Just to throw a change-up into the mix, here's a Neapolitan masterpiece, sung by the best tenor(ish) since Pav:

Many things, to keep our lives
Lives going, so many things
We need so damn many things

which james you listening to kilo, my favourite live band?
Whiplash but just moving onto Semisonic, it's times like this when a mixing desk would be quite handy 🙂
Cat Stevens - how can I tell you
OR
Water boys - a man is in love.
Actually there are far too many to list.
Prince - the original of nothing compares to you.
It could be a different song tomorrow but right now,
(sorry, song doesn't start til a minute in)
Every single hour it changes. Right now it's Rockets Fall On Rocket Falls. GSYBE

Count Zero, I remember hearing that song for the first time. I was in Sainsbury's car park and Mike Harding played it, just sat in my car absolutely spell bound.
An amazing piece of music.
It is that. It breaks my heart thinking how young she was when she died, and in such a stupid fashion; brain haemorrhage after falling down stairs, and not getting properly checked over. Such a waste, I always wonder what she could have gone on to create had she lived.
Actually, not quite so difficult: Sandy left a bunch of unfinished songs behind, the lovely Thea Gilmore was approached to finish them, which she did on the album Don't Stop Singing.
I can't recommend this album highly enough, Thea and her husband Nigel, who did the arrangements, did Sandy proud, I think she'd be thrilled with the results. Sadly, no YouTube available, but look for Frozen Time and Glistening Bay on Last FM.
Its hard to love a man whose legs are bent and paralysed
Well just going along with the premise that it's possible to have one favourite song... I give you
Frank Zappa. Whipping Post (a cover of the Allman Brothers Band classic).
Varies but these two are consistently up there.
Smoke gets in your eyes, by The Platters, that song sure whips up a lotta dust.
This.
Right Now?
Probably Shipbuilding by Robert Wyatt
or
(obviously)
or
Tough one-
Waterboys - The whole of the moon
or
The Undertones - Teenage Kicks
or
House of pain - Jump Around
or can I have
Pink Floyd - Wish you were here - the whole album
Varies, but this one always manages to be in the top 5
