Since I don't listen to classical, my 10 perfect are:
Heatwave-Martha Reeves and the Vandellas(best girl-group song ever. Period.)
Legs-ZZTop
Long Train Running-Doobie Brothers(quite possibly THE best opening riff and percussions ever)
I'll Be Around-Spinners(Philly sound personified)
Love Song-The Cure
Smooth-Carlos Santana and Rob Thomas(genius guitar)
Bohemian Rhapsody-Queen
Yesterday-The Beatles
Knights in White Satin-Moody Blues
I'm Your Captain/Closer to Home-Grand Funk Railroad ( rock simplicity at its finest)
Of course, 'perfect' is subjective and some of these aren't favorites of mine, maybe just the first three; but, at their times of release, they made an impact, maybe raised the bar a bit and were out of the norm at the time.
Honorable mention has to go to "Overture" from the Tommy album.
