It's got to be "This is what she's like" by Dexy's Midnight Runners
The whole song is Kevin Roland describing what his love is NOT like.
"you know the kind of people who put creases in their old Levi's. The type that use expressions like tongue and cheek. The ones who parade all they're possessions and put super and fabulous after every sentence they spit out.....well she's not like that"
when he does describe her it's just a series of notes emenating from his entire being (in my humble opinion - on par with any Aretha Franklin Ad Lib)
A very close second would have to be Sidney Bechet "Love For Sale" the only song I know of that has brought this Grown Man to tears and made me weak at the knees.
Do yourself a favour and get those songs now!
P.S. "This is what she's like" has THE BEST "1.2.3.4" in music history. (Sorry Bruce)
