"Tangled Up And Blue" by Bob Dylan. I believe Dylan is the greatest songwriter of the 20th century, if not of all time.

No brainer, The Star Spangled Banner by Francis Scott Key:

"Born to Run"- Bruce Springsteen. Maybe not the greatest song ever written but it's up there.

[FONT=helvetica, arial]Beyond the Palace hemi-powered drones scream down the boulevard
The girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors
And the boys try to look so hard
The amusement park rises bold and stark
Kids are huddled on the beach in a mist
I wanna die with you Wendy on the streets tonight
In an everlasting kiss[/FONT]

"Behind Blue Eyes" -- written by Pete Townshend

I'll vote for another Who/Townshend song from the same album - "Won't get fooled again". In these trying times perhaps we all need to revisit those lyrics...

Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss...

Sums it up pretty well for me...!

 

[Paul Wozniak]

One of the best albums of all time!
