I think this would have to be
Imagine by John Lennon - a beautiful song with incredible sentiments!

My favorite song tends to change from week to week, depending on my moods, but if you go by what songs have stood the test of time...
"Rime Of The Ancient Mariner" - Iron Maiden
"Wildside" - Motley Crue
"Moonlight Sonata" - Ludwig van Beethoven
Dance like it hurts; Love like you need money; Work like someone is watching.
Never criticize someone until you've walked a mile in their shoes. That way, when you DO criticize them, you are a mile away, and you have their shoes.

Favourite would have to be
Three is the Magic Number, not the original (although it is FAB!) but the cover by Blind Melon. It's a shame Shannon indulged so much in drugs they took him but would he have been the same without them?!
There's so few voices in this world that could convey emotion like he could.
Let's relight this forum 
so many good songs out there, so I'll have to pick a few
Hey Jude - Beatles
Teenage Kicks - Can't remember the artist tho
Urban Spaceman - Bonzo Dog Do Dah Band (always makes me smile )
Space Oddity - David Bowe

Fly me to the moon - the 50's version by Julie London

If I really have to pick:
Third Uncle, by Brian Eno. I loved the Bauhaus cover of this song - thought it was rockin' and powerful... until I heard the original, then I thought it was trivial and weak. For a song written in the late '60, the original version is way ahead of it's time.
btw: Fly me to the moon was my father's favorite song! (He was actually an astronaut during the Apollo era, beleive that or not, though he had to wait till 1985 to actually fly - on a shuttle of course)

My would definitely have to be Somebody by Depeche Mode. It brings back such sweet memories, and really is quite heartfelt.

psst, Psylent Bob, Teenage Kicks was by The Undertones. Its also the favourite song of a man who's introduced me to most of my favourite music - the legendary John Peel
so anyway, favourite song, eh? erm...
when i'm then it's "why hip hop sucks in '96" - DJ Shadow
when i'm then it's "Century of Fakers" - Belle & Sebastian

I was always scared with my mother's obsession with the good scissors. It made me wonder if there were evil scissors lurking in the house somewhere.

That's been bugging me all day!
Apparently the master of all tunes, John Peel, is doing a DJ set @ Fabric on Friday. Sounds like it should be cool.
as long as he doesn't say anything, his voice always used to send me to sleep and I'd miss the best songs!
