard to not bust out singing when listening to that song. lol

Lately I would say "nothing but flowers" by talking heads. Peter Gabriel has a live version of "Steam" on his "Secret World" album thats pretty bad ass. I told a dj at a strip club to play steam and I'll never forget those bitches showing everything they had to that song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lOEIRI5HSuQ
