Anna Begins/Counting Crows

One of the best songs, off one of the best albums from the ninteties.
Veteran Of The Psychic Wars/Blue Oyster Cult

This band's been my jam for some time now. The keys are glorious on this track.

Ring Out, Solstice Bells/Jethro Tull

Clear harmonies, 7-beat time, that epic variation at 1:50. These guys were genius songwriters.

Get Down On It/Kool & The Gang
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xJWQPdG7jE
You could've told me that this song was written last year, and I would believe it.

Rope/Foo Fighters

One of those songs that have something for everyone. The tightly executed syncopation in the verses, Mendel and Hawkins' (usual) immaculate rhythm section, and Shiflett's glorious guitar solo.
