My actual vote goes to Michael Jackson’s, Billie Jean.

That opening drum groove and bass line is about as perfect as music can be. It is so amazing in its simplicity.

yes

There's also "Jamie" (which only really awesome women are named) and "Suzanne" both by Weezer.

Excellent.

Bertha could have been a nice choice, too.

I voted for Alison since I'm a huge Elvis Costello fan and I love that song.

But honestly his song, "Veronica" takes the cake for me. It's about his grandmother, and the simple video is heartbreaking and amazing. Paul McCartney plays bass and shares songwriting credit.

also, more cowbell

Nassau Coliseum... that place was a bit of a dump... they re-did it... now it is a fancy dump. Islanders moved for a reason.

That version is only popular with a certain segment of the population that has demonstrated over many decades
a lack of knowledge, understanding and judgment...

Runaround Sue ~ Dion and the Belmonts

I could not agree more...I think they call them The NeoCons...and they just keep singing it...it is the only song they know...
