That's a tough one to list, though 1977 would also be Knowing Me Knowing You for me.

 

1978 Baker Street (Gerry Rafferty)

1976 Dancing Queen (Abba)

 

Most other years aren't so clear cut and I'd probably change my mind often, though I think Gotye will probably stay best record of 2012 for me...

 

cheers Alex! Maybe when I have more definite ones listed....

 

john:)

From the year I was born until 1999:

 

1988: Erasure - A Little Respect

1989: Black Box - Ride on Time. PWL/Continential Remix of London Boys - Requiem a close second.

1990: ...I kinda wanna say Primal Scream - Come Together, but the mix I like is the one that appeared on Screamadelica a year later, so for an actual 1990 single maybe Roxette - It Must Have Been Love.

1991: Bizarre Inc - Such a Feeling, although this is an incredible year for dance so there's a lot of competition.

1992: U2 - One

1993: 2 Unlimited - No Limit

1994: Oasis - Whatever, though on a hot summer's day it's Gloworm - Carry Me Home.

1995: Impossible to decide between N-Trance - Set You Free and Pulp - Common People.

1996: Josh Wink - Higher State of Consciousness (Dexy & Jones remix) amidst another great year for dance.

1997: Gala - Freed From Desire

1998: Fatboy Slim - The Rockafeller Skank

1999: System F - Out of the Blue (best year for music ever!). Gouryella - Gouryella for those really really hot days.

 

As with all 'favourite song' lists, it's in a constant state of flux, but that's what they are for now :P
