So, my tastes are maybe not logical, but my choices, mostly due to the strength of the memories I have with them are,

#1 Night After Sidewalk - Kaki King

#2 Welcome Home - Tegan and Sara

#3 Credits song - Red Dwarf

#4 City of Angels - The Distillers

#5 Plateau - Nirvana

#6 Machinehead - Bush

There are many songs that are technically better, but these are the ones that have influenced me the most, so I think they deserve the title "greatest".

My favorites: 

1) And You and I - Yes

2) Travel is Dangerous - Mogwai

3) Scorched Earth - Van Der Graaf Generator

4) Fat Old Sun - Pink Floyd

5) He is Coming at Tokyo Station - Happy Family

6) Awaken - Yes

A mix of "greatest" and songs I like:

What's Going On - Marvin Gaye

Just Like You - Keb Mo

Someone to Love - Queen

God Only Knows - Beach Boys

Hallowed be Thy Name - Iron Maiden

Respect - Aretha Franklin

i would go on and on

Golden earring - radar love

The doors - Rider on the storm

Eric Clapton - Tears in Heaven

Van Morrison - Moondance

Pink Floyd - Wish you where here

Nazareth - love Hurt

Very interesting thread! I want to listen to every single of those.

If I don't find my new all time favorite artist in this it's like nothing.

Okay maybe not my new all time best but I AM EXPECTING SOME GREAT TRACKS! :) lol

Asking for people to make a top 6 of their best (not artist, not albums, not headphones) SONGS on a forum like Head-Fi where everyone is so dedicated and entitled to their music is a great sharing idea, good job the OP. I'm sure you can read the personality of each posters in their top 6.
